RBC Road Journey 1st August 2011
The first group of RBC members left Kota Kinabalu at 11.30 am, following a short visit to Coadjutor Archbishop John Wong. We were driven by Kota Kinabalu representative Richard Wong. We encountered engine overheating after 20 minutes on the way to Tambunan. We had to stop for 30 minutes to cool it down through the kind permission of a very nice lady and her daughter who allowed us to park our car in her front yard and to use the water from her washing area to wet the radiator.

There were several puppies down by the bottom of the stairs who amazingly were able to have a nap despite the intense heat. It's a dog's life!
Proceeding on, we stopped at Gunung Mas for a coffee and then headed for Tambunan and Keningau. We arrived at the Cathedral and Pastoral Center at 3 pm. We met Fredoline Umis, our RBC Keningau representative who then guided us to the Retreat Center for tea with Bishop Cornelius Piong.
As the above photo shows, our progress to the Center was blocked a couple of times as we were not the only road users!
