News waves from Jakarta
My dear Mimi & Jhum,
In my earlier mail, I should also have mentioned that the weather here is very good despite hardly any rain so far. Maximum temperature has remained below 35. Sudipto has almost a namesake as driver-Suripto; and their cook is called yati (not ‘yeti’), a sober and very well behaved middle-aged woman; they and three others are very good. Moni has picked up local language very well. The local language is written only in the roman script, but no other language is understood by most of the people.
Yesterday we had been to another tourist attraction called-‘Gelanggang Samudra Jaya Ancol’. Obviously this big complex is at the seaside-and the seaside is well laid out and well maintained, very neat and clean compared to any such area around Mumbai or Chennai or any other place in our country. I could not find out meaning of the remainder of the name.
So let me tell you that in this place there are four separate enclosures one each for variety animal show, birds and orangutan show, sea lion show and dolphin show. Children will enjoy such circus more; but I also enjoyed despite language barrier because they are well managed. Moreover for the first time I have seen sea lion and dolphin shows. There is also a fairly large aquarium with a variety of mostly sea fishes; and there is also a tunnel here to go through with large shirks/sting rays etc over and around you as I saw at ‘San Tosa Singapore.
We are fine; I hope all’s well at your end. Please give my respect and love and affection to all as due.
Yours,
BABA
