Along our route today the coast line is very much deserted. Only a few houses are to be seen. Nothing, which looks like a village. Big bays, small bays with plenty of reefs to be seen.

The hills are too a larger extend ‘dry-brown’, palm trees are missing. The jungle like forest is missing. I wonder what caused this. Too much logging? I have no answer.

Eearlier to this, there was a nice roll of clouds coming over the higher mountains. It was a very nice example of clouds rolling over a mountain ridge.
