Ethan loves traveling . . . and now we're home

We're back. Our fantastic journey is now complete. As you can see, Ethan enjoyed himself. We arrived in Jakarta at 9:00pm and the contrast was noticeable. Perth: cool, clean air, crisp blue skies, orderly traffic. Jakarta: muggy, hot, hazy, crazy traffic. But it felt sooo good to be back.

After we spent the night in Jakarta (no flooding to delay us, just traffic), we checked in for our flight to Surabaya, turned the corner at the terminal to find . . .
Today we're unpacking, getting our water working again, shopping, and meeting up with friends. It's a cultural tradition to bring "oleh-oleh" (souvenirs) back from long journeys for our Indonesian friends. We got some cool Aussie bags, caps, and boomerangs to give out.
