Going through the photos from my 2005 trip to Malaysia, this is one of my faves. A misty morning on the East bank of Lemanak River, Sarawak, Borneo, Malaysia as seen from the Batang Ai Iban longhouse where we spent the night drinking positively excellent Iban moonshine with zero hangover factor and boy, was I ever loaded. I still feel a bit bad for having gone there and watch them put on a show for "rich" Westerners but it was an amazing insight nonetheless so I'm glad I didn't have those qualms before leaving or I might not have booked that arrangement. The trip was three weeks with the first week guided and the other two spent backpacking and I hope to go to Malaysia again some day, it is a beautiful country, the people are friendly and very very hospitable and the food is awesome, you can eat all kinds of super spicy hot food but you will always still taste something and not just feel your mouth burn. And their breakfast, Nasi Lemak, is a great start into a day in the weather there. Some days I drank as much as 9 liters before needing to heed nature's call. It is all one huge sweatbox to me. http://tinyurl.com/eckinator4PDML Good? Bad? Ugly? Let me know! Enjoy Ecke
