We had a pretty relaxing morning. The kids let us sleep in til about 8am. Around 11 am, we dropped the girls off for a birthday party. Then we headed to Gandaria City mall to have lunch at a place called May Star. My friend said they had really good and reasonably priced dim sum. I had been wanting to check it out. After lunch we met up with the birthday party at Lollipops, a play place inside Gandaria City mall. The kids played all afternoon. We stayed longer than I had anticipated. Afterwards we went and looked around a shop called Toys Kingdom. It was a huge toy store. The kids each got to pick out a small toy. I was tempted to buy myself a Monchichi…these cute little monkey looking stuffed dolls. I had one when I was little and I just loved it. Sadly I lost it at some point so seeing the dolls just brought back lots of memories. They were crazy expensive though so I decided against getting one. The kids were pretty happy with their toys. Joseph picked out some small legos and Audrey and Katelyn each picked out a My Little Pony. We thought we were making good time getting back to the apartment until we were told that the through road was closed and we had to take a detour. All in all, we still made it back in a decent amount of time. You never know what the traffic will be like in Jakarta. The kids were bushed and fell asleep as soon as we put them down around 8pm…too much fun!

We saw Chinese New Year decorations at the mall.

You never know what you might see in Jakarta. On the way home we saw a bunch of young guys packed in an old Kijang. There were probably more people riding on the outside of the car than on the inside…lol. I think they were heading to the horrible heavy metal concert that is playing at the stadium.
