30 May 2012 - Pathfinders to Kuching

Late flight out from Singapore to Kuching.
Boat was on the same plane.
Ripken picked us up at the airport.
First part of the mission, get cars.
No cars at ALL the rental agencies. All cars rented out... wait WHAT?
Mission status SNAFU
Headed to Ripken's to drop luggage.
Dinner at Lok Lok in town.
Plan B, get bus tickets.
Mission status SUSFU
Night buses available, but only one way. Leave Kuching 9.30pm, arrive Saratok 3am, and they drop you by the side of the road.
crap.
Mission status FUBAR
While at the bus terminal, Joyce called. She managed to get us 2 vans from Saratok.
800RM total, one way. I had to smile, I knew the Iban gods were looking out for me, and weren't going to let me down.
zzz at Ripkens.

Ever see a traffic jam at the airport?
