The boat trip to KomodoHad breakfast at the Puri Bunga, which was not a pancake - rejoice. Toast with two flavours of jam and an omelette and orange juice constitutes gourmet cooking here. Got picked up at our hotel by the Perama bus for a 3 day/2 night boat trip to Komodo and beyond, well worth not sweating down the road with the backpack. Two bus loads of people are taking the tour.First stop was Mataram in Lombok, and the Mataram Mall, which is open 24 hours. ...

Day 13Had an early start to get some brekkie then go and get the boat to Lombok which has a different indigenous people (the Sasak) and religion (Islam) to Bali and is much more underdeveloped, so it should be interesting to see.Hannah has not been very well in the guts so was not looking forward to the boat journey. The boat was some sort of wooden contraption that did not look safe for seafaring and had people jammed into it, but we got to Bangsal pretty quick....
