Mid-week outing

Today was a public holiday, so we got up early and had a quick swim in the morning sun, and then set off for a trip around northern Jakarta. First stop was Sunda Kelapa, where the world's only remaining commercial sailing fleet docks to load and unload goods from across the region. I saw some really big boats there!
Next we went to see the old Dutch fort, which used to protect the port and city in old times.

I played on the cannons, and saw a really big anchor.

Next we went shopping at Pasar Baroe. While the name means "new market" it's actually a very old market used since Dutch times. We bought some shoes, and I saw a wonderful toy bird.

Finally, at sunset, we went to Taman Menteng. I brought my bike, and rode around for ages.

I wonder what we'll get up to next weekend!
