Sabah Trip - Day 4

Today wake up at 5.30 a.m. After finish getting ready, checked-out from Pulau Labuan Inn around 6.45 a.m.  Then proceed to the Labuan International Ferry Terminal on foot.  Have some 'kolo mee' for breakfast at the cafe opposite the ferry terminal. Bought the ferry ticket Rajawali, bound for Menumbok at 8.30 a.m. While waiting for departure, here were some photos taken there.

The journey from Labuan to Menumbok took only 50 minutes. The weather was fine during that day.

Was asking around for a bus or taxi to Keningau from Menumbok. Unfortunately there wasn't any, so have to go to Kota Kinabalu first in order to connect to Keningau.  Boarded the 10.00 a.m Borneo Express bus.

Arrived at Keningau around 3.45 p.m. Searching for hotel around Keningau town, but the search was futile as it was coincident with the Sabah Game at Keningau with all the hotel fully booked. So have to stay with relative there. Have the chance to watch the game up close.
