Indonesia - Bali and Java visit 2004This is a featured page

We have just came back from the States for about three weeks when it is time to wheel-off the suitcases again. This time to Indonesia to visit my family. My mum has not seen Maija for two months thus after she has been in UK for Maija's birth. Both my sisters, Maya and Debby and also Maya's husband, Ari, have not seen Maija since she was born.
We all looking forward to see my family and relatives and indeed, basking in more warm weather. The worst for us is, off course, the opposite of clock work. Jetlag rings a loud bell again!

We also have arranged for Maija to be christened in Bogor, Beth's home town. Before that we have some holiday catching up to do, hard job indeed but some of us have to do it :-). We spent time in Bali for two weeks with Kirsty, Neil, Alan and Lauren who came and joined us from England. We have a fantastic time together enjoying plenty of sunshine, good food, gallons of Ice tea (beer and gin tonic too!) spa and a complete relaxation.

Maija was christened in a small church in Bogor on Boxing day, 26th December 2004. The unforgettable day as it was also shared by the fate of the Earth quake and Tsunami disaster struck in North Sumatra Island which echoed across Thailand, Sri Lanka, India, Nicobar Island and including East African's coast. Fortunately, we were miles away in Java.
