Wrap My World Around You: One Night in Temburong

Hello folks! :) I'm back with more updates. So to continue with my orientation story, we had an opportunity to stay 1 night in Temburong. Our main transport to Temburong is via speed boat from the bandar hospital jetty to Temburong jetty which took about 45 minutes. The ride was quite uneventful until we came across a dead floating crocodile on the water.

On arrival in Temburong, we drove to the hospital and were given a tour of the place. In Bangar Town, I stayed at the youth hostel using bunk beds in a large room shared with 14 other girls. After getting settled in, prayers and lunch, we headed to Bukit Patoi for our afternoon hike. It was lightly drizzling and the climb was a bit slippery. After the hike (I did not reach the top, Ha! :P) we went back to rest at the youth centre and decided to head to Tamu Temburong just across the street to buy snacks. The banana fritters are very cheap because for B$1 you can get 10 pieces of it! That's very generous and cheap! :O After happily getting our inexpensive fritters, cakoi and coconut drinks, we walked back to the centre.

We spent the rest of the afternoon mingling and relaxing before joining in for a night of activities at the centre. The next morning, we packed up early and after breakfast headed to Outward Bound Brunei for a tour of the place. After the tour, we headed back to Bangar to explore the town on foot and have another breakfast at one of the restaurants. We were then invited to attend a function at the Community Hall before heading back to the jetty to catch the boat back to Temburong.
