<\/figure><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\nLet’s get right into it!!!! Our 202 mile passage from Bawean island to Borneo was pretty uneventful with the exception of the usual tugs\/barges and fishing nets\/lines….there was not a lot of wind so motoring it was. We have started to reach lighting country and heat lighting has been a constant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Double tug and barge…<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n With Kenobi and Cintana in tow (not literally LOL) we all decided to anchor outside the large bay because we wouldn’t make it all the way up the river to the town of Kumai in daylight. Additionally, it would be in our best interest to go up the river at a favorable incoming tide so anchor it was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Glad we made water before the bay because this was just incredible.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n So I had no idea bird nest soup was so popular. As we were motoring up the river, we heard the “songs” of birds….it was astonishing how loud it was. When we went ashore, we heard the “song” again but when I looked up, there were no birds. I asked someone where all the birds were making all the sounds and my response was it was a tape recording…either to attract the birds who make the birds nest for the soup or to detract predators of the birds who make the nests for soup…got lost in translation. Seriously, Kumai is the Bird Nest factory town..who knew? I put a link to a BBC article written in 2011, not so long ago…it’s fascinating…and a bit scary?! https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-asia-pacific-12274825<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once anchored we headed ashore to find an Orangutan tour, check out the market and see about getting diesel. Our days in between our tour consisted of runs to the market, laundry, boat stuff, and get togethers with other yachties. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
