Orangutans!
We got our first glimpse of the beautiful men of the forest at the Shangri La Rasa Ria Resort just outside of Kota Kinabalu in Borneo. The resort is home to a small sanctuary, and all three of us were really impressed by the staff, the facilities, and of course the apes.
After spending a couple of hours watching the orangutans and talking to the staff, we mosied back to the reception area which was absolutely beautiful! As a result we spent a fair bit of time just lounging around, before embarking on a fairly hefty drive all the way across Borneo to our next destination. The resort also obviously made a pleasant change from our usual accommodation of the cheapest hostel we can find in a town. The orangutans were amazing, and we had such a lovely morning watching them. I would definitey recommend anyone to visit the sanctuary if they find themselves in Borneo!
