Bromo Style

A travel blog entry by alanhopkins

... and Michael and Elina are Fins from Helsinki. Andrew is a very affable chap and it doesn't take long to feel like you've known him for some time, he came over chatting from the off.

Day 1 - Transfer to Bukit Lawang, Wandering the Town
Headed to the hostel at what I thought was 15min early only to find it was 1hr 15min early. Seems I had forgotten to change my watch the day before at the airport. At least I was 1hr early and not 1hr late.

Killed some time on the laptop then jumped into the car with Emma, Silke and a german couple who were also heading to Bukit Lawang. Had around a 5hr drive to get to the town and then got escorted to the ...
