Today we start the journey towards the mountain. Apparently we will be going through some strange territory. You know those pictures of islanders with loincloths, bones in their noses, and huge spears? Those will be our acquaintances for the next week. Apart from sharing time with natives, Damian and I realized we have something else to look forward to. At Immigration we thought we would leave Indonesia to go to the mountain. Apparently we don't, so our 7 day visa will expire in a couple of days. This could land us a spot in the government prison. Hopefully we can play dumb. We spent all day in airports and island hopping on small planes. We were hours on this one island, so I spent the afternoon chilling in the sun. For dinner we went to a local cafeteria deal. All the locals just stared at us. Then, my "favorite" dinner. They brought out about 10 fish, freshly fried up and slapped them onto our plates, their little faces still looking at us.
