Kuching

So far our Kuching experience has been a very wet one with almost non stop rain day and night. So much so that Ayden and Jack haven't even jumped into the pool.


Yesterday morning we went for a walk in the city and enjoyed the view of the Astana and a walk through the historical buildings nearby notably the Old Courthouse which I think also housed the Rajahs' offices.








And in the afternoon we went out to the Sarawak Cultural Village. We loved the various houses and longhouses.




The blowpipe was popular with everyone with probably Donncha having the most 'go's.







Didn't enjoy seeing the ground through the bamboo gaps of the Melanau people's house. Check out the height on the picture below.


And the kids loved the entertaining cultural show



So far food has been a highlight. And there's nothing better than starting the day with a good Asian breakfast. On top of the list is the famed Sarawak laksa (which I will feature in another post). I had a good one this morning and the boys enjoyed their nasi lemak.
