I experienced many "first" in two days

Although this was the third time I went to visit longhouses, stayed and mingled with the folks there, I still had many "firsts" experience....
Fried fresh sweet corn...
Not sure of the actual name... fermented salted fish. Very strong taste!
Talking holy communion with bread dipped in the "wine"...
Although this wild orchid literally lined the main road between Miri to Sibu, this was the first time we actually plucked them in the kampong!
I never knew that rubber seed can be eaten! On the left is salted rubber seeds. They taste ok but salty.

Gab, you are right! I played with them too. The taste is quite "flat" but crunchy.
