After a short walk on the roads, though, my lungs feel like they've been smoked on somebody's satay grill.<BR/><BR/>You should come check out the busway, though - the new dedicated bus corridor. You can get all the way from Blok M to Glodok in half an hour, even in total macet!<BR/><BR/>We'll definitely take the travel recommendations.<BR/><BR/>As for kittens, M, they can be kind of tragic here; they look so scruffy and vulnerable growing up on the street. They're still playful, though. It's reassuring to see them pounce on imaginary bugs or try to catch shadows. I guess they still get some kind of kittenhood, in spite of it all.Trishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16218984943813920951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22419242.post-1159296430924719792006-09-27T01:47:00.000+07:002006-09-27T01:47:00.000+07:00great photo of the boy with the cat. the kitty lo...great photo of the boy with the cat. the kitty looks like he owns that bench.<BR/><BR/>looking forward to more of your cat pictures...<BR/><BR/>(my sister just got a new kitten and sent a photo. he's got that "too cute to be believed" kitten look. makes you want to squeeze him).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22419242.post-1159294314029697752006-09-27T01:11:00.000+07:002006-09-27T01:11:00.000+07:00yes i do. though I admit after a total of about 3...yes i do. though I admit after a total of about 3 years there i got sick of the traffic and other little things that started to wear thin. I was there before suharto fell so it was really in the heyday, before the tension of 9-11 and the econonmic crisis. I could use a few days in Bali right now though,so enjoy. Check out munduk in the central mountains - beautiful. Also if you get to Lombok i recommend Pondok Santai in mangsit.brian yateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05989399589252398991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22419242.post-1159242383114539502006-09-26T10:46:00.000+07:002006-09-26T10:46:00.000+07:00Thanks!

From your blog, I gather that you lived in Jakarta ten years ago, you now live in Vancouver, you have a nice eye for photos, and you know a hell of a lot more about science than I do. Do you miss Jakarta?Trishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16218984943813920951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22419242.post-1159218282777221382006-09-26T04:04:00.000+07:002006-09-26T04:04:00.000+07:00love the blog. i used to live in Indonesia so thi...love the blog. i used to live in Indonesia so this is a welcome way to stay in touchbrian yateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05989399589252398991noreply@blogger.com
