Day 1
we went to a cultural village located in sarawak. we then proceed to touring the cultural village. i predict we took about two hours to complete our tour. then we proceed to watch a cultural performance.that performance was a bummer and a humdrum. later that night we get to experience dancing a bidayuh dance. im quite gratified and content as all the students there were cooperative and appreciative of the dance. we were also told some stories by aunty lin (tour guide) and leo (chief).

Day 2

we had breakfast at the cultural village itself. if i can distinctly remember i think we ate mee goreng and some hot dogs. we then went to kampung telaga air. we learned how the fishing boat is made nad also to make a malay traditional kuih. we also had went fishing. it was a dreary experience. however it also tests one's equanimity and serenity. we then proceed to luch and then shopping before checking in the hotel. we then had our dinner at a hawker centre. the food there is "exquisite". then we went to another shopping mall before walking back to the hotel.

Day 3
after breakfast we travelled to a school called smk siburan. we were given a hearty and hospitable reception. we learned more about the school and had toured the school too. after visiting the school we left and proceeded to gunung gading national park. we get to see the rafflesia (not bloomed yet). we then proceed to dinner and then went back to the hotel.

Day 4

we checked out the hotel at 1.30 and then went to orang utan reserve. we were lucky and propitious. 14 of the orang utans came. then we went to sarawak museum. we get to shop again at main bazaar before dinner at kfc. then we went to the airport to travel back to singapore.

i would like to thank aunty lin and aunty yong yong for being discerning, kind and amiable. i would also thank mr zul for being most of the time with the boys making it a merriment trip. thks
