Betik & Stuff

I took a few pictures of the guys in their new betik shirts from our trip to Indonesia... Liam also got his first hit in baseball the other day... Here are a few photos.

Day 11 - Jakarta

We spent today driving into Jakarta and seeing some sights and shopping. We first visited the old Dutch part of town in what was originally Batavia. We had some coffee at the beautiful Cafe Batavia and visited the national museum, etc... The cafe is said to have one of the top ten bars in the world. Strangely enough it is covered in cow hide.

Cafe Batavia... duh.

Supposedly a top 10 bar in the world (according to Newsweek)

Just to try and show the sheer amount of traffic

We had lunch at a German restaurant which may sound weird but was delicious... Filling enough that dinner tonight was optional. We then did some shopping at one of the large malls in Jakarta and headed home in the crazy traffic. Arif drove today which is quite an adventure with all the cars and millions of little motorcycles.

Tomorrow morning we begin our trip for home. It will be nice to see Liam and Owen and sleep in our own bed.

Day 9-10 - Travlin' & Chillin'

Not much to report for these days as we traveled from Bali to Jakarta. We didn't have the fun of missing our flight like we did from Jakarta to Bali... But that was easy to live without. We did get to spend a short time in the ocean in the morning playing in the water and boogie boarding. The waves were huge!

It was nice to get to see where Amy (and Arif now) lives as well as their school. We had gotten the Skype tour previously but this was much better. The girls went and got some massages and shopped on Saturday and the guys just hung out. We had some great fresh seafood again on Saturday night. Enjoy the few pictures I have.

Day 8 - Rafting

Yesterday we went into the center of Bali again to go white water rafting. The girls were all excited because this was supposed to be some Eat, Pray, Love location tour where they filmed the movie... Whatever.

Rafting was very, very fun (except having to walk all the way back up to the top.

I'm told this is Eat, Pray, Loveish...

After rafting and lunch we came back to the hotel and then went out to watch the sunset on the beach.
