We walked by a dry marketplace and there were many stuffs that unequivocally new to me. From a daily necessity, cloths, snacks and foods.

I beheld some of a dishes (for breakfast) were unequivocally demeanour delicious! Too bad, we already had a breakfast in resort…or else we will really try some of it…

After about an hour, we came to a finish of a dry market…unfortunately a time was not concede for us to continue to a soppy session.

Another form of open ride speckled during a exit, it looks like ‘Angkot’ from Jakarta though with a smaller capacity…too bad we forgot to get a name of it…
