Not Saying Good-Bye

Said one final good-bye to the helpers. Bitter sweet. Enjoyed one
last visit with Polehan families. One last cream bath with hand and
foot reflexology/massage. One last dinner with live Indonesian music
- well, a lady singing in Indonesian. Took one last joyride with
Jennifer around town on our motorcycles. It was so great to go back
up to the top of the mountain where I first practiced to ride.

It's WAY early in the morning. We're struggling to wake up, if even
just enough to finish packing last minute items, grab a shower and
load the bus... We have 2 travel days, so hopefully a lot of time to
rest along the way!

My time with friends here has come to an end way too quickly. I'm
glad I think the last time I saw each of them, I didn't really think
it would be the last time. Lelly had Pandu draw a caricature of us.
Love it! Sorry, I already packed it or I'd post a picture...
Anyway, soon enough - you can see it in person.
