On my way...

So I'm hopping on a flight to Australia tonight and happily so. With all that crazy rainy weather in Jakarta and an even crazier macet on a Friday evening makes it all the more reason to leave a stressful Jakarta a little bit easier.

I did manage to find a taxi after half an hour of walking around in the rain to the nearest taxi stand. And after hesitating for a second to get into a beat up Taxiku, I happily climbed in after being in the wet and flooding roads. I told the driver that there is a 10k rupiah tip for him if he could get me to the airport as fast as he can and after not being able to get into the tol entrance I was pretty sure we wouldn't go over 20km an hour. I was wrong. We were in the airport in 35 minutes on a Friday night macet and in the rain. I think that was the best time yet by a taxi.
