Passport and visa in hand

Yesterday, we went to the Indonesian Consulate in Perth and picked up Ethan's passport with his visa stamped on the very first page. After that, we headed over to the travel agent to pick up our tickets. So we're all set. Well, at least for those two major steps. Now we just have to get ourselves packed, return all the stuff we've borrowed, say goodbye to many new friends, make one last run to Target . . .

We leave on Monday night (June 9) at 5:00pm bound for Jakarta. After overnighting downtown (and all appears clear - no flooding that we know of), we'll fly to Surabaya at 11:00am on Tuesday, June 10. Then, hopefully we'll have a short and uneventful drive to Malang, arriving just in time for dinner.
