3 days left to 2010...

Actually 2 only.....i'm a little disoriented with the time difference here in Malaysia - still going by my laptop time here when i blog.

Had the pool to myself this morning most of the time until the tail end of my swim.  The water felt nice and fresh at 9a.  Hung out with niece the rest of the day and we took off to the club again.  They swam and i went to the steam room - it was super crowded at the pool around 5pm.

Counted about a dozen mosquito bites from the youth retreat yesterday.  Mt.Singhai was a steep climb up - good trails mostly covered by the dense forest.  I was drenched with sweat from the humidity.  It felt great - would have gone on but the rest of the way to the top was unmarked & treacherous and didn't have proper shoes.  We barely felt the rain on the descent when the storm moved in.  It was wild and beautiful.

The guys at the lodge had it right - beer with crab cookout.  Not sure about the Karaoke though....  I tried a taste but retire early.  Not much sleep with 8 teenagers in the next room.  Legs felt pretty sore from the dash up the mountain - but the swim helped stretched body out next day.

Before we left - screams from the room indicated an unwelcome guest.  I voted to not kill it - but poor spider, i was the only one who rose to defend it but a little too squeamish to put it outside.  Sorry spider.
