We started our journey as early as 6 a.m. We straight went to Labuk Bay Proboscis Monkey Sanctuary located at Labuk Bay town. It took us about 45 minutes to reach there from our hotel. As we arrived at the sanctuary,we waited like half an hour before  the feeding time.For those who are interested to go there,you must be there at feeding hour time as the monkeys(lots of monkeys) will only come out at the jungle during those hours. During the feeding time,we saw a lot of Proboscis monkeys.Proboscis monkeys are totally a cute creature esp.their nose parts.They were divided into 2 groups 

We managed to watched them as near as we can and even touch them! I was totally eccentric and happy at that time :) After 2 hours at the sanctuary,we went to Sandakan Memorial Park where the old refugee camp for British troops during Sandakan-Ranau Death March.We managed to talk to the owner of the park and he told us many histories and even freaky tales ( he saw some ghosts at the camp). Then,we went to Ocean King restaurant for lunch. This restaurant is a must to go as it provides mouth watering Halal Chinese seafood cuisine which is really yummy. After that,we went to Batu Sapi where there is a stone statue that the locals resemble it to a cow. At night,we went to night market again and had some rest.

We started our journey to Sepilok Orang Utan Rehabilitation Centre.At Sepilok,there are many foreign tourists there. We saw 3 Orang Utan's there as they were having their so-called breakfast.Then,we went to Rainforest Discovery Center which located near Sepilok.There were many old and ancient trees and we went to one of the highest canopy walk I ever walked in my entire life. But the scenery was totally breath taking. After that,we went to Sandakan Crocodile Farm. Tell you the truth,the farm is much better than some of crocodile farms in the peninsular. The farm offers more than 3000 crocodiles and the crocodiles are super duper big in sized and all types of crocodiles.Not only they offer crocodiles for visitors to watch,they also offers other animals like tortoises, beavers, fishes etc.

We checked out from our hotel and we plan to stay at Kinabatangan river tonight. Kinabatangan river is the longest river in Sabah and 2nd longest in Malaysia. Before we reached Kinabatangan,we went to Gomantong Cave,a cave where it is a place for bird nesting. The cave was huge and smelly ( of bat's and sparrow's bahan buangan) After that we went to Kinabatangan. We actually had booked Osman,a local living in Kinabatangan who provides homestay programme.At first we were terrified as we thought how's the house will look like :p At Kinabatangan,Osman fetched us and took us to his house via his boat. Alhamdulillah,the house was pleasant enough,very clean yet simple.The room is super clean and the price is cheap. 1 person or RM 50 per night. Its is a surprise that we were told by Osman that we were the first Malay Malaysians to stay at his house(he always receive foreign visitors).Wow.About 3 p.m Osman brought us for boat ride at the river. The river was huge and there are many crocodiles in it too! There was so much wildlife roaming around freely in their natural habitat.There were no chains,no cages. It was nature like I've never seen before.Theres one thing that I like Sandakan a lot: Sandakan is very different compared to any other places in Malaysia  because wildlife and nature are  so extremely well-preserved. We went cruising down mangrove forests in a wooden boat. But it was not just any boat trip-It was a safari,Malaysian style. After nearly 4 hours of cruising we had dinner and took some rest.

We went for boat ride again and we had breakfast on the boat. We also gave the wild fishes there some biscuits. Then,we went inside the jungle and had jungle trekking. We saw various types of creatures inside it including leeches etc. I saw a gibbon swinging at the trees. After that, we went back to Osman's house and packed our stuff and heading back to Sandakan.*tsk tsk* After saying goodbye to Osman and his family, we started our journey to Sandakan Town. We arrived at the town in evening and we checked in at Nak Hotel (located at the heart of Sandakan Town) 

We woke up early and packed our stuff and ready to leave Sandakan.It was a bit sad to me as I realized I love Sabah! At 12 p.m we checked out at the hotel and took our flight back to Kuala Lumpur.Indeed this trip is memorable to me as Sandakan offers me joy and happiness :)
