But we like Wakatobi. More on that later. I last left you standing under a starry sky in Kolaka. Magical things happen under starry skies. Like Rastafarian secret agents popping-up to help you find a Kijang to Kendari. Now our dreadlocked friend actually appeared long before the stars did, but having him emerge under the faint lights of faraway suns makes for a more dramatic entry of this interes...

Hats off to his Dudeness
Hats off Ralf... nice report and cool trip.. I missed Wakatobi when I was in Sulawesi. Sounds like a really nice area to explore..... Loved the Orangutan Crab Pic... one of my favorite little underwater critters haha

Thanks!
And I only have done the easy part of Southeast Sulawesi so far. If you get here, go visit Muna Island as well, it is on the first stop (Raha) when you take the jet-boat from Kendari to Bau-Bau and vice-versa. I was going to, but ended up skipping it. But it should have some really interesting scenery and culture. I have discovered that on the rest of this part of Sulawesi there is no information at all. Not even on Indonesian sites... So much to be discovered, so little time left.

I had a feeling thats where you were heading ;)
Yes, there is so much to discover and so little information..i guess thats what keeps drawing me back to Sulawesi and more remote Indonesian archipeligos. Great blog, I enjoyed it heaps thanks.

Your hunch was right!
Yes, this part of Sulawesi is really nice, but one has to discover it all by oneself. And I need much more time for that. Will have to come back one day. Locals keep telling me about all these places, I haven't a clue where they are. Today I... No that is for the next blog ;)

Yet another gem discovered by the Flying Dutchman...or do you prefer Cruisin' Dutchman. Helped aboard by a dreadlocked friend you must have thought it was the start of something special. This pic is a cracker.

I wouldn't dare to take credit for discovering this place, except for myself. My dreadlocked CIA agent was indeed special. Might be something for the next James Bond.
