Bintang Flores Hotel

Later that day we went to a hot water waterfall, about an hour out of Bajawa. It was awesome – and just about the only time we had a hot water shower in Flores! There are two rivers, one hot and one cold, which join up at the water falls. So depending on where you go, you can find yourself a hot spot, a cool spot – or a lukewarm spot. It was fascinating to sit under a waterfall that was gushed such hot water!

... de streek in Flores waar het Ngada volk woont. Dit is ook de reden om hier te komen. Met een lokale gids regelen we een trektocht van 3 dagen waar we 2 nachten in een lokaal dorp slapen. Dit vinden wij nog steeds de leukste en beste manier om de streek en de mensen te leren kennen.

De Ngada zijn het meest bekend om de manier waarop ze in hun dorp leven . Een dorp bestaat uit een aantal clans. Voor iedere clan wordt in het dorp een mannelijk en ...

... mutta jotenkin myos erittain kotoisalta.

Olemme edelleen lomalla, mutta iso osa ajatuksista on jo Etela-Afrikassa. Kirjoitan tata Bajawasta kahden paivan maasturilla tehtavan ajomatkan paassa Labuan Bajosta. "Hotellimme" vintille on rakennettu jonkinlainen nettihuone ja ikkunasta nakyy komea tulivuori. Saimme tanaan myos tarkempaa tietoa tulevasta lapsestamme. Meita odottaa Johannesburgissa hieman alle ...

... of islands in Indonesia, the largest of which is Komodo island. They grow to 3 metres long and are extremely dangerous. They feed on the buffalo, deer and wild pigs that roam the islands and occasionally on unfortunate humans. We got to see them up close but they didn't move much until a ranger threw a football at one and he was up in a flash strutting around flicking his tongue.
On our last night, with the anchors down and nothing better to do, our boat ...

... young people were. It was completely outside and it was brilliant to be able to lay on your back and just enjoy the stars. But later during the night, you could also enjoy the sprinkle from the waves and the cool wind from the night, so I changed bed and went to "sleep" on the more crowded lower deck with the more quiet people. It was rough, the waves, the crowd, the noise from the engine, the smell from everything, the hard ground, so I decided to check on my bag cause ...

... nights gripping the side of around Komodo and Rinca, and you would have had to pay me to get on another one all the way from Flores to Sulawesi. So I booked a plane ticket to Bali for the next day in the evening. That night I ate my dinner-chicken and rice- and proceeded to get insanely sick all night and into the next day. A very nice Dutch couple had a room near mine, and brought me water and checked in on me, thankfully, there were HUGE rats at the ...

... the reasons why. Flores is located roughly between Timor and Lombok and still remains relatively unaffected by tourism. It is not easy to get to as flights are unreliable and boat journeys are long and have been known to sink. It was therefore filled with a combination of thankfulness and anxiety as the little 18 deater plane trundled along the runway and took off. The flight took me over the islands of Lombok, Sumbawa, Rinca, and Komodo. Islands ...

... were all following each other. Once arriving at Maumere (the easiest place to leave) We finally got a flight. We originally took this trip in a attempt not to fly from Indonesia to England. Doing the whole trip overland. But now we were in a state of urgency as our visas where running seru\iously low and we had to get them renewed. So off we went and boarded a plane with the rest of the perama gang and all headed back to Bali all praying the flight would not crash.

... in Flores due to depleated tourists, **** public buses and a stinking cold so.......I got back on the boat and was well received by the cre and the crew. The working crew consisting of the talented singer and chef, Captain 'madhorse' tommy, Adi the 'dear sweet guide' and many other fantastic lads. The punter crew consisted of Steve, Shane, Yunko & Moto (bloody stars from Japan - very funny), Nick, Anya and another german girl (oops ther goes the ...
