As you can see, the tourists (including us) were out in full force to capture the orangutan antics on film.

The old man in the sea

Some people see bunnies in fluffy white clouds or dancing bears in psychometric ink blots, but we see an octogenarian at rest in the islands off the coast of Semporna.
