 Run for your life~! Oct 25, 2009
Jakarta RACE (Race Against Cancer Everyone) is an annual events sponsored by Four Seasons hotel for a charity run to support the cancer organization.
The pre-registration is done via online or come to the hotel directly, where we will get a t-shirt for the run. The D-day, the meeting point wa salready full with 6,000 people. And the run started sharply at 7, which amazed me:). The run took place in Jakarta main road - Sudirman - towards the south, which they have closed for this occasion. It felt great to be able to run freely in the middle of the street in Jakarta! Back to the meeting point - there was a bag of snack and several goodies stand - as well as free service to check blood pressure, cholesterol, etc. As well as an entertainment stage with some doorprizes given. Adult fee to join the run was 80k Rp (8 USD). http://www.jakartarace.org/  Part of the Jakarta 2009 till.....(Indonesia) travel blog

This weekend was mainly devoted to Liz. It was one of her last weekends in Indonesia, and her first full weekend.

We then did our own tour of the place.
