OFF ON HOLIDAY!

Posted by: Andrew : Category: Thinking Out Loud

Ok it’s 3:51am at the moment and Susan, Daniel and I are getting some last minute things together before we head to the airport. Yep we are going on holiday, we are rather excited as this doesn’t happen that often with us.

We will be taking off at 7am WIB (Western Indonesian Time) and flying off to Pontianak and then hop into a taxi and set off on a 3 hour trek into the back of nowhere.

So this Christmas we’ll be spending it near the jungle of Borneo. The temperature will be about 32C, but with the rainy seasion in full force with tropical showers the temperature could be a bit lower.

I’d say there will be plenty of mountain hikes as the house we’ll be staying in is located at the foot of a mountain. And let’s see if I can get a jungle trek organized.

Well I have to go; my lovely wife is sitting next to me watching me with big wide eyes (saying “Stop blogging and help me!) so I better go.

As you can probably guess I wont have any internet connection in the jungle but, I have organized some surprises for you so keep coming back and checking it out, even better sign up for my RSS feeds with FeedBurner (black sidebar).

Well take care and have a happy, safe, fun-until-you-drop Christmas!

Andrew, Susan & Daniel
