Bali - Indonesia


I took a week off while i was in Jakarta for Bali. Well since it is a tourist destination, so a visit is require. I went with my colleagues........







The Kuta Beach




Tanah Laut Temple








We went thru a small village and you can see womens and children walking to the nearby temple for blessings....



Well this is a famous seafood by the beach place and the area is call Jimbaran





Some traditional dance and ceremony......









And....the famous variety in Bali....






Jakarta



Well i was then assigned to Jakarta after my US trip from march to may. Jakarta is quite similar to Malaysia, so when i firstly arrived in Jakarta...i got a feeling that i am still in Malaysia. Unfortunately i seldom bring camera with me in Jakarta, so there is not much photos of it. But i knew some good Indonesian friends there and they are nice and cool to mix with..





Traffic jams are so common in Jakarta. Everywhere traffic jams.....






This can consider my first local food in Jakarta. My friend's brother brought me to this famous kwetiau siram that his sis loves it.

Butte, MT


Butte, Montana is a very small town. It is an small old town. I felt like i was in the 80's or maybe earlier time. They have only 30,000 people living in this place...not many cars or people on the streets.....well... just a real small town. It is near to Canada. It only needs 1-2 hours drive to Canada across the border. This is town was once a busy town in the earlier days. I read on some history of it, seems to be a places for stop over, gambling and brothels.

It was suppose to be Spring when i was there, but this place tends to have more cool days than warm days around the year and it actually snow heavily when i was there.
















Used to be a mini Chinatown there.


Snow heavily during Spring!!!! I was not aware and ready for the cold.






My flight was cancel the next day due to this heavy snow storm!!
