Tickets in Hand... Motorcycle Skills

Yesterday I went online and purchased plane tickets to Indonesia. I caught myself in a moment of hesitation when it came time to click my mouse button and officially buy the one-way ticket. Ideas are glamorous to the mind, but reality is often more sobering to the heart. But adrenaline-pumping exciting too. I've also been practicing my motorcycling skills. After squeaking by on the written test, I'll be attempting the driving skills test next week. Practicing at first made me hesitant and uptight, but after driving a second time I'm hooked. I love the freedom and excitement of just two wheels on the pavement and no arm-rests or door handles. From my understanding, 70% of the vehicles on the road in Indonesia are motorcycles. Who needs a truck when you can pile stuff on like this guy? Hopefully that won't be a requirement on my skills test.
