Day 109 Mulu

Our only room mate left yesterday so managed a private room from what could have been a 20 bed dorm.   We slept until 8:30 then got breakfast. We did a nice walking trail around the river seeing some large squirrels and birds eating fruit from the trees as well as some more unusual insects.
We returned to HQ for lunch before heading out on the waterfall trail. We had been warned of leeches due to the rain so we went armed with high socks and a bag of salt but thankfully we saw none. When walking fast to avoid leeches you never see as much so massive trees and a birds nest is all we managed. The waterfall was lovely but Tim decided against a swim since the water was merky and anything could be in there. We headed back to HQ walking just fast enough to keep in front of the thunderstorm coming.
