May 2005 : Makassar

We visited uda's parents whose dad at the time being was working in a Cement Company there. Makassar is beautiful, famous for it's seafood -ikan dabu-dabu is one of my favorite-, big spacious city with old culture still attached. Makassar is in Sulawesi island, about 1,5 hours flight from jakarta. We stayed at kakek's house in a district that's about an hour driving from Makassar.

We also visited Toraja, a famous tourist spot that still hold their ancient culture and has beautiful view of muntains and forest, and the village houses. It took us about 7 hours driving from kakek and nenek house. Wina start showing that she;s a true traveller, didn't have tantrum and just sleep along the way. One of the attractions is that they buried the dead people in the mountain rock and make a doll to indicate the ones that is putted there. Oh, it's a little scary getting in the cave.
