Well I am back from Indonesia and I had a great time. I dont have long to write just now, so here is what I got up to in a nutshell:
Visited Sea World where there was some really huge fish, including different kinds of sharks, octopus, shrimps, Ray's and Turtules (Yes menessxo even Turtles!)
Also went to the safari theme park and saw the Elephants, Lions, Tigers, Harts, Buffalo's, Boars, Giraffes, Rhino's and Hippo's. There was a lot more animals, I was overwhelmed at seeing so many species all at once.
Saw the Deftones live in concert in Jakarta, it was their first time playing in Indonesia and they were totally awesome.
I also visited the royal palace of the Sultan of Jogjakarta, which was pretty cool, I saw singing and dancing, and the old Dutch and Tribal style architectures there.
Went to some volcano's and saw the destruction they had caused to the forests and villages. Also went to see the refugee village where about 1000 people were displaced, it was being handled well by the government from what I saw and lots of ministers seemed to be travelling to and from the area.
The scary bit was when on mount Bromo, it is active and started shaking the car and making loud banging sounds, like a drum mixed with explosions, it was a unique sound and very terrifying, add to that the volcanic ash which was everywhere, its very dangerous to breath it in, because it turns into concrete inside the lungs and obviously that is lethal. We did not hang around though, we covered our mouths and stayed in the car, then got out from the mountain as quick as we could. Visibility was low as it was night time and the ash was thick. Respect to all those who have to deal with that shit day in day out.
Another cool adventure was to see the Hindu and Buddhist temples, which were ancient and huge, very interesting for history buffs like myself!
Anyway, some pics
This was just an altercation I had with Iron Man in the Mall
A fish in Sea World
The Dancing Eel in Sea World
Hindu Temples in Jogja
Myself in the Temple gardens
Standing on one of the temples
Some of the damage from the lava flows and quakes
Chino singing at the concert
The set list from the show
Me at the beach
Take care folks and thanks for checking in!
