Did you have to pay to enter the island before or after the bridge? It was a paid for/ticket event if i remember correctly??
I always remember in Flores , Indo years ago when i paid for a ship ticket to the Togean islands as what must have been thousands of people got in these tiny boats on the shore and headed out to board the ship.
Fug me when all the boats got to the huge ship it turned into utter chaos. I'd never seen anything like it. Hundreds of people all trying to get up the fragile narrow stairway up the side of the boat at once, people getting crushed, all the screaming, people falling in the sea just so they could get a spot on the packed over crowded floor to sleep on. I guess all those ships were massively over booked.
I stayed on the small boat until the pushing and screaming stopped. It was so un British. God save the Queen...
