here is what they call ABC. it's a dessert. what it is, it's basically ice, sugar flavoured ice mixed with black beans, corn, some kind of jellycubes and some green jelly things. we saw some people eat it when we were at this restaurant and we decided to order one for ourselves, cause it looked so random. the taste is really good though! although ice cream dessert with beans and corn might come off a little weird. last time we went to the restaurant steve and i shared one again. yum yum!






here is from today. me and this german guy named sandro (he might spell it with a z, i'm not sure) went to a beach, what was the name of the town... i think it was papar. it took us like 30 min to get there by bus. i fell asleep. soo tired. sandro was like, "you missed all this cool stuff! the mangrove forest, the contrasts between the rich and the poor!"
he's funny. he has been planing for borneo for the last year and a half. so now he's all excited to be here and experience it. he also thought i looked funny when i slept. my mouth all wide opened. haha! you gotta give a piece of yourself sometimes, make people laugh =D





the beach was nice. some local people there. they all look at us and wave. so nice. one was like: can i have a pic of you?
that has happened quite a few times. that people wanna have pics of us, just like that. =) local people here are very friendly. they say hi and they're very helpful. although not all of them speak good english, they do their best to help you out.





we wanted to cross this little lake or whatever it was. but i can't get my feet wet in dirty water cause of my new tats. so we just had to look at the forest on the other side, and wonder what was in it. lots of birds that's for sure. making noise.






a little fishing village, or so we thought it might be. there was no one there and it didn't look like actual houses. more like fishing sheds.




i found a cat friend there. cats are everywhere, and so are dogs. they're pretty much all skinny, unless they're pregnant. which is the case way to often. you see them make babies everywhere... someone needs to start a clinic here and spay them. there are way to many of them poor animals...

this cat was supersnuggly. it came up to me and wanted to be pet. and then it layed down next to me and snuggled. so cute! i gave me energy too, great energy. i think i was really low on animal love energy. i feel so much happier today after this little snuggle =)




little fishing shed



a mosque. they're a little everywhere. sometimes you hear a man pray in there. they have speakers on the outside so the whole town can hear the prayers. a little scary i think. but i guess i'm just not used to this culture
