Today is Sarawak Independence Day

 Kuching - What a good time to end the day to celebrate Sarawak Day.  Once we cross the river, it was crowded with people walking and about.   Water and fireworks with colourful buildings.


The beautiful reflection of the colourful building on the river.

crowds at Merdeka square

Cars were jammed on the roads and we could not take a grab back to the hotel.   We walked over to Merdeka square and passed the huge crowd celebration towards St Joseph's Cathedral.

We waited for our grab taxi for about 45mins to arrive as he was in a traffic jam.
