BONJOZA AT PUTERI HARBOUR MARINA

Since arriving back at Puteri Harbour Marina from our trekking throughout Thailand & Malaysia, we've settled right back into our normal routine, which includes listening to the local band, Bonjoza, every week-end. From the time we first arrived at Puteri Harbour Marina with the "Sail Indonesia" Rally, we've been entertained by this fantastic group of guys every Saturday & Sunday at the marina's restaurant. On a few occasions, Rees was even invited to play along with the band on his bongo drums, so not being shy at all, he was up there with the guys, banging away with a smile from ear to ear, pretending he was actually part of the band!

The four band members all have "day time" jobs but music is their love & it shines through as they play a great variety of songs, hour after hour. The yachties just love them & quite often get up to dance while the locals are content to sit & listen. We've really enjoyed our long stay at Puteri Harbour Marina but it will be soon time to move on as the "East Malaysian Rally" gathers momentum & celebrates the first of its festivities tonight at Danga Bay, a few miles further north. It will be hard saying farewell to all our new Malaysian friends but hopefully, we'll meet again somewhere in the future.
