Jakarta, Indonesia 

On the return leg from Bali, we stayed with our distant relatives in Jakarta.

We were taken for another beach stay for a 2-day break, we visited the Tangkubanparahu Volcano - which was north-west of Jakarta and the Island of Java.

We also visited a Hawker-stall where we ate the classic "Surabi" Javanese Pancakes and then we taken to the Bandar Jakarta Restaurant - on the Ancol Bay.

Tangkubanparahu Volcano, Java
Tangkubanparahu (also known as Tangkuban Perahu) is an active strato-volcano within the Sunda Caldera, west of the Island of Java. The volcano's low profile is the subject of legends referring to the mountain of the "upturned boat" - and has become a tourist hot-spot (no pun intended)!
