THE TRIP TO THE NIAH CAVES

Thirty  years  ago ,Hedley, accompanied by his wife and his  elder daughter Kate, travelled from Brunei to the Niah caves in Sarawak, Malaysia. On that journey he faced a lot of problems; he travelled by car, ferry, boat and on foot. He reached the Niah caves when the sun set, at dusk. After that he stayed with his family in a government rest house. He enjoyed a lot with his wife and elder daughter and they saw the Niah caves, birds, bamboo poles, men climbing to scrape birds’ nests off the roof of the cave, in order to sell them to Chinese. After that long day they decided to return the next day. He said it was exiciting, different, an adventure and they were lucky to see the guys climbing the poles. Unluckily he grounded the car and lost reverse gear.
