Still sailing in company with Graham and Liz on Ellida, we arrived safely in Rinca and had a couple of days in the south and west of the island seeing a monitor lizard (AKA Komodo Dragon) and hordes of monkeys on nearby beaches. The wind was very strong with gusts over 30 knots. Finally we booked the 7am long tour on Rinca with a ranger and we got up close and personal with many dragons. Just occasionally we were a little too close like when Jeremy was stroking this dragon's tail and the dragon turned fairly quickly. All was well and we saw deer, wild boar, water buffalo, monkeys and VERY scarily a cobra, as well as various birds. We visited the water hole where David Attenborough filmed the Komodo Dragons.
