Daisy Irawan commented on a photo in Day 97 - on the road again, leading with the nose.

The twin buildings (gapura) that you called gates (in East and West Java) are adaptation of Candi Bentar. It was a 'Hindu temple.' In the past, Javanese put offerings onto that temple. Now, only in Javanese, Hindu or Buddhist villages, the tradition is still being done.

Bill, you might be right but the fellow assured me that it was ready to eat.

Jackie, hard for it not to be!!!!! I can't wait to see the end result that will include the front of my bicycle, Affandi and Kartika. It will have a title something like "touring cyclist visits Museum Affandi".

Graham, I've got two pairs of totems - the split sole Volleys. Now, they're nasty.

Re your venerable shoes.
Some expedition cycle tourers carry a totem. You have a pair of toetems.
They aren’t heirlooms. More like air-looms.
