Day 28 - Matang Borneo - Jungle gymnastics and Roti
Back to bears today! I was on peanut butter and honey duty. I started, as I always do with smearing it with a stick. By the end I had sticky honey and peanut butter fingers! Then I set to work on some enrichment. I collected various leaves from the jungle, smeared them in treats, added dog biscuits (their favourite) and stuffed it all into cardboard boxes. They would then rummage through them in the afternoon.
The afternoon was spent at the civet cage that is being redecorated. We had to scrub the bars and then paint. We erected some scaffolding and they sent me up. I was struggling to climb so I gymnastically jumped up like you would on parallel bars. Bron was so worried her face said it all. Sorry Bron :) by the end I was covered in black enamel paint.
I went to see Rosey but before I needed to wash of the paint. Easier said than done. I basically had a turps shower in the yard. I stunk, but Rosey didn't seem to mind. She was in a much better mood today thank goodness. Mel arrived back from the farm shortly afterwards to we walked home together to catch up on the days events.
This evening we needed to go shopping so the volunteers took us into Kuching. It was nice to have a bit of civilisation and we nailed the shopping as we had already written a list. Afterwards we popped to the Roti shop and all ordered a takeaway. However, there was no sign of Christy, Kerry or Bron so we ate them out of our takeaway bags. They are so delicious. I then decided we should take the left over curry sauce home so we could add it to a stir fry.
It was pretty late when we got home and we were all stuffed from dinner so we had a beer and went to bed.
