Sabah: Foot of the Mountain (3rd Day)



We came to the Foot of the Mountain.
It is such a lovely place
(nothing like that hot & humid what we experienced yesterday)
Oh! Yes! Its a 4 hours ride - just to get this place.
(that explains the change of the weather)

You will see all the different types of plants & flowers which I manage to take here.
This is where it all starts (the first step in climbing the Mount Kinabalu)
apparently it had turned into a francise and so, its very much expensive compared to the years before (Its about RM700 per person now)

















.
I was taking the picture of this flowers (above)
and my friend took up from afar (below)
(Just in case - you might be wondering what we were doing in this picture)

We spotted few squirrels which seemed to be very friendly, taking food from our hands.
I had the close encounter here.

A nice memory of the mountain side.
