How to secure your becak with a single padlock. Clever stuff.

Fanatical Manchester United fan spotted in Jogjakarta. Clearly loving riding around on his mobile shrine. Crazy!

Stepped out for a spot of dinner in Jogjakarta. Pork sate & other goodies on the streets around Malioboro. Yum!

3.5kg of laundry washed & pressed for $2.50 & that was double price because we wanted it express (next day). Bargain!

Dinner at The House of Raminten. Very popular. Large queues. Horse stalls right next to kitchen! Completely crazy!

Sewu temple, right next to Prambanan. Really interesting to wonder ruins that are making a great puzzle for someone!

Lunch at Djun, Jogjakarta. Hot, hot, hot! I've taken to drinking sweet tea to cool down! Very nice for $2.65/person!

Very quick stop by tiny little Pawon Temple. Linked to Borobudur & Mendut one has to look, but really... it's tiny.

Last look back through the trees. Amazing to think it's around 1200 years old & was buried for literally centuries!

Someone told us that if you can touch one of the enclosed Buddhas & make a wish it will be granted. Here's hoping!

Putting on a brave face after 2:30am start! Easily worth the sleep deprivation, even if you can't tell from this!

Tried some light painting among the domes but ironically it's this shot of Jo doing the same I found most pleasing.

Tourists climb the stairs on Borobudur temple before dawn. Numbers are limited for sunrise but certainly worth doing!

What happens when someone doesn't trim the roots of a potted palm. Notice the one behind has broken it's pot anyway.

Arrived in Jogjakarta. No nonsense approach to leaving the station. Then crammed into a small taxi. Still having fun!

Scenes from a moving train, Surabaya to Yogyakarta. Mostly rural, with a little urban. Love the ever changing view.

Padang food in Surabaya. Yum! This place was pricey but sparkling clean & had the best beef Rendang. Lots o fun

Indonesian pavé! Rough as driving up & down. Easy for this guy with a huge bag of something on his scooter though.

Priorities in an Indo taxi: Seatbelts? Dashboard? Carpets? Working speedo? Rear door? Or 4500W video karaoke system?

Few random hillsides we passed. Amazing how locals get terraces on these. Was same (or even more crazy) around Bromo.

More than just a waterfall - short but nice forest walk to get there. Too short really though, I'd gladly see more.

Bakso dinner, Indonesian take on meat balls. I steered clear of chilli. Wise move as everyone else was ill next day!

Back at hotel not long after 9am. Could have had a lie in & seen this. Would have missed out on all the fun though

Final area of Mt Bromo crater: volcanic sands said to whisper, when they are not soaked! + more FJ40s for their fans.
