So you want to know about the Bintang smell? One day I should do a post about the importance of all the letters in the alphabet. Every once in a while here (actually, more often than not in fact), you see something here that just makes you smile. Like the clothing shop that had a sign hung up out front (for what seemed like months) Buy one Get one FREE! T-shits. What actually amazes me most though - is that they just leave it like that.
So the 'Bintang smell', was just one of a couple of humorous things that happened to be on the menu yesterday at our Fortnight Lunch. A couple notes to get you up to speed on this - Bintang is a local beer, and 28,000Rp (rupiah) works out to about $2.75US. The smell part - I think maybe this is a spelling error or maybe it was switched out for what they intended to be small. Surely, they don't mean you only get to smell it. Least I hope not. (?)
By the way - Bintang beer (bintang in bahasa means 'star') is considered by most as the lowest of low on the beer quality scale - and can't imagine anyone would ever want to smell it.
We had a great lunch yesterday. Always nice to go and check out new spots. And always nice to hang out with those girls too. Gotta like that.
Oh yeah, Girl's night out - that was pretty good too!
TODAY: As much as I'd like today to be a rest day - I still have that big, big project to do. And I better get going on that.
Alrighty then ....... let's go.
Good to Go!
