Dieng Plateau

A couple of weekends ago, some of us from our church here went to Dieng Plateau.  It was about a 5 hour bus ride away, up a mountain.  I would like to say we had a great time . . . well, we did have a good time with friends.  However, it was COLD and WET!  It was about 50 degrees and raining the whole time.  That kind of put a damper on things.  As we were outside the whole day, we were . . . hmmm . . . okay, we were pretty miserable.  I'm sure we would have had a lovely time if it hadn't been raining.  In fact, the temperature was quite nice.  The rain, not so nice.  We did get to see some beautiful temples, smell some stinky sulfur springs, and have fun with friends.

 

 We bought some corn on the side of the road.  It was steamed corn covered in sweetened condensed milk.
I would HIGHLY recommend it.  Truett loved it, too!


The picture on the left shows our true feelings.  The picture on the right is Truett and me smiling for the camera!
 
 The views around our homestay were beautiful.  Outside the front door, we had potato farmers.  Around the other sides of the house, we saw amazing views of rice fields.

It's never too cold to play cards and tickle kids!
