A few weeks ago you saw the "Top of Singapore". Well ... this one definitely beats that !!!
Here's a 51-year old who made it to the top (in more ways than one :)
Approaching the peak of Mount Kinabalu ...
Everest next?
.Any more photos of the view from up there, AM ?

Well done!
ReplyDeleteSuch a feeling coming over me
ReplyDeleteThere is wonder in most everything I see
Not a cloud in the sky
Got the sun in my eyes
And I won't be surprised if its a dream
Everything I want the world to be
Is now coming true especially for me
And the reason is clear
Its because you are here
You're the nearest thing to heaven that I've seen
I'm on the top of the world looking down on creation
and the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around
Your love's put me at the top of the world
Something in the wind has learned my name
And ir's telling me that things are not the same
In the leaves on the trees and the touch of the breeze
There's a pleasing sense of happiness for me
There is only one wish on my mind
When this day is through I hope that I mwill find
That tomorrow will be just the same for you and me
All I need will be m ine if you are here
I'm on the top of the world........................

I SEE PHOTO I ALREADY TIRED, NOT TO SAY MAKE THE CLIMB.
ReplyDeleteWaaah, that cap has been to the southern tip of Africa and the top of Malaysia ... not bad.
ReplyDeleteBoleh tahan Dato' AM
ReplyDeleteCongrats, Anthony & Team for reaching the summit of South East Asia's highest peak.( it's 13,445 feet high above sea-level and they named it "Low's Peak " - how ironic !) Though Sir Hugh Low deserved such mention, nevertheless.
ReplyDeleteI was in Sabah for 5 years ( 1984 - 89 ) and one of my "little regrets" was not scaling this mountain. I guess altophobia got the better of me !
Only you would be able to describe the satisfaction and achievement in reaching the summit. That in a way compensated for the Nederlands defeat in the World Cup Final ! ( you're a die-hard Oranje fan, aren't you ? )
As Sir Edmund Hilary's famous words go - "It is not the mountains that we conquer, but ourselves."
Three Cheers and Well Done !
We are very proud of you !
Wah, bayak kuat ho Dato' AM, I can't even make it to the top when I was 46 but you did it at 51! Ada makan ubat apa ha?
ReplyDeleteI suppose Dato' AM is in Kuching at the moment for the regatta. Hope your long boat wins! Good luck!
Guys, it was tough, very tough going up and extremely painful coming down! And I swear I will never do that again! hehehehe
ReplyDeleteAM, nice to see that you retained your sense of humour after the painful descent. hehehe Good going, at your age!
ReplyDeleteNice photos AM. Congrats on your achievement. I know it was tough esp at our age. I was at the Low's peak in 1985, but failed to reach the top in 1991 due to stomach cramp. Cheers
ReplyDeleteDid the orange cap make it to the Regatta, AM?
ReplyDeleteOrange Cap got to rgeatta alrite!! but i got a big Sarawak flag that I brought back to KL. Will fly the Malaysian, Selangor and Sarawak flags at my KL house this Merdeka month.
