Day two in KK, Borneo

while at the internet place yesterday we heard what sounded like a major car accident, and withing minutes the sky opened up and dumped waterfall onto the streets. I have not seen rain like that since, i don't know when. We were very unprepared so we decided to take a cab that i had spotted just around the corner. I do not mind a little rain, but we had Josh's big backpack since we had not checked into a new room yet. As we left the internet place on the street in front of me a motorbike came to a sliding halt and ended up underneath the car in front of him. Being a veteran of that sort of thing i ran through the rain to see that he was ok. I pulled his bike out and stood it up, He just looked at me with a "what are you doing" sort of look as he crawled out from under the back of the car. I asked if he was OK and he looked down at his bloody leg looked at me then hopped on his bike and sped off. "Just walk it off" i yelled.
We found the cab and all the cab drivers huddled under a very small overhang, we hung out under there with them and worked out a price to the new motel. We made it and checked into to our new spot. $6 a night for a dorm with AC. We walked around and found a couple new malls and bought some essentials, My head has been totally clogged with cold like symptons since i have been here, went to the pharmacy and using my pro charades skills i told the gal what was wrong and she gave me some pills, i took one and felt clear and much better this morning.
Today we have booked a one day trip to the nearby national park and hot springs. I also talked to the young kid who booked our day tirp about hiring him to drive us around the tip of Borneo over to Sandakan, that is where he is from, I thought this would be a cool way to see Borneo, with a local guide who also speaks English. He said we could not talk about it in the office, but he will call and meet us for a drink tonight to hash out the details. We will see if the price is not too high?
It is hot and humid here and i can see big bubbly clouds off in the distance, It seems to dump rain in the evening heavyly but not for too long. I think we might look for a beach or something for today.
