Mulu trip - 25 Mar 2011

Part 6 of 7

Time to leave. At Mulu Park airport. Simple. Check out the weighing machine. The conveyer belt for luggage at the background

Although small, the airport still have baggage scanner

Our ride back. The impressive ATR72 aircraft

Upon reaching Miri, we rented a car and drove to Niah Cave, about 100km away. What a difference after Mulu! The place was very basic and nowhere near as posh & nice as Mulu

The main cave. Very large area and lots of steps to climb!

We walked all the way to Painting Cave to see pre-historic paintings. But they were so faint & very difficult to appreciate. Looks better in photos though

Wanted to spend the night at Niah Park, but the chalet was full(!). So we returned to Miri and spent the night there. Had some proper food at Miri, but the chicken tastes different that in Peninsular. Serious
