Just imagine: to be that out of the way makes the place stunning already. The trip to the local market made us feel like former Lady Di on Australia Tour -- you just have to focus on the small stuff; this will be rewarding itself. Raja Ampat is an outstanding experience anyway and (in our opinion) even Sorong does not deserves to be called "so wrong".
