I seem to remember that someone in this forum [U]lives or works at Balikpapan[/U]. We are thinking of travelling there for a few days (from Bali)...maybe up to a week, just to see what's there! Can you recommend a really great hotel ( I have been looking at the Gran Senyiur as we like older, more historic hotels but its not essential if a newer hotel is far better), cost not a big issue as it appears that most accommodation there is very reasonably priced anyway. .... and what should we NOT miss out on. We are a married couple in our 60's..reasonably fit....but we are not interested in hard core trekking. And is August a good time to go....we know it will be hot but maybe not as hot as Dec-March. Thanks in advance...

Mutshiela you never cease to amaze me! You are active over about 20 forums as "bossman" and seem to know everything that's happened in them all or has ever been written in each of them over the last 10 years. You run a tight ship - And you DO IT ALL FOR FREE!!
Where do I get staff like this? Is there a factory in OZ turning them out?
Forgot possibly the most important trait - she pays for beers!

You have hit the nail on the head. That is the same reason I like her. She pays for beer.
