World Cruise 2013
March 4, 2013
Today the ship arrived in Ujung Pandang, Indonesia. Ujung is
near the larger town of Makassar, Indonesia. Today I took a tour called
“Bantimurung Waterfall & Makassar Sights”. We started off with a tour of a
local market in Makassar that is the place where the locals buy eggs, fruit, and
fish. It included a walk crowded with people, vehicles, etc. Our next stop was
at a waterfall and butterflies. On the way we had to drive on very busy
streets, rice fields and houses of many types. Many of vehicles on the road
were small motorcycles because this is all most people can afford. The rice
fields are still worked by hand with each plant planted in water and when it is
ready to harvest each plant is cut. No machine is used to harvest the rice. A
field produces two crops of rice each year. I took pictures of the waterfall,
walked up to the top of the waterfall, had a coffee break and went to a
butterfly exhibition. The live butterfly house at the site had very few
butterflies in the building. Our next stop was at Fort Rotterdam built by the
King of Gowa in 1545. It had a museum and in it was a method used to cook
where wood is laid on sand under a steel grill. The guide said that his mother
has electricity in her house but she still cooks the old fashion way.
Below are some pictures from the ship and from my tour.
