The Place

Quite far from Bengkulu, Indonesia, but I got the day wrong and went somewhere closer.

Well, it was just a couple of hours ago that I was sitting at this very internet cafe, in Bengkulu, Sumatra, Indonesia, checking out the geohashes when I noticed that one was actually extremely close by - only 7kms or so.

I had actually decided that I'd just veg out for the afternoon, reading 'The Day of the Triffids' by John Windham and decided to abandon the hash because of the difficulty of taking public transport there. But on my way back to the hotel a guy on a motorbike looked at my expectantly and I thought, "What the hell" and went for it.

I bargained the guy down to 30,000Rps for the 2 hour trip and clearly the guy had no idea of where I wanted to go.
