And the oldies in motion, too.



It was just a warming up. They could have danced all night long, if you had not stopped them moving!

Let them singing



From left to right: Mas Kardjo, Kak Sabri, Kak Burhan, Pipip, Mariam, Mariah, Marlian dan Kak Ruslian all in a choir sang "Sapu Tangan Bapuncu Ampat" and "Paris Barantai".

Wedding Procession of Nia and Yandi


Actually, our visit to Kapuas is to celebrate the wedding party of our beloved nephew /niece Nia and Yandi who already declared their "Akad" in July 9, 2006, at Central Bank of Indonesia Mosque in Jakarta .

All of the family members gathered in Jakarta. They came from Pekan Baru, Kota Baru, Bandung, Depok, Chicago (IL, USA), and other cities. A short celebration also made in Kintamani Apartment, in South Jakarta, right after the "Akad".

Everyone enjoy the nice party held in the pool. Everybody sang and danced till late afternoon.

Grandpa was there too!


Here are other pics, shows grandpa was there too. But no more grandma around. What a sad journey for him. Flying alone to the Borneo island for the first time.

Unpatient Haniyfa


Here are my youngest daughter Haniyfa Azalea Satriya. Unpatient. Kept asking :"Pa..kapan naik pesawatnya? [Dad..when will we be boarding the aircraft?]" She kept asking, while I was taking care other stuffs. But it's okay.

It starts from here!


Our trip to Kuala Kapuas, the capitol of Kapuas Regency in Central Kalimantan, starts from Soekarno-Hatta airport. My family, me, my wife -Mariah, my children - Eiko, Putty, and Haniy, were happy to fly to Kalimantan. It would be our first visit after my mom in law passed away on Nov 2004. Haniy was very unpatient to get on board. She kept asking when her plane coming. Hm..I was very happy too, since my father joined us this time. It would be his first experience to visit Kalimantan. After all, he deserve a break after my mohter passed away on a heart attack on a shocking month of May 2005.

Here are some pics.
