Just wanted to say hi to everyone. We had a 12.5 hour flight yesterday from Vancouver to Hong Kong... and then 3.5 hours from Hong Kong on to Singapore. We made the connection but our checked bag did not, so they told us to take a later flight because of security issues with baggage on the flight or whatever. Anyways, we spent $75 and 6 hours at the Transit hotel in Singapore. We are feeling refreshed and rested and ready for our 1 hour flight from Singapore to Yogyakarta, Indonesia (on the island of Java).
We hope to see some ruins tomorrow and then head on to Mt. Bromo which is a days travel away from Yogya... and then it's on to Bali where it will turn into the first real vacation we have taken in a long time. Some of you are thinking, what the heck, Stef and Pete go on vacation every year... but really when we travel, it is not actually vacation. It is a lot of long days, sweaty bus rides and very little time spent at each destination. So pretty much, I cannot wait to get to Bali, of course I will enjoy the ride along the way though! We have always wanted to get here.
More updates to come! Ciao for now!
