heaven on earth to whom every craving for tranquility

must admit that my friend’s provocative story about the heavenly fell on this place was true, it just lack of the angels. I try to teach several of the local kids how to float on water, they seems to don’t know that the salt water makes us easier to float around. But they apparently find it difficult to communicate with stranger, or maybe is likeier about languange barrier. This brief fun interraction adds a memory to this visit. It was a scorching day, but the trees around the lake provide some shady. I spoke to one of the official, they mention about several development being plan, that includes a resting place and a stairs will be built to provide easiness to the visitors to reach the lake side.I try to give them a suggestion if they decide to build a resting place it needs to be kept natural. So it won’t “contaminate” this beautiful Lake, the Weekuri Lake, the paradise lost of Sumba.
