We were not sorry to leave Sandakan and all the
rain and thunderstorms we had there. We had two very quiet overnight stops and
are now anchored off another paradise island called Pulau Mabul.
This one is not as nice as Lankayan Island. They
built too many resorts and there is also a Kampong (village) and a resort in the
making. So not paradise, but it is near Sipadan Island, which is a famous dive
spot.
On to Tawau tomorrow to meet up with "Kind of
Blue"; Anita and Dick. We'll also check out of Malaysia there.
