Indonesia - Sumba - Kelala to Tarimbang - April 2010

Kelala to Waingapu 500 000 rupiah


Waingapu to Kelala 650 000 rupiah

This was a long drive.

As the crow flies, the distance isn’t too far but the roads in Sumba are different. The drive from Kelala to Waingapu went via the south and east coast which is relatively flat. It lasted 2 ½ hours.

The second leg of the journey from Waingapu to Tarimbang involves hills and badly maintained roads during the last hour. The drive was 3 ½ hours.

There was a lot of rain which isn’t much fun in steep and windy roads which are deeply potholed.
