After a good nights sleep, we woke at 7am for our breakfast. The hotel told us that was the only time it was served. However, they didn't tell the guy who was on duty that night. He was still fast asleep in the breakfast room until half past!
We made a decision over breakfast to catch the 9.30 am bus to Tana Toraja. We travelled in a taxi to the bus stop with another English couple heading the same way.
It was an impressive bus, huge seats like first class on a plane and nice cold air conditioning. We left on time for the 9 hour journey north.
Soon out of Makassar the scenery improved to beautiful fields of rice and unusual shaped mountain ranges. We stopped a few times for refreshments and the journey went quite quickly.
We arrived in Rantepao, found a hotel and negotiated with a driver for tomorrow's adventure and afterwards went for some well deserved dinner!
