After an average experince getting from Singapore to Johor Bahru in Malaysia
we flew into Miri, about an hour outside Brunei on the island of Borneo, where we are to spend the next 2 weeks. We met up with Josh and Claire here, and had a nice dinner and beer in the modest 'seahorse' town. The next morning we bussed through tedious immigration (5 buses) into Brunei, and oggled the oil rigs plunging the earth all over the place.
Brunei's capitol was a surprisingly awesome experience. Everybody is islamic, and are the friendliest most helpful and genuine people we have met yet. We had the best mangos in the market.
We took a 2 hour ride with a local who invited us onto his boat. We saw wild proboscis monkeys, and went through the largest water village in the world (29000 pop.), inside a house even, very humbling and special experience.
