Well I’m a little underwhelmed with Kota Kinabalu and it’s my own fault for not doing more homework when I booked the flights so many months ago.  But I’m here so I’ll make the most of it. There’s not much to do here really and so I should have gone to the other side of Sabah where I would have found national parks and a more natural environment. 

I walked around the streets yesterday and came across a few landmarks, such as the Atkinson Clock Tower dating from the 1800’s. The mosque is designed to hold 12,000 people and I walked there along the sea front but was a little disappointed with the structure as it’s in a sad state of repair.

The mosque was a fair way it and I didn’t want to walk back but then I discovered the Uber option in Google Maps. I can order an Uber and I can pay by cash,  how good is that.
