Selamat Datang, Banyak Islands Idonesia

Yesterday at noon stormy weather arrived and we had huge waves and a lot of tropical rain until early in the morning today. We were watching the weather forecast to find out, if it would be possible to cross over to Singkil, Sumatra by boat. This morning at 7:30 the rain was over and we left from Tambarat with the fisherboat to Haloban, Tuangku island. We loaded some goods and switched to a bigger boat. Fortunately not only the rain 🌧 was over, also the waves 🌊 were not too big to cross over.
As usual we made another stop, loaded and unloaded some goods and watched the fishermen and children at the harbor. We loaded some big boxes 📦 with fish 🐠, and as you can see the fish is pretty colorful.
It really feels adventurous to cross the open ocean with this kind of boat and big waves but fortunately it stayed calm enough to safely reach the harbor in Singkil, where Joe waited for us to bring us to Lake Toba.
Already when we left we decided to pass by Lake Toba once more on our way back, because it’s so peaceful there, the people are nice, the food good, the lake wonderful clean and the temperature relaxing. So now: another week at Lake Toba ❤️.Read more
