The Saturday before school started a group of about 15 of our staff took the evening to get away. We drove out of the city about an hour, up the volcano that we live at the base of, to some natural hot springs. It was a gorgeous night to make the drive as we left before the sun set and got there after it was dark. It only costs about $2.00 to get into the hot springs, including a free drink, and you could stay for as long as you wanted. We soaked for a while... it felt so nice to relax after a busy week of getting ready for school to start. Then on the trip home we stopped at a road side stand selling delicious roasted corn. We had the choice of regular, spicy, garlic, or sweet corn. It made their day to have a group of 15 come through their little stand. And it was good!
On the road in Bandung: the drive there in a taxi.
Enjoying the hot springs!
Corn on the side of the road: this was one of many stands we saw on the drive home.
Not sure if you could call that a barbeque, but the corn was delicious.
Inside the stand where we could sit and eat.

Maybe its the lighting or something, but that hotspring water looks pretty shady. And the girl in the front right hand corner looks like she's carrying a beer! :0
Anyways, I just wanted to let you know that I've been reading your blog, and keeping up. glad to hear (read) that you're doing well. You don't look too sick in any of your photos, so I'm guessing you managed to miss out on the whole foreign bug curse :)
