Itinerary

Delaney says that I've got about 8 flights to catch for my trip. For this morning's news, she's going to talk to her classmates about my trip, so this morning at breakfast we were poring over a couple of Google maps and plotting the flights. Here's my itinerary:

25 Sept: Canberra-Sydney-Jakarta, departing 11.55am and arriving 6.35pm. 2 flights.

27 Sept: Jakarta-Solo, then catching a taxi to Salatiga. 1 flight.

7 Nov: Salatiga-Solo, bus or taxi.

11 Nov: Solo-Jakarta-Medan-Banda Aceh, arriving 3.45pm. 2 flights.

12 Nov: Banda Aceh-Lhokseumawe, car.

15 Nov: Lhokseumawe-Banda Aceh.

17 Nov: Banda Aceh-Jakarta, arriving 2.10pm. 1 flight.

23 Nov: Jakarta-Sydney-Canberra, departing 8.45pm, arriving in Canberra 24 Nov, 10.30am. 2 flights.

The second half of the trip is ANU-related work, where I'll be visiting lecturers in the Islamic education system who have studied in Australia via an Australian-Indonesian government program. In Solo I'll be visiting Ismail, who works at STAIN (State Islamic College), and in Banda Aceh I'll be visiting Iskandar, who works at Universitas Malikussaleh. In Jakarta I'll be visiting Greta, who a few years ago did an internship at Academic Skills and Learning Centre, ANU. She works at Bina Nusantara University (BINUS).
