Week 13 photos - 1

Hello all: I have some wonderful pictures this week (though Lala's baptism will be hard to beat! Let's start with...

 
These beautiful, friendly young faces. I was at a little local Mom & Pop (literally) store. Part of their business is making photo copies. While I was waiting, they started asking questions in English (they wanted to practice speaking English) and they were a wonder .. and all smiles and giggles!
 

 This was the batik Christmas tree in the lobby of the Novotel (the district uses their grand ballroom for their conferences).

And this was the statuary of a traditional Javanese dancer beside the "tree." (Remember the celebration at the water project.)
