Catching up on pictures

The Olvers and Williamsons joined us at the hostel for a Christmas day meal.

This is a "pondok natal," which translates to "Christmas hut." Locals build these and blare music from them at all times of day. Is it Christmas music, you ask? Sometimes...sometimes not. We have heard a variety of music and one time I heard an old Disney sounding grandpa voice telling a Christmas story.


Cale enjoys spending time with Uncle Jason's snakes.

Jaalah and Lexie are blowing bubbles for the snake.

Sophie and Dad went up on MacArthur's hill and took in this breathtaking view.

Emma got a new bag for Christmas.

Sophie got a block puzzle.


And Cale got new shades. Now he looks like Elvis.

When the dorm kids left, the pembantus did a major clean of the kitchen.


This church will have a great view of Mt. Cyclops when it is completed.
