Caption: INDONESIA BY BOAT Orangutans and Komodo Dragons
Caption: With Indonesia being made up of more than 13,000 islands the best way to see as much as possible is by boat.
That is why I joined Austin Adventures’ trip to sail across the archipelago for 10 days.
Picture
Caption: The trip started with a flight to Palangkaraya on the island of Borneo. This leg of the journey would be taken on a river boat as we moved up the Rungan River in search of Orgutans.

Caption: After four days in Borneo we headed back to Bali, where we’d join up with our home for the next week. The Katharine was a traditional pinisi two-masted sailing ship, built in the same traditional ways for hundreds of years.
We set sail with our hearts set on ending the week on Komodo island.

Caption: One day we followed some local boys to a rope swing, and of course I had to give it a try.

Caption: After a week of sailing we had finally made it to Komodo Island, home to the famous Komodo Dragon. I spent my entire childhood dreaming of this animal, and I felt like a ten year old kid again to see them in the wild.
