In my last post I mentioned I had a burn wound on my leg.  It became infected and after my trek in the north Sumatran jungle I decided cancel my planned trip to Sulawesi, and to get to a doctor asap.

So, after debating with myself over whether or not I should return immediately to Sydney, I eventually decided to head to Jogja again where I knew it would be easy to spend a few days recovering.  I'm thinking of doing some travel around Java, or perhaps even a short trip to Bali once the leg is well and truly on the mend.

I went to the international hospital in Jogja, where almost no one spoke any English, and got some antibiotics for the infection. It's not too bad, and the burn would should recover a lot faster now.

Missing Sydney, and friends and family, but don't want to go back yet!  There are more experiences to be had!
