Indonesia Celebrated their independence on the 17th of August. These are a few ways we celebrated. Josh drove a becak (pedicab) with his friend, we joined our neighborhood in the sehat jalan (healthy walk), and we went with some friends to a small amusment park. The family sitting next to Josh are our neighbors. They're so hospitable and helpful to us! We thank God for their generosity. The picture of the alligator and shark represent the fight between water and land... Surabaya is actually both words (the words for shark and crocodile) mixed together.
