Pleasant Coincidence ~ Thursday's Reflections

It is a wonderful coincidence that my work can coincide with time and place with vacation plans from my youngest sister and her husband. We use this opportunity as a tour & travel time together while doing the main things from the trip.

This is the first tourist destination we visited while in Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara before we visited Kuta Mandalika Beach as I have shown in the post before this. This is Benete Beach, which is close to a port in a bay, Benete Bay.

Actually, this is on the west side of Sumbawa Island or West Sumbawa which is different from Lombok Island, which if you cross by boat will take about three hours but only ten minutes by seaplane.

We are happy to be able to enjoy the sunrise and enjoy various natural things there. I was amazed by the beaches that were still natural and lonely. Unfortunately, we can’t be too long there because we have other activities so we have to go back to Lombok. We have not been satisfied to enjoy the time to have fun there but also realize that this is an additional activity of work affairs, while there is little time.

  1. Thanks for the compliment, Ta.

    That’s why my camera has been left behind. I really enjoyed the moments of togetherness and I felt I didn’t want to end it so, in the end, I was in a hurry because the flight schedule was getting closer.

    • I do not like to stand idly by, so I still fill my time as a consultant besides a number of mass organization & NGO activities. Sometimes I can meet with siblings somewhere for a moment but this time it is more special because of the work, fun is also followed by moments of closeness together since the start.

  3. i always enjoy time with my younger sisters. Family is such a great joy!
    The landscape in South East Aisa is amazing, thanks for sharing these wonderful pictures!

    • Nice to know people who are close to family. Not everyone has that.
      My youngest sister is my closest sibling emotionally.
      You have good reason to praise Southeast Asia, sir. Thank you so much, Doc.

        • We feel we have a special relationship with them, right?
          I am from five siblings, and she, since childhood, is the one who cares most about me and vice versa. I love my other siblings too, of course, but to her, I feel more special. Sometimes such feelings cannot be avoided.

          • I suspect that is true in all families. I know that I was taught to be protective to the degree of my little sister. There was a bond built, however, with me reading to her and taking her with me when I went various places.
