(morning at Pulau Peucang)I phone Marley, checking what he is up to. "Ujung Kulon." Excuse me, monsieur?
I am more than glad to join the trip to Pulau Peucang. Everything turns out to be beyond my expectations. And i think this sums up what K Es texted me: have a nice journey and count yr blessings.
and here they are:
I have got a company of 40 plus and they're nice people. Most of them--like Marley I guess--are seasoned travelers. I also meet my old friend's friends. how cool is that?
I've a beautiful sunset and later in the morning after a nice yellow sunrise.
I have my first dip in the ocean and doing a brief (my first) snorkeling. Think I'll add the equipment to my list soon. I feed greens to demanding monkeys, not to forget I have a nice encounter with a not-so-wild boar and a male deer. I have my lomo with me.
I have hours of nice experience.
(first in situ dip, abt 15 min sail off Pulau Peucang)Most importantly I learn lessons unlearnt on the mainland Java. Ha!
It's a pay off especially when I missed the trip in 2000 (gulp! nine yrs ago!)
Twas great to hit the water again.
