Part 6:Banyuwangi

Had intended to head back to Surabaya after Mt Ijen but given that we went all drenched after the climb downhill which took us another 2hrs plus, the 7 hrs drive back to Surabaya didn't seem like a wise choice. We could fall sick....not to mention that we needed a hot bath badly...

We were introduced to Ketapang Indah Hotel by one of the tourists that we met at Mount Ijen. Good recommendation I would say. Right across the water is Bali-West of Bali! We were tempted to take a ferry across to Bali. I must say-it's so much cheaper to do so....but well...we really don't have the time to. Not gonna risk missing our flight-haha!
