Summer holiday Labuan Bajo day 4 (June 2024)

Our last day at Labuan Bajo.

Papa and mama woke up at 5am and did a little hiking at Bukit Sylvia to watch sunrise.

It's amazing to see the bird's eyes view of Labuan Bajo.

After that, we went to airport and bought some souvenirs along the way and mama bought tenun vest as momento.

Thank you Bajo for the warm hospitality and incredible views, you will be in my heart.

Summer holiday Labuan bajo day 3 (June 2024)

Today we did land tour - culture experience and nature exploring.

We started our day with coral exploration at Mirror stone cave. This is where coral under the sea formed million years ago when it's still covered by sea water.

It's so incredible, we imagined we were diving under the sea exploring the coral cave.

We went in with protective helmet and flashlight as the cave was dark inside.

After that, we had our lunch at Berkat Seafood restaurant. The place is clean and the food is very yummy.

Then, we continued to Rumah tenun for culture experience, understand and learn how tenun songket was made.

They showed us where natural dye come from, how they make natural colouring and the process of tenun.

One tenun sarong takes around 2 months in total as it's made by hand.

In the afternoon, we enjoy Flores coffee while overlooking rice field.

After that, we went to Taman Laut Handayani for sunset view and seafood dinner.

Today we did island hopping by speedboat.

We were picked up around 6am from our hotel and went to the port to change to speedboat.

It took around 1hour to reach our first destination : Padar island.

After reaching there, we started hiking for about 30 - 45 mins to reach to the summit, which is around 140m above sea level.

It's manageable however the crowds and the sun made challenges and we were rushed by time so some of us couldn't make it to the top.

The view was incredible in every post, it's really picturesque post card.

After that, we continued our journey to Pink beach and it's one of the prettiest beach I ever seen.

The gradient of the colour and clear turquoise water are so perfect and complement each other.

Then, we continued our journey to Komodo National Park island where we observed Komodo dragon and took pictures 4 - 5 metres away from it.

After lunch break in the boat, we continued to little island called Taka Makassar. It's like a beach in the middle of nowhere in the sea. It's so beautiful and we could do snorkling and swimming as the water is crystal clear.

And our last destination is Kanawa island where the kids did snorkling while we took some nice shots and swam along the shore.
