TE 2009 – Day 19 (Aug 30)

Saturday, 19 September 2009
Jakarta, Indonesia

After a long and exhausting flight (the Gang of Four was unfortunately not upgraded this time), the Gang finally touched Indonesian soil again at 17:40, when the Luftwaffe plane landed in Jakarta (after a short stop-over in Singapore).

We collected our baggage, and I was responsible for finding a taxi for the Gang. So I did, and our taxi driver was of the laughing type; he will be remembered as The Laughing Taxi Driver. He took us to the usual residence in Cibubur, a Jakarta suburb, where we stayed for the night. Since The Laughing Taxi Driver was such an admirable man, we agreed with him to pick us up at 04:00 the next morning, when we would catch a plane on our last leg back to Balikpapan.

Tour Europe 2009 was coming to an end.
