Palangkaraya



Stopping for fuel.




Chris and Julene's home where we are staying. Julene has everything spotless! We have our own bedroom and ensuite...not really roughing it.


Dan gets on his moped to go with Chris to work hours after landing. Stay on the left side Dan!





This is the new hangar that Chris is in charge of building for the float planes. It is a massive floating concrete structure.



Here comes the plane!








Welcome to Jakarta

We arrived in Jakarta the land of 1,000,000 mopeds/motorcycles. I have never seen anything like it. This is the parking lot at the airport.

A little jet lagged but happy and well.



Authentic Indonesia meal. We found this really cool restaurant, after a bit of a run around with our taxi driver, and opened up the all Indonesian menu.

The final countdown


Well it is amazing to think that something that we started dreaming about a year ago is now only a couple of days away. It astounds me when I think about how everything has come together, making it so easy for us to leave for a month, from how slow our business is to God's leading to home school. We are looking forward to spending a month away and reconnecting with friends who live far away. We pray that we will be an encouragement and a light to those who cross our path as we journey. We pray also for patience, love and laughter. Let's get going on our adventure and see where it leads...

For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:11-13
