Odyssey To The Thousand Islands - Part I

So school, or university, is over -we finally passed and it's time for celebration. After a whole lot of consideration and great ideas that hasn't come to realization we finally decided a destination, Kepulauan Seribu which translates to Thousand Islands. (Even though it shares the same name as the salad dressing, it actually sounds nice)

Heru came to sleep over at my place because my place is a lot closer to the docks compared to his. We got up early, around 5-6 am, and ordered a couple motorcycle taxi (it's a thing in Indonesia, especially Jakarta) to take us there.

To reach the docks of our ship, we needed to pass a series of fish market, a couple hills of public waste and dead fishes, and a couple ponds of thick black water from the depths of hell. Oh, did I mention there was traffic? Had to spent around 15 minutes there.

Needless to say, the ride to the docks was enjoyable and fantastic.


Enjoyable

And Fantastic.














































































If the pictures and captions didn't give you a hint, I was being sarcastic. The moment I went down the motorcycle I bend forward and gagged -thankfully I hadn't ate anything so there was nothing to throw up.

Everyone else was there there already, only me and Heru were late -as usual. The first thing they noticed about me (other than me gaining tons of weight) was how red my face and eyes looked from the enjoyable and fantastic bike ride to the docks.
