Just got back from the bemo center and got a big place of nasi goring or fried rice and fried egg for 6000 rupiah. Kupang has some good deals.

The beer at Lavalon is 20,000 for the big bintang which is a little high for Indonesia but cheap for Timor. The huge plus is sitting at the Lavalon bar at night. It is nice and cool and you can see a bunch of fishing boats along the horizon with their lanterns attracting fish.

The stars are out tonight and the waves are washing up on the beach.

I hope that Dili in East Timor gets it together one of these days because there is a huge stretch of beach along the waterfront there with vendors selling barbaqued fish and chicken and corn when the city is at peace. It could be very nice when that happens.
