Sleepless night

One of the worst things that can happen to me is to be unable to sleep at night. Usually, I cannot sleep because I'm stressed, sad or bored. At the moment, I'm feeling a mixture of sad and bored...getting a bit stressed considering I need to work 9-6 tomorrow.

As a matter of fact, I've been very fortunate and blessed. I cannot remember the last time I could not fall asleep. Praise God and thank Him! I wish to love Him more and unto Him sufficieth.

Say: God sufficeth all things above all things, and nothing in the heavens or in the earth but God sufficeth.  Verily, He is in Himself the Knower, the Sustainer, the Omnipotent.

Padas River White Water Rafting

I managed to squeeze in a day trip to Padas River white water rafting during my trip to Kota Kinabalu end of last August. According to my research, Padas River is supposed to be the most exciting water rafting place for tourist in KK. The water rafting was fun but the excitement was not comparable to the one I had back in the Zambezi River in Zimbabwe.

However, the journey to Pangi village where we had the rafting, had been eventful. To get to Pangi village, it took me a couple of hours of car ride from KK town to Beaufort town. From Beaufort, I had to board another few hours of train ride to reach Pangi. The train ride was the more interesting train ride I have ever had in my life.

House along the railway track, the train would stop as and when needed for passengers to board or alight

I was extremely tempted to ask the train driver to let me drive the train with them

Just like the first one, the trains do not lock the doors

Simply scenic and breath-taking scenery
