Christmas and into the New Year

441 days ago
Well, I was thinking of giving up of the old blog, but then again I also feel that these can be nice memories later.

Christmas here was celebrated with the more satanic crew in Makassar, where we had a nice potluck and with a side order or beer (always). The night was fun and I really enjoyed seeing some old friends again, and meeting some new people.

We have just come back from Bira, where not much new was done. I did get to show Kiky the Caves in Ara, which are a really cool place to go. We brough a few candles and then I swam to all the ends and placed the candles here and there, lighting up the cave with a warm light.

New Years was once again another beach shindig... really nice and chilled and completely throws one out of the loop as to when to sleep and wake up! I am still recovering.

This vacation has taught me a lot about human character and desperation though. Kiky's father passed away not long ago and the inheritance has now caused a fair bit of turmoil between the three siblings. It is really sad because as soon as money gets involved you see people change their alleigences, lie to their own family, and worse! Ah well, I am hoping that this can all be solved and then Kiky won't have to deal with it anymore and continue to get along fine with her brother's without the inheritance being a problem.
