I had checked out of my room this morning but had left my baggage at the hotel so around 2pm I start walking back to the hotel but stop for lunch along the way. Meal of rice and supposedly "not spicy" shrimp were quite spicy!!!! but it was OK.

At the hotel I ask about transportation to Jakarta and there seems to be just be public bus!!!! or train. So ...

... but Robbie and me didn't want to buy the tour, although it seemed good, we had other plans and weren't convinced about it. We arrived at our hostel; Abu Pensione, which was a nice, relatively clean place, after we went to Cebar Raya; the royal botanic gardens, located in the centre of town, which was really pleasant and tranquil, a haven away from the hustelf of the roads and ...

Bogor's main attraction is its huge botanical gardens, but I had an overall lovely experience there. I checked in to a guesthouse with a cool chill-out space on the roof. Bogor is the 'city of rain': it rains pretty much everyday in late afternoon, so I decided to go buy an umbrella. You would think that finding an umbrella in the city of rain would be easy, but it isn't. I went to the big department store in the mall that sells a bit of ...

... where we'd be dropped. We couldn't find the spot the woman pointed out, so we went with another stop next to Freedom Square. Gambir is not only a city bus stop - it's also a train station and the place to catch buses and taxis to the airport. Thus it was a good choice for us, since we'd need to go back to get to the airport. Then we walked maybe a kilometer and down a couple random streets until we found Jalan Jaksa. It wasn't ...

... and snacks along the beach. Seaworld This giant oceanarium proudly introduces visitors to more than 4,000 fish and sharks from 300 species. Come and enjoy the deep-sea panorama while strolling through an 80-meter tunnel. The fascinating creatures live in some 500 million liters of seawater and are fed three times a day (some hand-fed). The attraction also features a theater which plays three educational films in English and Bahasa Indonesia. Open ...

Maar normaal ga ik (blijkbaar) best vaak naar d ekoelkast, maar als ik dta nu doe en ik maak de deur heel voorzichtig open dan hoor ik haar deur alweer open gaan en pak ik niet de overheerlijke grote vette chocolade taart die mij ontzettend aanstaart...maar een stukje wortel ofzo.....zodat ze ...

... to holes in points giving a bird's eye view of Indonesian traffic) Scooters hunt in packs and the women on the back never wear helmets and never hold on. 'Bajaj' are orange almost slower than a walking pace, so common they make the air sweet with two stroke and stop in the middle of the road to offer you a ride. People in Jakarta love to say hello, 'hey mister' and also love to laugh at the tourists. Indonesian TV is hilarious the game shows having their own dance ...

... it interesting that even six months into this trip it's still possible to experience that kind of shock to the system. So, as you can probably gather, we don't like Jakarta very much and have decided to leave tomorrow, instead of staying the two nights we originally planned. We're heading for Bogor, which apparently has a lovely botanical garden, and we'll give Java another chance to impress me. (R)
