we stayed in a nice hotel - Saraswati
ready for our Yogyakarta adventure
this is really posted above most toilets
getting off the elephant (Roti) - ours (Sela) was walking away
she was chasing butterflies (flutter, flutter)
our elephants climbed up stairs
trying out the mask
sunrise at Borobudur
great family outing
it was so worth it! (sunrose behind a volcano that erupted in 2010)
waiting for sunrise (suprisingly awake and happy)
playing the Gamelan
Princess Iona (at the hotel restaurant with Melanie)
dipping her feet in the pool (it was HOT/humid in Indonesia)
Buddha with his feet on ground (rare) - my favorite Buddha so far
comparing bellies with the dwarf guards
she enjoyed the local music (he let her play a bit too)
cooling off in the pool
elephant ride - great way to start our day
Prambanan (Hindu) Temple (largest in Indonesia)
admiring the mask she picked out at the Sultan's palace
Water Castle (sultan's playground)
Melanie, Jason, and Iona with "guards" at the palace
the giant face (tongues out)
she's got the life
enjoying the Buddhist temple
climbing on the "monkey" (really lions, but the faces were monkey-like)
listening to the roosters wake up the villages in the distance
Another adventure with Melanie
