Just arrived back from my week and a half of pure joy in Malaysia. Visited family. Ate fresh fruit. Drank fresh coconut water everyday. Hiking. Seafood. Beach time. Even some dead-skin-eating piranhas. As I said before, pure joy and perfection.

Hong Kong Airport for my layover... 3 HOURS UNTIL MALAYSIA! |
 |
A patriotic view of Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. |

Sabah Tea Farm, as organic as it gets. |

They named it Tom YUMMMM for a reason. |
 |
The world's most perfect pina colada. And some good company. |
 |
Fish market! |

Gorgeous colors on that sting ray. |
 |
"I SAID.. GET.. GET ME OUT OF THIS FISH MARKET" |
 |
Chinese New Years dragon! |
 |
Just a normal day at the fish market with my pink heart sunglass-rocking daschund. |
 |
Oh, yes. Bring on the papayas. |
 |
This is a stream NATURALLY populated with fish who feast on dead human skin. Yep. |
 |
Hungry fish awaiting some friends. |
 |
Nom nom. |

Pa and I testing out this fish "massage." |

Feast, my friends! |
 |
Nice little hike in the rain forest. |
 |
Sun bathing. |
 |
Complete tranquility. |

Our waterfall discovery! |
 |
A delicious post-hike snack: Fluffy pancake with curry (Roti Canai), rice and preserve fish wrapped in banana leaf (Nasi Lemak), fresh squeezed carrot juice (Carrot Juice). |
 |
Coconut is a "bigger is better" kind of thing. |
 |
To send to Glamour Magazine: "HEY! IT'S OK..." to be vegetarian, except at dim sum. |
 |
Dragon fruit, in the flesh |

I will miss you.... |
