Pesta Kobis Kundasang 2008

Last Saturday, me and the girls were at Kundasang for the Pesta Kobis. Before we went to see the Kobis (Cabbages), we took time to watch the 4 X 4 Challenge.
So exciting pulak watching these cars going all out
in powerful modified engines.. Revving through rough and
slippery terrains. Mona was clapping hands whenever the
4 X 4 managed to get over the obstacles.

Later on, we stopped by the Kundasang War Memorial. Beautiful gardens inside.

'I'm dreaming of Australia, the land we left behind, Dreaming of loved ones-we could always bear in mind. Although its only fancy Our hearts within us yearn. But we'll make up for lost moments-When to Aussie we return.
There'd be sailing on the harbour, the showboat our first choice. Or maybe we'd be dancing-Listening to our sweetheart's voice. Although its only fancy Our hearts within us yearn. But we'll make up for lost moments-When to Aussie we return.'


'This memorial garden is dedicated to the memory of 1,800 Australian and 600 British servicemen who perished in the P.O.W camps in Sandakan and in the three forced marches from Sandakan to Ranau, and of the many Sabahans who suffered death in trying to assist them.

"Let them not depart from thine eyes, keep them
in the midst of thine heart."
