Day 145 - Weds 16 Nov - Kota Kinabalu - Sabah Museum

Today we visit the Sabah Museum - Built in 1985, the Museum complex is sited where then British North Borneo Governor's Istana was once located. The Museum consists of the Main Building, Science and Education Centre, Heritage Village, Sabah Art Gallery and Museum of Islamic Civilization. Disappointingly - apart from a few quite sterile tribal clothing exhibits - most of the complex is undergoing refurbishment and not open to the public. We have brought Kiran along with us and he enjoys showing the girls the traditional longhouses in the Museum grounds.




It is ridiculously hot to be out and so we make for Jesselton Point for a sneaky ice cream before delivering Kiran home in time to get ready for his school "end of year" speech night concert in the evening which we all enjoy watching.
