Today (August 13) we were going on a walk to watch the sun set. We were going to walk on the road, but Daddy asked Pak Lely (Mr. Lay-lee) if we could walk in the sawah (rice field.) Pak Lely said:” Boleh! Silahkan! Tapi itu akan sulit dan Anda mungkin akan jatuh.” Which means: “You may! Please! But it will be hard and ya’ll will probably fall.” SO we walked in the sawah. Which all the kids were exited! We all loved to walk in the sawah. All the kids did anyway. But then we had to get out because Daddy wanted to go the other way. On the road. :) When we passed one family’s house, their chickens were in the tree!!

We (the kids) asked if we could walk all the way home in the sawah, but Daddy said no because there were probably snakes cuz it hasn’t been bothered in a long time. But we got back in the sawah earlier than we got out. Then when we got back, Pak Lely’s son, Rizal asked Daddy: “Jalan-jalan di sawah?” Which means: “Walking in the sawah?”
