continue the land route to Aceh through the Bukit Barisan forest of Sumatra. Long journey, yes. But exclamation. From Aceh, we departed to Ulee Lheue port to board the express ship to Pulau Weh. Yes, Sabang is located on Pulau Weh, the island which became the western tip of Indonesia.
I was very excited. We are on Pulau Weh, enjoy this island without me having to feel foreign. When the driver picked us up at the port of Balohan, the guide's brother immediately thought I was an Acehnese. With an oval face, tan skin, thick eyebrows, small eyes and black, veiling also makes him more confident that I am an Acehnese. In fact he asked Malay dialect of Aceh which is not difficult for me to understand the language. But unfortunately, our brother's guess was wrong. Yes, fellow blooded Sumatra, our faces are easily recognizable.
The city of Sabang is not a big city but its people are unpretentious. The streets are relatively quiet and the road conditions are very smooth. We also freely choose stops where the scenery is okay. The road seemed to belong to us completely. Such a dream city, yes, this city. It was wonderful. Seen once the people of Sabang very appreciate the region and keep their city worthy of tourists.
Gladly we walked every corner of Sabang City. The hot weather on an island plus the oil content of the sea breeze made our bodies tire quickly. However, the city of Sabang, like this newly built city, sheds the fatigue. We are introduced to the 8th seater whose panoramas directly facing the sea. The streets of the city of Sabang is tortuous and up and down hills. This is a new streets deliberately made for visitors, and so the road to the hill looks more gentle.
