TE 2009 – Day 11 (Aug 22)

Tuesday, 15 September 2009
Jakarta, Indonesia

After saying goodbye to Uno, we drove from Trondheim in sunshine at 11:15 in Uno’s car, which we had borrowed. Next stop: the cabin in Valdres, 350 km from Trondheim. We made a quick stop to eat, and another stop at “Ridderspranget”, a small river canyon. We reached the cabin at 18:50. Ellen had arrived […]

I needed another social visit visa for Indonesia, so we walked to the Indonesian embassy first. It took only 10 minutes to get the visa, which costs 270 NOK. Thereafter we climbed (or walked) […]

Thursday, 10 September 2009
Jakarta, Indonesia

Not much time in the morning for anything; we just bought some pastry for breakfast at a nearby bakery before taking a pre-booked taxi to the airport around 11:00. We catched the 12:45 Norwegian flight to Oslo (NOK 705) after checking in with the unfriendly airport staff. Ellen picked us up at Gardermoen airport north […]
