Tanabiru - Boat making village

Saturday, September 11, 2010

Tanabiru is a cute little village where the main occupation is boat building. The harbour is just full of beautiful indonesian boat and there were a lot on the beach.
The people in the village were most friendly, inviting us in for coffee and trying to help us out all the time, in exchange for only our friendship.

We found a great little restaurant in town and had chicken in satay sauce every evening, cheap as chips (literally)...
On one of our days there we took a bus to Bira, about an hour awayon the rough roads. Bira was a big suprise for us, we thought we're going to a big town and we discovered a beach resort type village, loaded with domestic tourism. It was a good day for all of us, had a couple of beers near the beach and relaxed...

Chicken came out for some air on the deck...
