A change in plans

Thursday, 29 May 2008
Balikpapan, Indonesia

For some reason I quickly became bored after a few days in the big durian (Jakarta), not sure why. So when I woke up yesterday, I grabbed my laptop and booked an evening flight back to Balikpapan. Luckily, flights are cheap and frequent in this country (and easy to book on Internet!), so I only paid Rp 620,000 (around USD 65).

Astrid, Made and Sanjay picked me up in the airport. Those 3 (and Caecil) are the people I hang out most with in Balikpapan.

I will still be roaming Java, but I will stay here a few days first, before flying directly to Yogyakarta in Central Java, or just Jogja as it is most commonly called.
