... tradition. In former times they also had Menhirs (megaliths) as a sort of a grave stone. Again the more buffaloes you sacrifice the bigger the menhir you could get. As with the Tau Tau this custom is also not in use anymore. Another way of burying the deceased is in natural caves. The body is placed in a wooden coffin that resembles the shape of a traditional house. The coffin is then placed in a cave and Tau Tau’s are placed in the cave as well. They ...

... 1 den. V pruvodci Lonely Planet pisou, ze v Makassaru vari vyborne rybi speciality a take nocni zivot stoji za to, sama parba. Kdyz jsme odjizdeli ze super tiche Pantai Biry, nase ocekavani byla velka, to by ovsem nesmel byt Ramadan! Pres den byly skoro vsechny restaurace zavrene a vecer praskaly ve svech, jak se do nich nahrnuli vsichni ti hladovci.

... or boxes on one truck and you are paid by how many you load on to the boat. Some of the boats looked like they were going to sink. Before dinner, we caught the sunset on the beach. The beach was just down the road from the pier. The pier water looked heavily polluted. So, our students did not swim in the water. It was nice to see the sunset on our little tropical island. We finished night swimming in the hotel pool.

Such was my day which saw me try to get a camera fixed, my sandals repaired, passport photos taken, buy a knife, buy batteries, research my next destination and finally decide if flying to Papua, hopping the Papua New Guinea border to get a new visa, returning to ...

... y pude contemplar el espectaculo de las azafatas correteando arriba y abajo... madre mia!, y por fin aterrizamos en Makassar. Y aqui ya se notaba que estaba en Indonesia, no habia cinta transportadora para las maletas, solo un par de chicos empujando todos los trastos hacia afuera y cada uno se cogia su maleta o mochila. Al salir del aerouperto pregunte como podia llegar a la ciudad sin tener que coger un taxi, me dijeron que tomara un "pete-pete" o bus ...

... da naju tamkajsnji muslimani gledajo s prezirom. Sicer sva se s colnom odpravila na jezero pogledat si hise na kolih, ki so naju asociirale na mostiscarje, ki so ziveli na ljubljanskem barju.
