Well, the heat is really slowing me down now. I was at Prambanan today, one of the great ruins here in Java, but I found that I could't even focus on what I was seeing because the heat was so intense. About 3pm when the sun began to go down things got better and I could function. I think I'll have to try to focus on early morning and late day activity.
I've been eating big over the past couple of days, too. I find that I just get so busy that I only eat an early breakfast and late dinner, but that just doesn't cut it after a few weeks.
Anyhow, I'm going to climb Merapi tonight which should be a break from the heat. We begin climbing at 1am. I have to go on a guided trip for this one as it's a biggie and still pretty active. I should be pretty tired out come tomorrow morning!
Forgot to mention my first hotel room here in Java. I was very tired from travel all day from Bali so I decided to stop short of my actual destination for the night. I had to take this crazy room with only a partial bathroom. It had a hole i the floor the size of a donut hole. Even if I had a stick, I wouldn't be able to poke any poo down it. So, I just peed against the wall and let it run down there, but used a squat toilet they had down the hall. Fun and adventure.
