Day # 59
  Bandur Lumpung to Jakarta - Sumatar to Java      
 
 We jumped on the bus/ferry service today which would take us all the way into Jakarta. After a great day of talking and reflection of the past two months, Dylan and I were looking forward to a dose of Singapore and keen to get onto Java and complete our adventure. We found a local hostel in a popular backpacker area in Jakarta recommended by our new friend Adrian.

After dumping the bikes and bags we headed out for dinner which soon turned into a great night out with some traveling Canadian girls we had met. It was Indonesia Independence day and all of Indonesia was celebrating. It was as if they knew we were coming and had thrown a massive party for us. We drank into the wee hours of the morning enjoying the festive night.
