I arrived in Amsterdam for the first leg of my vacation. Here are some photos I snapped to day walking around:
I'm going to spend a few days here before I go an to California to visit family.
It's a bit colder here than I expected for May but it is tolerable. It's just not weather that you want spend at a sidewalk table in a Restaurant. I'm happy with my hotel room. I'm overlooking a canal and there is some afternoon sun streaming in my window. I enjoy just watching the people go by- in boats, cars, on foot and bicycle.

I'm updating this blog!

I've decided to update this blog to reflect my current situation. I live in Jakarta, Indonesia as of December 9, 2008, when I got an offer to work here. I have enjoyed living here in spite of traffic jams and terrorists. Yes, I was here when terrorists bombed the Marriott and Sheraton hotels. But there haven't been any incidents for quite a while now thank God.
