Batang Ai National Park (Continued)
|
Later that afternoon there was an interesting one hour guided nature walk near the
Resort. The guide/naturalist pointed out and explained many of the plants and their uses.
We saw no animals. Part of the walk was on an elevated walkway 10 meters (30 ft.) or
more off the ground and sixty meters (over 190 feet) long.
The following morning we went by boat and bus from the Hilton Longhouse Resort back
to Kuching. Along the way the bus was halted for us to view some wild "pitcher plants"
designed to trap and consume insects. For lunch we stopped at the Ranchan Recreational
Park, a popular riverside park with waterfalls and a swimming area. Nearing Kuching we
also visited a pottery factory.
