Jakarta Capital Region, Indonesia
Made it! After the scariest ride from the ferry on the busiest roads seen. Regularly having near misses involving trucks, buses, cars, humans. Went the wrong way down a road stopped by police who for a $20 facilitation payment gave us a 15 minute escort to a well earned 5 star Crowne Plaza hotel. Currently living it up after a long long drive! Now off to the bar for some long island ice teas...
Tebing Tinggi, Indonesia
Going well until the Tuk Tuk starts swerving all over the road. After a closer look we find out the lefthand side axle control arm is snapped! Hailed over some friendly locals who only too happy to help. With the assistance of about 8 guys loaded the Tuk Tuk onto a small truck where it barely fit. Now getting it welded up. Hopefully on the road again soon...@
