Days 2-3 - Bogar, Indonesia

We arrived in Jakarta via Singapore at about 11:30 AM on Thursday night. After taking a few hours in the visa line and trying to be ripped off by all the local porters in the baggage claim area we got out and Amy and Arif were there waiting for us. It was about an hour and a half to the resort where we were staying. Of course, we couldn't fall asleep. After finding the in room mini bar we went to bed at about 2:30 AM.

The resort is very nice. (Picture is out our window)



We had breakfast and then got a little tour of Bogar from Amy and Arif. We visited the Botanical Gardens and drove past the summer Presidential Palace. The president has a pension for deer so there are thousands of tame deer on his lawn. It was really interesting. We went and found some Betik shirts for the wedding for the guys and then ate at a local restaurant.

We came back and hit the ice cold pool. Brrrr. We then went to the rehearsal dinner and the wedding rehearsal where Cathy and I have a reading to do. The wedding is at 9 AM tomorrow. We then went to bed and tried to get our body clocks on track. More pictures and things hopeful,y tomorrow. The Internet is a little sketchy in our room.
