The first weekend away.

This weekend we flew to Yogyakarta, on the other side of Java. We didn't spend much time in the city, but left from there to see Borobudur, a Buddhist temple built ~800 A.D. After that, we went to a smaller town nearby, where we found ourselves in the midst of a monkey war! We stumbled upon a bunch of them in the road and I thought they were so cute until they started fighting with each other, which was scary! From the town, we hiked to Chandi Sukuh, a Hindu temple built in the 15th century. That was also neat, but my favorite part was the walk there. We wandered along a road through a valley with a few villages and hills filled with crops and people working in their fields. The scenery was incredible and the people were so friendly. THIS was the Indonesia I've been waiting for...amazing. I'll let the pictures do the talking!
