Hanging around in Bukit Luwang
... it was Gin O'Clock, so made our way accross a the most structurally unsound bridge in the world, to reach a cluster of small shops. We hoped to beat the impending rain, but this was not to be, and the most spectacular storm ensued. Flash lightening, thunder, torrential rain and completely flooded streets. We got through a couple of bottles of Gin with some new friends whilst waiting for an opportune moment to cross back over the river but were warned by the locals that it was ...
The Jungle Book of Love
... and a moonsnake, white and iridescent as an opal, sleeping wrapped around a tree branch.
My curiosity about this one gets the better of me and I turn to take another look. Slick and black, perhaps three feet long, the snake slips across the path, not once taking his eyes off us. As he makes his escape, I wonder who is more frightened: the snake, who may well intuit the danger we pose to him is far worse than any damage he could inflict, or we who are more ...
Malang – auf zum aktiven Vulkan Bromo
... 4 Stunden leicht nervösem Schlaf, nicht wegen der Tour, sondern wegen leichten Kribbelerscheinungen aufgrund der DICKEN Ameisen, klingelte 0.30Uhr unser Wecker, da bereits um 1.30Uhr die Tour losging.

Lustig mit anzuschauen war es natürlich, dass die Leute hier ein ganz anderes Temperaturempfinden hatten als wir… Hatten die geschlottert! Wenn ...
Our Jungle Home!
... by mosquitos and then come home! Well, this was no mosquito trek! We were lucky enough to see the big male orang-utan – again! That’s a full house for Wawan – every time we have been out, we’ve seen the big male and that is pretty rare - “we so lucky, yeah?”, as the lads keep telling us. Oh yes, we’re VERY lucky, this is a beautiful place!
On our final day, we walk to the edge of the jungle and the lads have built a bbq for us ...
The Orangutans of Bukit Lawang
... was amazing to see them in their own environment, relaxed and happy. The kids would be playful and full of energy and the mothers would just hang there eating bananas and leaves. The Macaques (little monkeys) would sometimes try to steal the Orangutans food and the Orangutans would shake them off the tree. The poor little Macaques would go flying! It was very funny to watch. Sadly the future does not look good ...
