Stamp stamp

May 28

The bus ride between Bandar Seri Begawan and Kota Kinabalu passes in and out of Brunei and two Malyasian states. We had to go through immigration entering and exiting each one. It went something like this...

Depart 8 AM. An hour’s drive to the first border crossing then - stamp stamp - exit Brunei. Down the road 500m then - stamp stamp - enter Sarawak (Malaysia).

Drive for another hour then - stamp stamp - exit Sarawak.

A few kilometres down the road and - stamp stamp - enter Brunei.

Another 45 minutes and - stamp stamp - exit Brunei.

Take a ferry across a river no more than 150m wide and -stamp stamp- enter Sarawak (again)

Drive another hour + have a lunch stop, followed by -stamp stamp - exit Sarawak.

And finally - stamp stamp - enter Sabah (Malaysia) and continue on for another four hours until we reached Kota Kinabalu.
