Nihi Sumba, Thursday evening
It was almost hard to imagine from this tiny little slice of quiet that Sumba is home to almost 800,000 people scattered through thousands of villages. Careful conservation--and Bali as an example of what not to do--has left Sumba feeling like a special, undiscovered piece of heaven.
The sun slowly sinking into the ocean tonight certainly didn't hurt with that impression. The aftenoon rain shower hadn't killed the humidity at all, but it made the various tropical plants extremely happy and the air was heavy with their perfume. Linger over drinks and food, watch the horses as they run through the surf, take a deep breath and relax.
Don't think about this being the second to last night of the trip.
