intro
the journey starts on 27|07|12. 9 days to travel.
me and my friends, around 30 people.
we took AC+comfy bus, ferry ship, local bus without AC+small space, local boat (from the small one into the ferry).
location is east of NTT.
 |
sunset on the boat. don't remember where it is, maybe on our way across to Bali |
 |
same location as above. |
the main village
 |
one of their home. facing to the sea. |
 |
if you're lucky, this is how the villagers greet the outsiders. |
 |
come sit and enjoy the show |
 |
it's the show. dancing, singing, shouting, act fighting, play some instruments |
 |
that woman carrying the precious thing. oh god i forget the term. that thing use by man to propose the woman he'll be marrying. |
 |
this is the best spot. you can find by sitting at the back |
 |
some of their home |
 |
this is how the house's frame. real solid wood is used. |
one day visit to another village
 |
the journey to get the village. after we rent the 'angkot' (public car transport), we walk up. |
 |
stop a moment to enjoy the view |
 |
rest area before the roads getting harder to walk. harder means sometimes i crawl, using my hands to help me stabilize my body so i can't fall down. the road is slopping downward. |
 |
another breathtaking view. mountain vs sea. can you find the walking path? that's where we'll go |
 |
a little green on top |
 |
arrrive |
the journey to stay in another village
 |
we took local boat |
 |
contrast |
 |
above the sea i can see little fishy fishy |
 |
waiting for the boat come pick me up |
 |
where's our boat? why not cooome. |
 |
look at the sands |
 |
it's okay we wait, if the spot is like this |
 |
another island across our |
 |
the boat arrive. let's come home |
beach.... around an hour from our place
 |
my first impression is the gradation of the sea colour. it's magnificent. from the dark blue, light blue, a little turquoise, the brown shade colour from the sand. |
 |
at the edge you can collect some seashells |
another beach... when two different streams meet
 |
can't believe i can feel the two different streams at one spot. one come across from the left, and the other one come from the right. |
 |
crystal clear |
 |
find this pop up sands. i forget the term. |
 |
the sunset colour amazes me. a little pink, peach |
 |
rocks |
 |
random rocks |
 |
the only green i see in this sand |
 |
pinky sunset light |
 |
look at the pattern that sea created |
komodo here we cooome... on our journey back home
 |
labuan bajo port (i guess, cause i'm just the followers) |
 |
unique boat |
 |
another mountain vs sea |
 |
we are amazes by the islands, the sea, the sky. |
 |
walk to meet komodo dragon. prepare a lot of sunblocks. it's really really dry. |
 |
hey there! |
 |
i forget the exactly of this bone is it komodo itself or their foods. |
 |
see everywhere is dry. looks like desert. |
 |
too hot |
 |
it's the welcoming on its island |
 |
green vs desert |
