We had a great day in Java yesterday. It was a two hour bus ride to Borobaddur, but we had a police escort the entire way so we could go right by the traffic. Borbaddur is an ancient Buddhist area, similar but differnt from Angkor Wat. It was built in the eighth century A.D. and rediscovered in the late 1700s. It's quite spectacular (sorry, I can't post pictures like Grant--besides my pictures wouldn't be nearly as good as his are). We also had a great Indonesian lunch at a hotel there and a lovely concert and show by part of the National orchestra. Today we're sailing to Bali where we'll arrive later tonight. There's a BBQ on deck during the sail in, but we'll probably opt for Compass Rose. Tomorrow we'll spend the day at a Bali Resort.
