Backseat driver

This way, hon!

4 people in their version of a family sedan = a motorcycle. Though the kids are asleep, Mom can still help Dad through traffic. Awesome.

Where's the knife?

The new look of setting the table

Indonesians typically eat with spoon and fork, using the fork as a pusher or holder, while the spoon picks up the food. We spotted this formal place setting before Thanksgiving at Setiabudi, a local shop.

The Monkey King

Seen along the jungle trail

On the way to see the volcano crater, we spot this creation over a dead tree stump.

Custom-built bike seat

Would you put your child in this handmade bicycle seat? 

No seatbelt needed = kids learn to hang onto mom and dad as infants, whether on bicycles or motorcycles. (No worries about smoking in a shop filled with flammable wicker, either.)
