Ok, this video file is too large, so it streams haltingly, so in the next few days I am going to work on making it more compressed. I am working on part 2.

If you click on play, then stop it, wait for it to completely download, then click play again, it plays smoother. Of course the original is real smooth.

DON'T COMPRESS IT! It streams perfectly full screen and is a beautiful video!

Now I really want to check the place out. That is going to be a LONG flight.

Anyway, is that your voice as the narration?

Yes, that is my voice in the video intro. The narration has a vocal style that has less modulation than my regular speech.

The flight is really no big deal, I sleep half the the time during these flights. Mimpi Indah is the place I visited and wrote the 600 word review in our Indonesia Suryga Divers regional forum.

The place just could not be more quiet unless you discount the lapping waves and the occasional chirp of geckos throughout he night.

I should have taken some video clips of the bungalows, they were really nice.

In spite of the fantastic, secluded location, a stay at Mimpi Indah is quite affordable, plus they do day trips to the Lembeh Straits.

I don't know of any of the places you are talking about, but I am going to look on google earth to see what you are talking about. My wife and I are always looking for places to travel that are not the normal tourist destinations. This looks like it may fit the bill nicely.
