Borneo Rainforest




We just returned from  Borneo.  Wow it was so much fun and beautiful.  It is a rain forest, 6 degrees off of the equator.  That means it is hot!!!! you only have to stand still and you are perspiring.  We visited an Orang-utang rehabilitate center .  They assisted orang-utangs that were injured or orphaned etc.  Borneo is the only place these animals live besides Africa.  We also visited Turtle Island, we they helped Green Turtles and Hawk Bill Turtles to survive.  Being a rain forest it rained a lot, Oh and there were leeches!!  We found two different kinds on us!!  One was a tiger leech and the other I have not looked up yet. The one on Juris's boot is the other one.  If I am a "good" girl I will add more to the blog in the future.
