East Java bound

Until Merapi calms down, I'm being sent to teach at a fellow ETA's Islamic high school in the small East Java city of Gresik. I fly out of Jakarta Friday afternoon bound for Surabaya, all the way across Java. Gresik's about 40 minutes outside Surabaya, and a welcoming committee from the new school is meeting me at the airport. It looks like Internet service may be a little less regular than in Magelang so I may be longer between posts. Let's see.

English Dept. All-Stars at the airport, and me without a beard.
