this island has a totally different vibe to it than sumatra. it has a huge population and it's much more "developed" than sumatra, and it doesn't have the charm that sumatra has in its chaos and its gorgeous landscape :) but java has temples! today i went to borobundur and loved it!! it didn't have the impact of angkor wat or bagan... but it was still really nice to see :) i love these old buddhist temples :) i won't be going to the hindu tempe close by because i realized i'm not in such a temple mood at the moment ;) also, i want to get going to solo and then mount bromo and then i'll leave java and go to.... bali :D can't wait!!
