We said a sad goodbye to Sammy this morning with the intention of heading off early from Kuta, but 3 hours sleep isn’t really enough to face the traffic here, so it wound up being a 10:30 departure.

(At around 12pm)
“What the fuck are we doing here again!? … Whose idea was this?”

No reply.

Riding in Java is not really fun. Today it took 3 hours to do 120km in thick traffic, close to 100% humidity and 36 degree heat.

Tomorrow we’re planning a 4am start to beat some of the traffic …

3 more days to go.
