Meeting old friends in Jakarta
In Jakarta , I met Monika and Elly, two of my ex-students. Monika is scam
as ever and Elly is cute as ever. They are doing good. It was nice to see
them. I found Jakarta very friendly, a bit like Manila perhaps. Early in
the morning kids come out and play street soccer. At night it's food galore,
I like the street-side stalls.
