Mark Moxon's Travel Writing

Indonesia: Labuanbajo

Waecicu Beach
Pretty little Waecicu Beach

The island of Flores, named 'Flower' by the Portuguese before they sold the island to the Dutch, is quite beautiful, which came as a bit of a relief after the long bus journey through the comparatively desolate and barren Sumbawa; the island of Komodo, which is sandwiched between Sumbawa and Flores, is well worth a visit to see the huge Komodo dragons that live there, but unfortunately I had to sacrifice it to my schedule.
