Japan May 2007

Hi there. So I've been very busy lately. First at work and most recently at play. I met up with Barbara, Beth and Alyson in Japan where we toured Tokyo and Kyoto in 8 whirlwind days. I stayed an extra weekend to hang out with Chris and Christina. Sorry, none of them is in the photos ;b For anyone who's been to Japan, you know it's a lot about temples and weird food. We did both. If you want details, send me an email. But, you know, it's mostly about the photos:)

The Wee Ones

It's impossible not to take a good picture of kids in Indonesia!

Who's the Boss?

From time to time, I squeeze some work in! Here are some of the people around Indonesia I work for:

Mt. Merapi April 21, 2007

Last weekend, my friend Jack and I joined the Java Lava hiking group to climb Mt. Merapi. You may remember hearing about Merapi last year as it is a volcano that nearly erupted last spring. Lucky for us, it's on a low simmer at the moment, but as we climbed the rocky peak, you could feel the warmth of the rocks and see, feel and smell the sulfur-infused steam escaping from cracks in the mountain. We peered into the mouth of the volcano, but alas saw mostly steam pouring up and out. The next morning, we visited the colorful, local market. Enough description, see for yourself!

Happy Birthday Jess!

Today is my sister Jessica's birthday! So here are a few photos I think she'd like.

Javana Spa, West Java

My friend Jenn and I went to Javana Spa this past weekend, perched high in the mountains of West Java. Gorgeous sunrises over volanic mountains Gede and Pangrango across a mist covered valley, waterfalls set in lush rain forest glens, and tropical flowers made for lots of visual interest. But the best part? The ducks.
