Sulawesi, is that spidery armed island in between Borneo and the Phillipines, it's famed for some great diving and islands.
However, this island, apparently created when the Australian and Asian plates collided also some some quite mountainous regions worth visiting, and visit KW did.
General plan was to fly to Makassar, AKA maSUCKSa since it sucks, according to the german backpacker we meet. Flights from Jakarta take about 2.5 hours and cost about 2-3 million rups ($200-$300) - on Garuda, I'm sure the low cast carriers are cheaper.
After Makassar we planed to hire a car and travel up to Tana Toraja, a place that I had not heard of previously..... but I'm getting ahead of myself.
