Road Trip to Muara Tebas and Kampung Bako

Date: 9th February 2011


Mum and I (at first) decided to take the Rapid Kuching bus to Bako this morning and it was later last night that Dad reminded us that we can drive there on our own and it will save us a lot of hassle to wait for bus, to sit in the bus for a long time, to chase after the bus when it comes and more. So, we decided to drive there. Aaron came along.

We had breakfast at Kim Joo, Carpenter Street before the drive through the one-and-only-toll in Kuching and headed up to Muara Tebas. Little did we know we were heading there until we saw the roadsign. We took a detour to Ching San Yan (Green Hill) for a visit. There were quite a lot of people as it is still Chinese New Year.


We saw a crab jumping from the table and ran off *laughs* We then drove the old road to Kampung Bako and reached a small jetty, parked the car and came down by the river to take photographs. A little drive further, we reached Bako National Park Terminal where Rapid Kuching and the other shuttles from Kuching will bring the tourists to this terminal to catch a boat to the park.


And yes! We had a great time this morning, driving around the other side of Kuching. There's more places to explore and I'll be back with Mum to explore them soon!

ABSOLUTELY GLAD TO BE HOME!
