Malaysia: Borneo, Mobul Island




Trent has fully recovered and we're back to filming.  It's really exciting to be back on scope.  We are currently in Borneo.  We are traveling around the Malaysian portion of Borneo.  The jungle here is absolutely gorgeous with many sections of the rainforest untouched by development.  This section of the world has a unique geographical position, allowing it to be nearly untouched by natural disasters.  The rainforest here dates back 100 million years and has not seen hurricanes, tsunamis, or wide spread fires.  


Sipidan is a small Island off the coast and contains some of the best diving in the world.  It ranks as one of the top three dive locations.  Miaken and I did our first dives in this area off the coast of Mabul Island (neighbor to Sipidan) and saw some of the most amazing sealife!  




The resort where we stayed was so set just off shore from Mabul Island, surrounded by coral and all kinds of sea creatures.  


There was this great dock at the diving shop so we started going for some backflip frisbee fest and the locals thought it was so funny.  They joined in, it was hilarious.  The frisbee was definantly new to the Islanders.   Here's Jabal sending for the frisbee.



Some photos of children in the local island village.
