Heavy rain, Garut skipped, straight to Pangandaran

Bandung was clear in the morning, but the sky turned grey over Nagreg. Two hours later my rain jacket was soaked from the inside and the road to Garut was full of standing water.
I decided to skip Garut. Cangkuang Temple can wait, my body and boots cannot. Through Tasikmalaya the rain eased, and by late afternoon I could smell the sea through the visor.
A day early
In the plan, Pangandaran was only day three. With Garut skipped, I arrived a day early and still caught the last of the sun on the beach. Bu Ning's grilled fish closed a wet day very well.
