our meals are sedap! which means yummy.

In the morning we left Sepilok Jungle Resort and travelled
two hours to Kinabatangan. We stopped by at the town on the way to look around
and buy a snack and leech socks. Our destination was the Tungog Eco camp that
is a cooperative run by the orang sungai
(river people) of Kinabatangan.  When we arrived at the reception area we were
introduced to our guides and briefed about what we were going to be doing. Then
we had a yummy lunch and after that travelled along the river by boat for 10-15
minutes to the Eco Camp. When we arrived we got assigned our rooms. The guys
were all in a big dorm beside the main kitchen and reception area and the girls
are in rooms of two or three along a path in the forest. The rooms are little
bungalows.  The rooms are triangular
shaped on stilts a few metres above the ground with a small deck. We had a
little bit of time to relax and then we met up for a river cruise to spot the
local wildlife.  It is really beautiful
here and the music of the jungle is so relaxing. We saw four different species
of monkeys plus a few birds and a big lizard in a tree. After we got back we
had dinner and went on a night walk. The walk went off the trail and through
puddles of mud. We spotted a few small fluffy birds and a lot of little eyes poking
through the trees. After that we were all very tired so we went straight to
bed. We all had a great day.
