Java Days -- Part IV

Ninth-century Hindu temple near Prambanan.

Borobudur, ninth-century Mahayana Buddhist Monument. I've wanted to come here for a long time.

I am back in Alaska. It was -40 degrees Farenheit in Fairbanks last night. I hear it was -65 degrees up north (yow!), where I will be going in a couple of days. Although I am excited about spending another winter in Alaska's Arctic, I already miss Japan and Indonesia. Here are more pictures from Java (Lombok pictures are below). Photos from Japan will be up soon. I hope you're staying warm, wherever you are :)
