31 July - 3 August 2009
Medan is Mary's hometown. This is our family's first journey to Medan and few
other towns in North Sumatra.
| Cameras used: Kodak V1073 (16:9 and panoramas) and
Kodak DX6490 (3:2). All originals, downsized only. |
Our journey starts from the new terminal at Cengkareng Int. Airport. It's the
Terminal 3. It has more futuristic design compared to the old two terminals.
Well, actually I prefer the more Indonesian designs of the old ones...

Arrived at Polonia Int. Airport. Had a Mie Pangsit for lunch.

It's hard to find non-pork noodles here.
O well, 'guess we're simply weren't
trying... :) |
This is the beautiful Maria Annai Velangkanni Church, built by an
Indian Pastor.
