			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Finally I&#8217;m arrived at Jakarta. Gosh, quite a journey. It took me a about 14 hours to get to my home. I&#8217;m already arrived at my combo dock to took a boat at 6.30am local time (GMT+9), but the boat just left site at 8am. After a little seasickness It took me  2 hours to get to Babo (small airport) to took a chartered flight and my scheduled departure was 10am, but I just left off at 12.30. It took another 2 hours to get from Babo to Sorong (small town which got commercial airliners).</p>
<p><span id="more-26"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The plane was delayed because the day before the plane is broken or something. The chartered flight using a small propeller plane, max capacity only about 15 persons, and we need to wear earplugs during the flight. The engine noise is very noisy. I didn&#8217;t wait long in Sorong, only wait for like 20 min then I took off with commercial airline, transit in Makassar, then arrived at Jakarta at 5.10 pm (GMT+7). There&#8217;s some funny story when I&#8217;m in there. I was buying <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koteka" target="_blank">Koteka</a> (for those of you don&#8217;t know what koteka is, just click on the link), when when I was in the security scanner gate, the security asks me &#8220;Hey, what&#8217;s in the bag?&#8221; then I said, &#8220;It&#8217;s koteka&#8221;, then the security said, &#8220;Koteka isn&#8217;t allowed to enter the airport&#8221; I was like &#8220;Why?&#8221; Then they said &#8220;It&#8217;s allowed only when you wearing it&#8221; then they laugh. Oh crap, the security made the joke on me hehehe.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In Jakarta, I&#8217;m greeted with afternoon rush hour traffic. Most of the drivers drive like an idiot, using emergency lane to overtake in the tollway, changing lanes/turning without signals, driving without lights at night, u-turning when u-turn isn&#8217;t allowed, and the list goes on. WTF. It took me 2 hours to get my home from the airport. If there is no/little traffic, it only took 20 minutes.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Enough the rants about traffic, back at home finally I met my family, and I met new member of my family for the first time. My nephew! He is so cute, and makes me wondering when I&#8217;ll get one? *sigh. One more thing, I was quite surprised when I saw my cat, she&#8217;s so BIG and FAT! and she&#8217;s still remembers me. She&#8217;s usually shy or avoid a stranger.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Then first morning in Jakarta, I&#8217;m already awake at 5am. Usually at the same time I already at the office back in Papua. My plan today, I&#8217;m planning to get my car checked. It&#8217;s been almost 6 month my car just sitting there in the garage, hopefully it will be OK.</p>
