Lake Toba is a relatively difficult overland journey but worth the hardship. It is an equatorial volcanic highland crater lake with an enormous central island, Samosir.

The beauty and tranquility of this location warranted at least a week or ten days for rest and rejuvenation before continuing on the trail. This image was taken with a Yashica ELECTRO 35CC. The negative was scanned with an HP Scanjet G4050 and restored with multiple Photoshop operations.

At the edge of Lake Toba is the town of Parapat. The pictured transit center has a fascinating assortment of animal drawn vehicles, bicycles and even an occasional car.
