We concluded our side trip to the island of Borneo with our visit of Kuching, the state capital of Sarawak which encompassed Miri and Mulu. We returned to Malaysia’s mainland for a 4 night stay in the national capital: Kuala Lumpur (KL). After a few weeks on the road, we’ve been pleased to-date in having good success in reserving our hotels directly instead of using third-party sites like Booking.com or the sleazy Agoda websites. Thanks to a Valentine’s month special, we even managed to secure a very nice hotel for our stay in KL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2023.02.06 – Miri – Kuching (Malaysia)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We had a relaxing breakfast at our hotel and took advantage of a late checkout before taking a Grab to the Miri airport. That was our fourth visit to the airport – two arrivals and two departures. We enjoyed some expensive Starbucks drinks before going through the security control. Our 1hr flight to Kuching was uneventful except for the rain downpour waiting for us at the airport. The early arrival of our checked luggage on the carousel enabled us to quickly secure a Grab from the airport to our hotel. As the rain continued into the evening, we had dinner at our hotel.<\/p>\n\n\n
