Kinabalu
Hi! We did the climb in February. There were a decent amount of people who did the climb the same day as us (maybe 75?), but it didn't feel crowded. We were on a longer trip and so weren't timing our travel through countries specifically with certain weather seasons, so I'm not even sure if we were there in high or low season. I imgaine that Christmas time could get crowded, but otherwise I don't think there is a bad time to go. It's pretty chilly at the top though, so bring a fleece or jacket and some gloves!

Climbing KK
Hi - sorry, I haven't checked my blog for months and am just getting your questions. In case you're still interested... we did it the cheapest way possible and just went to the headquarters and signed up there (rather than getting a package beforehand). Per person, we spent $10 for park entry, $30 for the climbing permit (incldued guide) and $35 for one night at the Gunting Lagadan Hut lodge (shared dorm room). We did it in one night, which is pretty normal. Most people stay at the headquarters the night before the trip as well, which is about $50, but we stayed at the Mt. Resthouse about a mile from the entrance and it was $20/night for a double room. I think it is usually OK to just show up the day before you want to do the hike and book it at the headquarters, but during holiday times it is probably best to book in advance, although probably more expensive.

Enjoy the last days of your trip!!!!
Megan and Matt, We have relished sharing all your adventures and can't wait to hear more when we see you. I just read several blogs as I needed to catch up and it's exhausting just reading how much you've fit in! I'm going to have Ali read your London blog as she will be there (and Paris, Rome, Florence, Athens and Greek cruise) in June/July with a group from her high school (her Grad. present). Have a good trip home to sunny California! Love and hugs, Aunt Diane

WOW!! I'm amazed every time I read your blogs! I think you're on to something....a travel book! Your adventures have so much to offer and I feel like a travel companion while reading, thanks. Enjoy Europe, I'm sure this part of your trip will be quite different. Keep us posted. Love you!

You missed some
You guys should've gone to other northern tourist spots like the Hundred Islands in Alaminos, Pangasinan, surfing and spanish architecture in Ilocos Norte. The Batanes Islands I heard looks like the Irish countryside with it rolling hills and stone houses.

Be back
Leaving is indeed the hardest, but be back soon. There are 7000 more islands to explore, albeit this may entail a 9hr bus ride.

Wow - looks like you guys are having a great time. You don't get these chances too often so it's smart to do it while you can. Florida is still sunny and warm and we're still getting in some great volleyball here. Have fun and be safe. dave & family
