At the end of August 2009 ; Friday night

 Had to leave early in the morning tomorrow so as not to fall behind the ferry. But as usual , yet we keep talking until after midnight . All the friends work together at that time , except Achile .
Half five in the morning , the sky was still dark , when we set Novem car ride and a taxi to the Muara Karang . This is not my first time to Muara Karang , before I had ever entered the fish market which is tucked next to the pier . Once arrived we went straight to the dock , here trap welcomed our party . It looks like the water was high tide, the road to the pier submerged ankle . It smells fishy ( pulau tidung ) , the mixture of salt water , solar and rotting fish . Achile leather sandals become the first victim , apparently one of the costumes . In the dim light of our street lights slowly down the puddle, sink holes scared . No one wants to wallow in the early morning in a place like this .
That early already crowded dock by the passengers , porters , boatmen and food vendors . On top of several ships that dock looks most passengers slept soundly in between piles of luggage . Many of those who had already come since late last night . As information , a trip to the islands via Muara Karang thousand departures only once in the morning ( between the hours of 6-7 am ) . The ship will return to the port around noon ( 12-13 hours a day ) . If late  pulau pari, it means having to wait until tomorrow .
We pay the ticket Rp crossings . 30.000/orang . Completed ticket affair , I had breakfast of chicken soup in the dock . Such early morning hot soupy food I think is pretty safe for consumption while the second was about the taste , considering the condition of the pier which is dirty and rundown . After killing time by chatting with the boatman and the other passengers and we decided to wait on a boat ride . Wooden ship that we were about 20 meters in length with a width of 5 meters . Passengers have the option to get into the ship's hull , or up to the top deck . Because you want to enjoy the view , we were sitting on pulau pramuka . Lucky deck of our ship comes from a tarpaulin roof coverings , if not ready to be exposed to the sun all the way .
