Bali to Batam

Let's face it, October was kind of a slog.  We left Bali in early October and spent almost three weeks just making the miles to reach the top of Indonesia.  Long HOT motoring and a few over-nighters.  This is the not the fun part of cruising but it is necessary if you ever want to get anywhere! We did cross the equator for the first time since 2007.  Great to be back on our side of the world.  Our destination was Nongsa Point Marina on Batam Island.  This is where we would check out of Indonesia and head onward to Singapore.  Below, a few pictures from the trip.
