Gedung Songo, Bandungan

We headed to a local area attraction on a neighboring mountain side.














You can do the walking route, or the horse route. :) There are numerous OLD Hindu temples and piles of old ruins.














Getting a horse....

































Girl Scout ladies heading home. In what.... ? ... :) in the back of a big dirt truck.














One of the 'candi's' (chandy) - temples.. with us! :)


















Between the candi's is a ravine with sulfuric steam vents, and bubbling mud/water. When we were there last time there were just steps down each side of the ravine and kind of a cement/mud path to these vents. It is really nice now! :) The hot bathing pool has a cost of .30 cents. :)
























































































When we (Rachel, Mom, Dad, Shane and I) met up again with the rest of the crew who had arrived back at the stables, we had some nice soft, cute little bunnies to pet and hold. :) (here's for you Neal!)

Sightseeing..... (Maybe one of the houses the Whatleys lived in when they first arrived to the field - and the house Alan was born in.)

Walk Down Memory Lane

Today we walked down memory lane, at least Tim, Shane and Nathan did. We visited the old high school - Wajuk Hulu along with the Equator marker. (It was POURING rain!!)

We were only allowed on the old school property for a very brief time. Here are a few snapshots for you Indo MK's who might be curious! :)
















































One of the original guys who was there in the 'beginning' and later worked as a yard guy.


















How the guys remembered it....











They guys on the line! :)


















Rare footage, caught on tape, of the elusive Karen Whatley........


















The top ball.....














The guys reading the statistics.....














HIGH resolution pic. (for once!) of the sign with the statistics. You should be able to click on it for the enlargement. (Am enjoying the wireless capabilities for these few days!)

Visiting the Sheriffs

Ah! Had you worried there, didn't I??!! :)

We had a lovely visit with the Sheriffs as their daughter, Sarah, was back to Indo for a brief 3 week visit. We ate lunch at a local fish place.... :)
