Yesterday I wasn’r feeling too good. I almost forgot I was scheduled to leave for an excursion until I received an sms from victor. Mrs BB rushed me to the wharf. We had a puncture. It was a bad omen and both of us thought it was best I not go but I had no choice.
Walked to the old express wharf better known as Pulau Babi to the older generation. Met a lot of my old friends and new. The feeling of excitement slowly began to overcome my feeling of dread.
It was great to see Sibu from the express boat. As you can see, it has a certain charm to it.
We stopped to pick up staff from the medical dept, the dentistry dept and the fire brigade dept.

| From my personal stuff |
I was all comfy in the air-conditioned express boat but cheeky Victor challenged me to climb upstairs and soak under the hot sun to take pics. I am not the sort to take challenges like that lying down.
Without any grace I tried clumsily to climb. It wasn’t easy. My sandals weren’t quite up to the task. I left my sandals in the boat and tried to climb up again. After much shoving and pushing, and a few tired friends, I was finally up there luxuriating in the wind though my little hair. The sky was cloudy though and I rather enjoyed being on top.
Every body was happy and it was contagious 
My river adventure had begun.
To be contiinued ……………….
Wow, that sounds like really fun! I haven’t been on a Express boat like that not to mention at the top!
Oh, don’t be so superstitious, bengbeng! : )
