Friday AUA took us on a little field trip to a village to try our hands at a few traditional Indonesian activities. The whole time we said it felt very much like summer camp, doing crafts all morning. We started with making batik, and got a turn trying to make traditional ceramics, but the best part of the trip was getting a chance to plant rice!
Me watching her use the pottery wheel... things went downhill anytime I was given a chance to try.

Plowing a rice paddy.
Planting rice.
It was super fun. And super muddy. Overall a great day.
