Sakura at Sumba Island, Indonesia
Day 4 - Thursday, 14 October 2018

Our first destination for today is Tanggedu Waterfall at East Sumba, it was such a long way to arrive to Tanggedu Waterfall, the view was spectacular. It's like having a road trip where on your left and right side were just savanna or I can say a little wild savanna since you will spotted a lot of wild animals live freely. Along the way we stopped at few points to take pictures since the view is really nice and totally different with Indonesia that we used to see.

In the middle of savanna, we spotted Konjil Tree (Konjil Flowers) which looks like Sakura or Cherry Blossoms and that was soooo beautiful that made us stop and take pictures with that tree. The pinkish color made the tree looks so pretty.

savanna..ohh..nana
Lovely Konjil Tree <333
Still a bit far to reach Tanggedu Waterfall, after we parked the car, we need to do trekking to reach the waterfall. It was very hot and the trekking took about 30 - 40 minutes. But let me tell you, the view when you do trekking was so amazing and please your eyes for sure. I love it. It was tiring, challenging so prepare yourself but some road was flat so it's not that tiring, don't forget to bring your water.

hop hop hop

When we finally arrived at the waterfall, I can say a lot of spot to take nice pictures in here. The waterfall is pretty big and the water flowing hard from the rock cliffs, awesome. There are some small stalls at the waterfall. I also spotted some people so brave enough to jump from that rock cliffs, phew, nerve-racking.

From there we went to Puru Kambera to enjoy the sunset, Puru Kambera is actually another Savanna, so we just stop on the street and see the sunset.

Tonight we will have seafood time for dinner at Dermaga Lama - Waingapu, it's really good and we also can't forget Terong Crispy (Cripy Eggplants) soooo good! We ordered Terong Crispy wherever they have it on menu because it is soo tasty.
