Arrival!!

K, took the MRT to Kranji then the 170 bus to the checkpoint. Should have bought a single paper bus ticket- cos due to the getting out and off- we may have incurred an extra fee using the ezycard - but its only about $2 or so.

The taxi ride from the checkpoint cost RM$40 (about Aussie $10) for a thirty minute ride. But it beats the hassle of getting back onto the bus.

The air ride was ok. But when we landed- we seemed to be gliding down forever- and when we landed we took forever to stop. I felt my flesh being peeled off as the pilot tried to stop the plane.

It was a scary moment.

Currently waiting in Semporna for dawn now- the last ferry to Sipadan left at 1pm- we got to the jetty at 3pm.

Still we made some new friends - one of them, Joe is an experienced diver with over 300 dives under his belt. He even swam to the sunked HMS Repulse
