Day 3 - Beach view is the best

We got 2 problems when we want to go to the lake at solok. First, the radiator of our car got very hot because the seal was gone, and the second, one of our tires goes flat.

but luckily after some creativity hacking the radiator, we found a lotek house.. another good food. But this is only for brunch.. not lunch yet.

The best consolation for all our disappointments is the fish barbecue near the city... this is very recommended. As you can see, my aunt feels very full... yummy

We went to air manis beach after lunch, there is some indonesian legend over there, it's called Malin Kundang, it's about the child who forget his mother.

I personally very disappointed about the conservation of this place, it seems they (the Pemda) don't really understand the value of this place, the place is very scenic, the panorama is very beautiful but the site is not very well organized.

we moved to carolina beach after air manis. It's beautiful but i think the place is not very well maintained because the drop of the tourism in Indonesia (i think), the place is a little bit dirty.

But in the way home we stayed a little longer in the mountain area to watch the sunset. It's worth waiting.
