I was asked to go and look at a problem caused by lightning, in the communications system, so I travelled out to Brunei.

Whilst I was there, I got a day to look around, and it really is a fantastic place!

This is a "floating city" of 30,000 people, made by lashing together many, many boats.

Most of the poorer workers, (and a few of the better off ones), live there, and commute to shore by river taxi.

Brunei, a "Lightning" Visit!!

 

What a houseboat!

 

Nice, a place to go to college

There is a large technical college, set right down on the water, and it looks just the sort of place I'd have wanted to study!

!!

The Sultan's mosque, is a fantastic building, and it is traditional for each Sultan, to provide a new mosque for the people of the country.

The gold which can be seen is exactly that!!

 

 

Fantastic!

Guess who's a gecko fan...

(Loads of 'em.....running all over the airport buildings......)
