Back where we started!

Back in Germany. It is a bit cold here... Around 30°C colder. But at least Germany greets us with a very nice winter morning. Beautiful view from the train.

The last piece of #durian here. Looks a bit weird, when arranged like that on a plate. I prefer them fresh from the fruit!

Anyway, on the way to the airport now. Feeling sad to leave all this behind.

Oh, apparently we also get lunch! And it's tasty! Vegetarian options: none. Oh, well, I didn't expect any ^^

Off to Jakarta! Our flight is the day after tomorrow :/

But in the meantime, we decided to spoil ourselves with luxury train tickets.

The seats are comfy, fully automated and recline very far. We have a TV in each seat and enough legroom to really stretch my legs. I mean really stretch! Fancyshmancy!

Phew, the pure espresso was a bit too sour for me...

The view was nice! You could have seen Mt Merapi, if the arriving rain clouds hadn't hidden it...

Oh, and the temple is built by volcanic stones, so the volcanoes around are actually and important part of it. Although also likely the reason why it was lost.
