DORA on the ROAD

Date of Exploration: 06-08 January 2015 After setting our tummies in Pulau Perak just after the snorkeling, we continued sailing towards the nearby island, Pulau Putri or commonly known as Princess Island. Pulau Putri Check out the abundance of fish swarming and blanketing the shallow bay of the island. At a first glance, I thought it was a pile of garbage but I was wrong. You can count the fish swimming in it. Lol! Just so you know, Pulau Putri has its underwater aquarium which gives its visitors with an incredible close - encounter experiences of different varieties of fish and corals. Pulau Putri's Underwater Aquarium Wait a minute, did we just spot a huge monitor lizard lazing on the side of the shore? Creepy! >.

Date of Exploration: 6-8 January 2015 Back from holiday....back to reality. Our 3D2N trip in Pulau Seribu was indeed very fun and relaxing. Pulau Seribu, or commonly known as Thousand Islands was located at the northern part of Jakarta's coast. I do in fact miss the sun and the beach so much!!! A few days ago, I visited few of the major islets in Pulau Seribu with my colleagues. These are the Harapan, Bira, Perak, and Gosong islands. The Muara Angke Pier. Despite the 90 minutes bumpy long drive from Muara Angke pier to Pulau Harapan (our first stop and where our villa is located), we are absolutely rewarded with the majestic views of the Java Sea which tooks us taking lots of pictures with our photographers onboard, Ms. Marilou and Ms. Mona.
