So unfortunately, Jake and I both caught a little flu-type illness in the past few days. Thankfully, it only lasted about a day, but no fun nonetheless. Not quite sure where it came from. Some theories: the heat, the smog, the constant cigarette smoke, something we ate. Dunno. Especially after being sick, and after eating noodles and rice for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for several days, I am really missing some food that is more familiar to me. We have decided to try to find pizza for dinner today. We attended part of another conference this morning, on Geographical Information Systems, i.e. presenting your data with maps. Something they did
that I've never seen at a conference before, was offering prizes for people who asked the best questions! Well guess who got second place and won a giant ~2 ft. by 1 ft. Atlas of Indonesia book? Jake! haha. --->
Other excitement of the past few days: our first ride in a tok tok (a 3-wheeled motorized vehicle with a cab on the back for passsengers) and discovering the store in the mall that sells DVDs for 7,000 Rp. (=80 cents)!
The view from the back of a tok tok!

An atlas is a pretty sweet prize.
