Where I stayed
In the air

A giant black rock looms above the white fluffy clouds. 

Mount Kinabalu. 4,095 metres high.

Surrounded by rainforests, the little villages littered around it are insignificant blemishes in its shadow.

I am reminded of how old the world is. This majestic rock was here before any of us. 

And all this from the window of an Air Asia flight. 

The man next to me has a quick glimpse of this awe-inspiring and beautiful mountain, the returns to his newspaper. The pretty air hostesses shuffle past with tea.
