Christmas morning, Santa even visited us in Indonesia and filled our stockings with treats!
Amanda grinding Sambal on a river stone.
The view from the balcony of our traditional Batak house we stayed in for Christmas and Christmas Eve.
Sun shining on the rice paddies make for a beautiful landscape
A moonscape view from the hot springs.
Colin and a friend from Jakarta contemplating the hot hot springs. Do we jump in or not?
Wind blowing through our hair as we admire the beautiful landscape.
Sitting lake side at sunset
Batak houses line the shore of Lake Toba in Tuk Tuk (the main tourist area on the island)
A shitty 6 hour bus ride to Parapat, the jumping off point for Samosir on Lake Toba. We sat on the floor by the toilet on the bus and inhaled second hand smoke, but made it!
Grand Mosque, Medan. The kids use the grounds as a soccer field.
Easter chicks, I wonder if they taste like jelly beans. Just another offering at the local market, Bukit Lawang.
Amanda in front of our tree house bungalow at the Garden Inn. It set us back about $7 a night.
Ajis, our other jungle guide leading us through the rapids in our jungle taxi. He ran into the jungle and dressed himself up to keep us entertained, talk about hard working!
Jungle Eddie talking about the honey bears and the jungle fauna. Have you heard of him, cuz he's a pretty big deal.
Jungle lady with jungle hat in the jungle.
Jungle boy with jungle knife in the jungle.
Cheesy waterfall photo, but who can resist?!
What's up cuz? Two apes in the jungle.
OOOO OOOO OOO OOORANG-UTAN!!!!!!!!! Momma orang-utan hanging out in the trees.

ReplyDeleteThank you SO much for keeping up this blog! AMAZING stuff.
ReplyDeleteHey Guys Happy New Year - I'm glad Santa was good to you! Are you kidding me?!?! Everything looks amazing. I'm sharing these with Jodi but I see that we have another place we need to visit. I hope we can hear about this when you come back. Back to the non-stop rain and 40 degree grey slog of Seattle. I'm sure you're really missing it. keep the sambal out of your eye. Colin - have you been working out?
