Day 11

Sarah was taken ill last night so spends the day in bed; I spend some time in my own company, snorkelling and reading. Today whilst snorkelling I find a huge moray eel, also spend some time following a big group of electric blue squid.
The monkeys turn up at our porch again about mid-afternoon. The big male enjoys sitting in the tree in front of us scratching his manhood. Two local dogs that had spent the day lounging on our porch jump in our defence, barking and running around the trees. The monkeys jump down and take swipes at the dogs, narrowly avoiding their snapping jaws.

There's lots of Muslims taking holidays on Wey. It’s to be expected as Indonesian population is 88% Muslim - but I'm still confused when I see a woman wearing a full burka comes swimming past, snorkelling in the sea. It seems unfair when the men stroll along in their shorts, shades and t-shirts, the women following hastily behind covered from head to toe.
