3-4 ships a month; Ternate, Rp13,750, 2 days, once monthly. Sriwijaya

3-4 days; Surabaya, Rp18,000, takes 6 days. flights: Merpati, JI. Achmad
Yani, has 4 flights weekly to Manado, Rp13,450. But on its flights to
Poso, Palu, Luwuk, etc., you must fly via Manado which makes it very dear:
to Luwuk it comes to Rp27,750! Cheaper is to fly direct to these places
with Bouraq airlines. From Gotontalo Bouraq has 4 flights a week to Palu,
Rp14,500, and to Balikpapan (East Kalimantan), Rp28,150. Costs Rp1000
to get out to Gorontalo's airport, 32 km north. The Bouraq people will
come by to pick you up. from Gorontalo by boat: Take a horsecart down
to the harbor, Rp100. As you trundle by on the bendi shout out, We mana?'
down the long row of boats to find out where they're sailing. From Gorontalo
there are at least 2 small kapal motors a week to the other side of Teluk
Tomini. There are at least 3 directions to choose from:1) The easy way
is to take a boat to Parigi, then travel by op/et or minibus to Palu or
to Donggala. You can fly from Palu. Or take a boat or ship from Donggala
south to Pare Pare or to Ujung Pandang.2) Take a boat from Gorontalo's
harbor 3-5 days to either Bunta, Pagimana, Ampana or Parigi on the southern
shore of Teluk Tomini. P.T. Lamala has boats going to all these points
and is the cheapest company; for example, to Ampana it costs Rp3000 while
other companies charge Rp4-5000. From any of these villages there are
boats departing for Poso on the southernmost shore of Tomini Bay but be
prepared for a wait, departure times aren't at all regular. Ampana to
Poso, Rp2500; Parigi to Poso, Rp2500. Ampana is your best bet as a place
to get a boat to as there is a penginapan there (bargain hard for Rp400
rooms) and a few places to eat; just nasi campur, and no ice.3) From Pagimana,
go by road to Luwuk where boats are available to Kendari to the south
or north to Bitung.

we must point out a very important distinction which the Balinese make between
two clearly separate groups of ancestors. The first of these groups consists
of the dead who are riot yet completely purified. This group is in turn subdivided
in pirata, those riot yet cremated, and pitara, those already cremated. The
former are still completely impure; the latter have been purified, but are still
considered as distinct, individual souls. The second group consists of the completely
purified ancestors who are considered as divine. Everything Bali Indonesia |
