Before leaving, I left Tanwir and his family 500,000 Rp ($50) as a gift for the family, since I didn’t have time to take them shopping. I consider it my Christmas present to my Muslim friends in Banda Aceh. (=

On the way to the airport, we stopped by the Sampoerna Foundation training seminar (where Tanwir had to get back to work). The seminar involved training Aceh high-school teachers how to use a computer. They flew a Microsoft Corp. trainer in from Jakarta to teach basic computer skills to school teachers here.

They were happy to see an American drop in & say hello (= ha ha.
My flight home to Jakarta was scheduled to leave at 6pm.
