Family Trip to the Meadows

For our faithful checkers, you will have already seen pictures of this place when we came through Palu for our visa work over a year ago. :) Here will be some pics of us all the other day. :)

Teh Botol in an Box...

Sunday night of the 14th, after our church natalan (Christmas Program) we, Shane, I, and Tim's family, headed off for a 6 hr. drive to Surabaya, north Java. We flew out of there at 11:30 for Palu, Central Sulawesi for a 2 week Christmas break.

At the airport we bought lunch, Tim's kids ordering 'Teh Botol' (Bottled Tea). I realize that that is just the brand name, but I thought it was pretty funny!
