Another weekend come and gone


Weeks just seem to be flying by lately. It has now been 2 months since we left home. Some days it feels like we've been here forever and other days it's as if we just got here. Jared held his first guys poker night in Jakarta on Friday night which was a success (for Jared anyway!). We indulged in a 2 hour massage on Saturday morning and brunched with some friends on Sunday morning.

The weather in Jakarta has been crazy lately. It turns out that there really wasn't much of a dry season here this year. There are times that after only an hour of rain, streets are flooded with water past your ankles. The rain is really affecting the locals. Their homes are getting flooded every few days. Most of them use motorcycles as their means of transportation, which are close to impossible to maneuver in that kind of rain. I think that the locals discuss their rainfall just as much as we discuss our snowstorms.

I keep forgetting to bring my camera along when I go out, so for now, I have posted a photo of our typical evening at home. Maya wresting with Daddy before bath and bed!
