Karimunjawa - Indonesia Travel Agent
Thank you for all those suggestions and ideas. I think I rather travel in a rental car, because it's safer. I don't mind being tired. I travelled around other countries by car and it was good because of the independancy. I'm not gonna carry my bag all the time. My back is almost a cripple after walking 48 days in Japan.
