My Birthday Present from Katrinka

Thanks Katrinka for this - three days and two nights at Sawah Indah ("beautiful rice paddies") in Sidemen. [Paddy from padi is also (like sawah) Indonesian for rice field. From the Malay which Indonesian is based on.]

Nice birthday present. Big 70. Feel better than when I was 60 or 50 or 40 and so forth. That's also thanks to Katrinka.
