A Batak island par excellence!
Tuesday 13th December 2011 – Berastagi to Parapet, Danau Toba
I transferred my wet washing out onto the open lines first thing, as the sun was making an appearance and I needed to get my backpack dry (along with the clothes & boots!). After breakfast, I settled down to some journal updates before packing up my gear and heading down for the booked 'tourist bus' at 1.30pm (there was no earlier one). Because my next destination required ...
Elephants in a tropical paradise
... Really, with some low limestone wedged between the jungle interior and the water, it just looked like a mini paradise!! I could have stayed here a week and never got bored, especially as there were treks available into the jungle!
The girl also showed me the restaurant of the lodge: it was built partially over the upstream section of river, so the views were really something else!! Coupled with gorgeous little thatched ...
Lake Toba, Samosir eiland
... Batak huisje met een bed erin en een klein hok met douche en een gat in de grond als wc. Voor een nachtje vonden wij het wel prima.

We zijn maar met het licht aan gaan slapen en de volgende morgen bleek er gelukkig geen muis/rat in onze tassen te zitten. We ...
Bumpy ride to a bloody big lake!
... s biggest super volcano, I will however mention that it is bloody massive as mentioned earlier and quite breath-taking to look upon as one might well imagine.
Having descended from the hills surrounding it, along the windiest of roads for over 2 hours and then taken the 8km ferry ride to get across the bloody thing, we finally arrived on Pilau Samosir, the "island". We were tired and it was dark by the time we got to our guesthouse, a ...
Mopeds and Sunburn
On the road again, we have a 7 hour grueling drive on the renowned Sumatra Highway 1. So called because it is the only highway, which runs from top to bottom. This road is single lane 95% of the time and potholes rule, it is dirty, dusty, busy and dangerous but also a necessity if we want to get anywhere. Our destination is Lake Toba, which is a lake formed in the crater of a long dead volcano. After stopping for a delicious lunch somewhere on route we make the last ferry by 5 minutes ...
