I couldn’t resist a second post for today going through my photos from last Monday’s Yummy Mummy Playgroup in Senayan. The theme chosen for the day was ‘animals’, and can I tell you it was tricky trying to find an appropriate costume in Jakarta to fit Samudra..

Public Holiday Fun in Jakarta
Jakarta has so many public holidays that it’s difficult to keep up with them, especially when you don’t travel to work in an office so every day feels sort of like a holiday, even if you are working super long hours, because you have a sense of delicious freedom not having to leave the house.

Lestari Sayang Anak’s 5th Anniversary
This is another incredibly late post, but I wanted to share some pictures from the anniversary of Lestari Sayang Anak in Cipete.
