What an amazing three week vacation it was that we spent in the exotic Asian country of Indonesia. Crowded cities, beautiful countryside, exotic jungle plants, endless rice fields, impressive Mosques and Hindu temples, happy and friendly people, much poverty and people living in shacks, lying on the beach, snorkeling, etc. These are some of the many places that we visited:

  • Jakarta
  • Bogor
  • Bandung
  • Samarang
  • Magalang
  • Yogjakarta
  • Solo
  • Batu
  • Mount Bromo
  • Kalibaru
  • Bali
  • Penida Island
  • Much, much more ...

You can see all of this for yourself in the Photo Album.

"Our prison, our dungeon, is in us. It's in our own mind, our own thinking. We strap ourselves in chains of our own making, and we do the same to each other. We train our children in the ways of bondage. All this is based on ignorance. We don't see our situation for what it is, nor do we see how to deal with it. We pass by the joys of life without knowing we missed anything."
