Komodo Construction started!
Please excuse our brief absence - we have finished up the Season in Khao Lak, taken the Jaya on a massive expedition from Thailand to Komodo and now we are opening our small shop in Labuan Bajo in 6 days.
Been a very busy time!
We hope that everyone who comes to visit us realizes that Indonesia is NOT the first world. In many ways, it makes Thailand look like a first world country.
And then to realize that Flores (home to Labuan Bajo) is considered a backwater!
Our small shop has a great location and is very, very easy to find.
However - it's just small! Very, very, very small!
With a foot print of 2 meters x 4.5 meters, we won't be spoiling you with luxury!
Day one found us setting the pillars. These are recycled wood, as is most of the construction material (Roofing tiles will be new).
The little building to the right is a police post - though they have not been seen in there for a couple years :) We are also going to adjust and repaint this...never know when a happy policeman can come in handy :)
The second Day found us pulling down some of the tree (sorry tree) and building the first part of the frame. with such a small size, we are able to move pretty fast!
Watch for a few more posts over the next few days as we finish this off and start getting everything ready!
June 3rd our first trip is departing and we have already had a couple weeks of GREAT diving!
