Pretending

A lot of things here in Jakarta seems to be make-believe, going to the mall is sorta like going to Disney Land. In one mall life size fake boats are pretending to float around in a big pool, you can also enter a fake lighthouse and pretending to be enjoying a view that isn't there. Or how about ice-skating (it is about 32 degrees here) next to a fountain that 'dances' to the "New York, New York" song. I am not saying all of this is bad, it just very different to Denmark :)

Wow! That sounds like it'd be an interesting place to stay.

This is a beautiful photo!

How interesting ... but the plastic orchid just doesn't have the "zing" of the real thing.
