This
Saturday morning a friend and I went to Punti Kayu – a zoo with a park/forest
attached to it – to get away from the rustle and bustle of central Palembang.
The zoo is supposed to be horrible in terms of animal (mis-)treatment, so I’m
glad we didn’t go there (and further facilitate the abuse by paying the
entrance fee).
However,
the park/forest was really nice, mostly because it was so quiet and peaceful –
qualities a lot of places in Palembang lack. We chose to sit on one of the elevated
wooden plateaus that were spread out throughout the woods and then we unpacked,
unwrapped and opened the food we got
beforehand.I'm telling you, dearest readers, Indonesian food is an adventure on its own, but more on that later.
Good food,
wonderful surroundings and, above all, great company make for a a wonderful way to spend an early Saturday morning – any early
morning in fact! But then our luck turned around when some 20 unexpected visitors came and caused a ruckus! See
for yourself…
Talk soon,
lovely people!
