Day at the Beach



Today we start the flight home but we started off with a morning of sightseeing. We met up with our friend Mary Ann's cousin Cordero (Cord) and he took us out for a great morning of sightseeing. We went to a fishing village and also had a good walk on the beach. Cord works for the Asian Development Bank and has been living in Banda Aceh for the past 8 months or so. He had some great stories to tell us and showed us some places that we wouldn't have known about.

It was a fun way to spend our last day here. He even took us to a surfer pizza place that was just perfect.

We are now waiting in the lobby of the hotel. A big Indonesia rock band has just checked in so there is a lot of excitement happening. It is sponsored by a local cigarette company so the air is thick with smoke.

Our ride comes in 90 minutes and then the L-O-N-G ride home will begin.

All for now,
Dawna.
