Part 7:Pasir Putih

I woke up feeling really stone…was woken up from my sleep. The driver was talking to us-something about the sea....but I really can't make up what he was trying to tell us…but there was the sea beside us….the next minute, he drove in to a parking area. I wasn't the only one..someone else was even more stone than me..keke….

Their traditional boats caught my attention. Bright sails. The boatmen were talking to our driver….after walking a stretch of the beach, having observed the activities going on there, we decided to check out the boat….
The launch was pretty impressive. Apart from the person to control the boat, we have around 5 person in the water helping to get the boat into the water, against the strong waves…it was harder than what we expected. It doesn't help when I was asked to take the first seat….-_- When I turned ard, the driver was patting his chest and telling us "scary"(in bahasa Indonesia)-haha!

This is Pasir Putih...we, out in the sea, with the coral reefs beneath us and the cloud covered mountains right behind us...
