Photos from Jakarta

Forgot to attach them.

Waiting for Sate

A view from Jakarta

Received a couple of photos taken today. One is a street vendor scene at night while waiting for an order of sate ayam and sate kambing. Yum, that food is calling from there :) as Eko and Nana were buying some for dinner across the street from Reza and Iin's home. Sure miss those good times.

The second photo is a very large insect hanging on the fence at home. It apparently eats in the rice paddy though.

Also some news about new jobs and busy times there but a three day weekend is coming next week. I don't think many were celebrating St. Patrick's day though.

Indonesian meal Sacramento style!

We have really been missing our nasi since we got home nearly a month ago.

Today we enjoyed an early evening bike ride to the local Indo Cafe  and had a great meal while chatting about Jakarta and other things. Mmm, just what we needed. It would have been fun if Elle and family could have joined us. Lien kali!

Laurie had nasi goring and I had Sate ayam and we shared Tahu isi and were happily stuffed for our American river bike trail ride home as the sun was setting. We plan to go back for more soon.

This meal reminds me of Indonesia!

Ah, Sate ayam!

First bite & fancy fork work

Happy Dale!
