Taken from the Hyatt hotel Sabah, didn’t have the best view but no problem. Below is a 24hr street market which is really lively at night, you can buy some really nice things there. Watches, jewelry, clothes amazing prices. The fact that it was raining so much did not put me of venturing out to this place at night which is totally safe. Trying some of the local delicacies and dodging the rain bursts became almost second nature. Unfortunately because of this I didn’t go out with my camera hmm I’ll need to make amends for next time :-) On average Sabah receives 2,908.7mm (give or take .7mm) of rainfall annually in most part of the state. The North-East Monsoon blows approximately from November to April bringing heavy rain to the east coast. From statistics, Sabah encounters rain half the number of days in a year. Most of the rain are of tropical rainstorms due to extremely high evaporation rate. Rainfall can measure as much as 212mm in one day. I guess we were lucky not to have attempted to climb Mount Kinubalu. Talk about being unprepared 
Just a little tip it ’s really a great idea to do lots of research before doing any kinds of tropical treks. Particularly a simple thing like bringing the right clothing, flip flops don’t always work!
