Fun in the Sun

Today was the most relaxing day I've had in a while. I spent the morning swimming and tanning at the Hyatt Hotel. I got to the hotel around 10:30 and made my way straight to the pool. The hotel had three different pools, and each was connected to the other by water slides. During the afternoon, the girls got a full body massage at a local salon. The massage was perfect. The main difference between getting a massage in Indonesia compared to getting one in Canada is the ambience. In Indonesia, there is usually one large room with many beds, so that everyone gets a massage at the same time. There are no curtains to separate each person. Although it lacked privacy, there was no difference in the method of their massage. In the evening, we went to Malioboro Street, the downtown of Yogya, and rode an Elephant pedal cart.
