“Heavy traffic everywhere in Jakarta, particularly in the port and downtown area. Travel time is unpredictable. Our guide managed the time well. There was no time for lunch in the restaurant. We brought some food and ate in the car during the traffic jam. It was rainy season in December and we could not visit the old Harbor because it was flooded.”
