Not a good day. I have to be in Labuan Bajo on Friday to catch two flights to Manado so I decide to fly from Ende rather than risk buses. It was a process just buying the ticket then mid flight we’re redirected to Lombok because of bad weather. Waited in the Lombok airport for hours before reboarding the plane for Labuan Bajo.
I prebooked a hotel in Labuan Bajo. I had difficulty finding it but finally booked in and crashed. I’m tired. Then the sound of angle grinders! It’s a construction site as the hotel is in the process of expanding. Bugger. I pack up and leave, with full refund of course. There’s no WiFi so I can’t search for another place so I walk, in the rain, for kilometers. People offered rides but I turn them down. I cold call into a hotel I found on MapsMe, Kasawuri. I’m really exhausted now, and wet. And on top of that, fluey.
