Jakarta-Surabaya - May 2007

We landed in Jakarta on a Wednesday. On Thusrday we just chilled and my nephew and I decided to look see around Bumikarsa in Jakarta.



Now my nephew can be quite inquisite..



and can be very creative !

an affectionate moment with Dhavve



I hooked up with some friends in Jakarta and we went for a lil' clubbing



and we hit Hard Rock Cafe



on Friday we did some sight seeing..



now this is a picture of Teh Botol.. and that's precisely what it is.. teh in a botol.. now teh botol is BIG in Jakarta.. so make sure u try it ya



shopping complexes in Jakarta.. if you are into getting your hair done, this is the place.. a complete hair treatment costs RM 10.. wohooo we pampered ourselves like no tomorrow :)



then came Saturday.. we left Jakarta for Surabaya



statues such as this one.. Rama of Ramayana are popular in Jakarta.. This one was taken in the airport



a volcano we saw en route to Surabaya



This is how Surabaya got its name.. Sura, which means shark in Tamil and baya, which means buaya.. The shark and buaya got into a fight.. errm.. hence the name !



traffic jam !
