No more rain = no more Borneo

Our last night in KK it dumped rain, so much rain that the streets flooded and it looked as though water would soon flow in under the doors of our Hostle. Within 20 minutes after the rains slowed the the streets were completely drained of water. They are used to it here and must have good drainage, though i am sure it goes unfiltered right into the sea.
Then next morning we took an 80 person speed boat ferry to the island of Lambuan. The ride in the rain and waves took about three hours, it would have been nice to see a little more than fogged up windows, but we sat about two feet away from a tv screen playing a really bad karate movie, so at least we were entertained. We decided to stay a night in Labuan instead of catching the next ferry to Brunie. It rained all day. Josh caught up on his internetting and i walked through the rain to the cities museum and learned all there was to know about Labuam from the dawn of time (cavemen) till now, a duty free port where people load up on booze and cigarettes on their way to Alcohol free Brunie. We found a realy dumpy place to stay for 20RM or $6. This place was like Bangkok dirty, but it was the cheapest place we could find. It was discovered in the morning that Josh was missing $50 in $1 bills, obviously taken while our bags were in the non too secure room and we were away. He confronted the door man and then the owner. We went through a long drawn out ordeal that included a trip to the police station to fill out a report, obviously Josh is still out $50 plus the 2RM he had to pay for the report. While still being stuck in raining Labuan we walked into a travel agent and since air travel is so cheap here we booked two tickets to Kula Lumpur. $50, we just wanted to go any where that it wasn't raining. The cheap flight was the late flight so we left our bags at the travel agent, bought two shitty little paper thin umbrellas and laughed at how wet we got from the sideways rain as we walked to the Aquarium. After looking at the few fish on display we called a cab, picked up our bags and went off to the airport 5 hours before our flight. We hung out at the airport playing chess and cribbage. We got to KL and into our Hostel at 2am. We are out on the town now, it is not raining, it is way less balmy, maybe in the high 80's. Josh is booking us a $30 ticket to the Island of Langkawil, which is in Upper East Malaysia.
