Kota Kinabalu - Christmas Trip Part 2


We spent most of our days enjoying the hotel and the pool. We did take one day to do a bit of Christmas shopping. At the hotel there were lots of things to keep us busy. Rob and Kieran would work out at the gym in the morning while Evan and I played table tennis or badminton. In fact, our family has found a love of badminton. We played several times while we were away and have since bought ourselves some racquets. It is suprisingly fun!


For Christmas dinner we repeated a tradition we started last year. We had dinner at a fancy restaurant not too far from where we were staying. They have the best buffet full of seafood and all the Christmas trimmings. The boys especially love the dessert bar. After several trips to refill our plates we walked our meal off by the sea. Although Christmas here for me is difficult. We weren't able to dash through the snow in a one horse open sleigh... but we had a great time in the sand and surf!
