I took all the kids out today on the same river safari that I did a few weeks back hoping to catch all the same animals again. The boat ride in itself is a great trip for the kids and they weren't disappointed either on the wildlife front. We saw several monitor lizards, a mangrove snake in a tree, two groups of proboscis monkeys and even 3 crocodiles including a big one though unfortunately all dashed into the water as soon as we spotted them. It was great to see the kids getting excited about spotting the wildlife especially the older ones.

We all had lunch at Fratinis afterwards. Pizza and pasta never goes down too well with the kids so they all hated it - NOT - I think if we let them they would have eaten all afternoon. As usual the younger ones had fun making their own pizzas.

HI Maria
I am highly interested in the trip you had went to see the proboscis monkeys as i am currently involved in a conservation programme here in Brunei. May i know the person i should get in touch with for this trip and his/her contact number? Greatly appreciated..
Hi bb. Thanks for dropping by. The number to call is 8874405 - Hj Tarsad. His boats takes tourists to the area on a daily basis. I have never been out with the man himself but the two boatmen I have been out with both had eagle eyes - talking of which I forgot to mention in the original post that we also saw two eagles.
As conservation is yr field, maybe the issue of the pollution where most of the wildlife is found can be addressed properly. The river is in such a sorry state with so much rubbish floating, as you will see for yourself.
Look forward to reading yr post.
