Ok well this morning I kinda had a meltdown! We spent all day yesterday on bus's n trains ( trains were good!) but so we got to Yogyakarta at 9 pm and tried to find a backpackers, it was awful , we tried about 4 and they were all full, then we went to another one that was like the one out of the movie The Beach" dirty and cockroachy literally on our wall! Then it started pouring outside and so we said stuff it and booked in with our new Norwegian friends Yorgen and Guli.
I am a bit sick in the stomach from some random thing I ate, but I can handle that, but the toilet flush didn't work, I'll let u fill in the gaps, but we had to fill bucket etc... Bec is also not fewling too crash hot, :( So We were feeling a bit homesick this morning but the awesome thing is that it passed because we have each other and prayed about it. It's funny how when your comfort levels are really challenged you realize how reliant you become in your cushy life style. It was a big wake up call. We now have found a nice cheap $14 a night hotel with a pool and waterfall into the pool. It dosnt have air con so we will see how that goes, and no hot water but it's soo hot here you don't really need it, but the main thing is that we have found a clean safe peacefully place to crash for the next 4 days :)
1 big thing we have learnt is to try to avoid getting to your destination in the dark, we have done it twice now and it always makes the place look more dodgy!
Off to Borrie badur tomorrow!
A rough night !
