Airport at Wakatobi |
We flew back to Singapore via Wings
Air. The airport at Wakatobi was small. The only plane we saw was the
one we used. Surprisingly it was full, but most guests got off at
the first stop (45 minutes) and we carried on to Makassar another
hour's flight. The visability was good and I took several picture of
the cumulus clouds. Unfortunately we saw several fires as the
farmers were clearing more land thus creating more smog. There has to be a better way.
On arrival in Makassar we had to wait
45 minutes for our bags, but Joan was enamored with the dresses and
hijabs the women wear. Indonesia is the largest Islamic country in
the world, but the women are not shy. I would love to take their
pictures but I'm afraid to ask. We made the final hop from Makassar
to Singapore and even in the dark it was easy to see the smoke from
the fires in Indonesia had abated. Better visibility and much
brighter colours were noticeable on the way home.
