The beautiful Sealers Cove, only accessible by foot or by boat.
Clever Claude and Lovely Lidiya organised a couples' camping trip at Sealers Cove, Wilson's Prom. I would highly recommend to anyone who has never been camping before - you gotta try it at least once! This weekend brought back some delicious memories of family camping trips during my childhood and also my high school days...

Coming thru...
hey fi, looks like great fun! you still aching? hehe. i remember that i ached for an entire week after climbing mt. kinabalu! and i almost fell down the stairs the day i came back as i didn't know my knees would buckle. haha.
miss u
love, vix
Vicky!!! You're a blogger! But of course you are. :)
I'm not aching at all today ~ the only bits that hurt are the scratch I got on my foot and one of my toes where
I scratched it on a rock because I was wearing flip-flops climbing the rocks instead of shoes, silly me.
A 10km walk along is really nothing compared to Mt Kinabalu. James and I still have to get ourselves up there. Would you go again? Maybe we can organise a reunion there! LOL - we can all stay with my parents, grandma has a huge house!
babe, its so sweet how the two of you have a joint blog. haha. i wonder if i'll ever do that with jay... =) you're a much more regular blogger than me - i can never seem to find much time to sit and reflect on what i should write so its mostly rushed and in comment-form.
i'd go mt. k again! we SHOULD have a reunion there - with brian and roger as well! =) hugs
Vix, totally. Not just my bro Brian but BLiu too. And really anyone who wants to go! Ben Lim apparently lives in KL too now, did you know that?
no i didn't know abt ben lim. who'd u hear that from? if he is then roger should hook up w/ him. and i'll be in KL 25-28 oct as well. hey what are your christmas plans?
