Monas






We took my Mom and Dad to visit Monas, which is a huge structure built to commemorate Indonesia's Independence from the Dutch on 17 Aug. 1945. The structure includes dimensions that relate to the date of their independence which I think is pretty cool. It was really high which of course meant that my palms were sweating incessantly, but the view was excellent. There's a picture of their Declaration of Independence... just a teeny bit shorter than the US'.

  1. I love how short their declarartion of independence is- short and sweet! What more needs to be said? "We are FREE!" I'm glad your family is able to come out and visit. How fun!!

    PS- I love your jean skirt, and I want to make one like it now. Thanks a lot. I have enough projects on my plate. :)
