Grannies With High Heels

GUEST COMMENT (my father):

has the beginning of our trip Anna-Lena (AL) has already described. In Bali, we have sought first in Kuta for a hotel. AL knew the area already has and then negotiated with the taxi driver at the airport. The result was: less money and less traveled route. In range and € meant that: Approx. 1 km towards midnight with 17 kg backpack at 80% humidity and 30 ° C ---- savings: about 30 cents !!!!.
The accommodation was clean and tidy and then up above all up to the beach. 5 minute walk. Here in this Part of Bali was "shopping", ie look at, because the greatest shirt number was still too small, and of course now and then a delicious ice cream.
eat keyword: During the entire stay was almost always (called Warung) from the small street stalls malnourished. Delicious little fried fish (smelt size), this was rice and a little sauce to drink for about 1-2 € incl. Drinks meant either lukewarm (room temperature) from the bottle, thirst with ice of unknown origin from a clean glass or to Indonesian conditions.
We do not have to cold drinks, fried ice cream, nor frog soup or other things omitted, while moderate digestion had no problems.
In Bali, we then visited the odd Touriressort in Nusa Dua. Since there were actually people who have seen except the transfers from the airport to the hotel none of Bali - As I skip the long flight and find me a warm closer to Europe located alternative.

Overall, a great island, which differs greatly influenced by the Muslim Java - already begins with "Bintang" at. Bintang is not good day, or any other phrase, but is the name of the well-tasting beer.
Bali then we have a ferry leave and almost 5 hours getuckert to Lombok. since in the free museum ships running around on board usually permitted, it could act on this ferry only one still intact ship. Hygienic conditions as of A.-L. in another place described extensively. Only one could "land" in an emergency sometimes disappear in the bushes, this is possible on a ship is not given. Ie eyes nose and above all, do business, clean it with the right hand (trowel) water over the lower back and left-handed.
was compensation to look at the volcanoes of the islands and arriving the evening ferry.

The next day led us through Lombok and using a small outrigger boat to a vorgelarten of three small islands. On "Gili Trawanga" we will finally recovered for a long time. Ours, it was the largest of the islands, had a circumference of 7 km. 1km to life with the two corners of one additional km with significantly decreasing the public and the rest just flat deserted beach. Dives offered sharks, rays, turtles, nudibranchs, moray eels and .. and .. and .... The snorkeling with AL, however, was characterized by turtles and eagle rays, especially with a small (about 3 m wingspan) Manta that circled us 5 minutes playing SUPER.

This island was completely in the last days in Review. Wide empty beaches, warm sea, delicious fruits and fish, in the evening under a full moon by the sea one (or two, or three ...) caipirinha at a price of 1.30 € and above all, as on Java and Bali, friendly, Locals warm.

Unfortunately it went out over time and by boat we went back to Bali and a 18 hours Busstour to Semarang. Was interrupted by a tour, these 16 € Included are midnight buffet, the bus stopped at some point somewhere, and in a large room were plates, cutlery, tea, rice and three containers with palatable Meat or goulash. The second interruption was there at 6 clock, when a tire blew and it was changed only once. The speed of this happened let us realize that so happen to have something rare.

Our last days together in Semarang then ran by very quickly and eventually it was called then say goodbye. That evening, then came in early December, two in Germany and finally abandoned packages to AL was overjoyed at this unexpected Christmas gift in March.

Apart from the photo's to me the memories remain of a holiday season that did not last through the language skills of many to AL Impressions of the country and its people off the beaten track to win.

But I would like to thank my daughter very very much, it was a great time - any time - and you want for the remaining months all the best!

How To Make Altair Hidden Blade

holiday visit from Germany

Papa is here! And what to do with relatives from Germany who want a visit? Of course, first of all show a small Indonesian orphanage and the "new" as guinea pigs for the children used the English - Welcome!
But since I did not want it goes to the first 2 days already and I luckily in the 2.5 weeks of his visit is not in anyway Orphanage teaching could've (there were between 4.3. And 17.3. A 2-week work camp with Freiwillgen from Japan was in the orphanage. Of those taken over not just my schedule but also taken my room in fog.), We are in with Sairozi tow made their way through Indonesia. First it went to Yogya to admire the Borobudurtempel and let us show on Malioborostrasse of the typical kinds Batikhaendlern Indonesian souvenir stuff. After we had beaten us 2 days by this Shoppinghoelle, Dad and I have passed us by Yogya and flew the plane to Bali.
I never fly again with Lion Air! We are living got out of this plane again, one might described as the eighth wonder of the world! Every Lemming, who would have seen the parts, would be passed out with happiness.
It began that have been discovered not even our 1.5 liter water bottles at the security checks, because the security with everything but the luggage was busy. Then it went to the wait, since inser flight was not only the last, but also had delayed ... because the repair was very reassuring citation said. When we saw the plane, we knew had to be repaired why. When we back at the tail (and not as otherwise normal, on the side) in the Hoellenmaschine boarded tape welcomed us on the walls (these are the reparations, of which we were just told, "went by me during the head turn, yet the urge to ride the bus to Bali was getting bigger). In the headquarters of the tables were loose and you could see through the cracks at the top of the Amaturen the electrics. On the toilet, I had the same time instead of a piece of toilet paper the whole roll in hand, while I was amazed at how many gaps, cracks and crevices can be accommodated in such a small space. When I went back to my seat, I could see the flashes of lightning admired by which we flew through and when I then the brochure with prayers from 5 different religions read that should provoke a good trip, I grabbed me a catchment thoughts: " they all come down ".
I do not like, but after the longest 45 minutes of my life I landed in Denpasar and gliecklich seldom been out of this airplane that I hope never again see more, drop out.

While Dad and I were traveling was deleted at the work camp at the orphanage, the Bad ... and it looks now:
