Images of Kuching

This is the final installment of images of Kuching. It's been great sharing our experiences in Kuching, my wife's hometown. Today is a collection of pictures that don't really fall into any specific category, but which I want to share with you to finish up Kuching's recent dominance of my blog!

    I remember how you used to tell us you would order a taxi and say "Chong Lin Plaza!" Happy days.
