Miri, Malaysia

Our flight from Miri to Mulu was cancelled, and MASwings rebooked us for the first flight out the next morning, and then gave us a voucher for a hotel, dinner and breakfast, and taxi to and from the airport. The flight itself cost us $36 CAD so we made out pretty good :)

The hotel was a resort hotel near the airport, with nothing to do except stay in the hotel. Out meal vouchers got us a set meal that sounded not so great, so instead we moved to the lounge (it was happy hour from 5:30pm - 8:30pm), ordered off the menu and figured to pay for it ourselves. However the lounge staff let us use the monetary value of the voucher against our meal so we ate for free.

With most of our trip to date having been organized to the detail (Danum Valley, Sipadan and Mulu Park all had to be booked at least three months in advance), the night in Miri felt like a little adventure from our vacation. It's how we usually travel when not going somewhere in high season.
