Makasaar
Tuesday, September 21, 2010
We arrived at Makasaar, the third biggest city in Indonesia. Time to rest...
We stayed more than a week in Makasaar, doing a little bit of maintenance and errands every day and resting a lot. We decided to extend our visas here and that took some time.
Also, our anchor winch decided it was time to perish and we had to stay longer to fix it. But we're not complaining about staying here, Makasaar is just lovely and there's much to do around town. John bought a new chair for the deck and it's definitely the duck's nuts.
Alon took a few days off and took a bus to Toraja, 9 hour ride, where there is a lot of interesting stuff to see and a lot of European tourists to meet...
Just a day before leaving Makasaar we met a young French couple, Joe and Chloe, which joined us on the way to Kalimantan. It was good to have fresh blood on the ship, ours began to be really stale and stank a bit...
