I have been dreaming of taking the exact trip you took.

Did you arrange it through a travel agency?

I assume it's difficult to arrange all this on one's own; trains etc?

So you need summer and "winter" clothes?

As to Jakarta my cousin told me to avoid it. I believe one can fly from Singapore direct to Yojakarta.

Thank you for a wonderful report.

Except the train from Jogja to Surabaya and the tour to Bromo, which I booked through Mau Ke Mana, I arranged everything myself. Bring a warm sweater and some jeans and you'll be fine on Mount Bromo.

What camera and settings were you using

Great photos. Just wondered what setting you were using as they are really clear and good quality!

Awesome photos.

I visited Borobodur in October 2010, during the Mt Merapi eruption. I was very lucky as we flew from DPS to JOG - Merapi was erupting on the starboard side of the aircraft, (JOG had been closed a day or two before), and while there was lots of Ash around, Borobodur was being cleaned - but i still got to see all there was to see. Also Prambanan which is equaly stunning.

Lombok is like Bali was before the tourists discovered what a great place it is to visit.

JOG is also accessible from KUL too on Air Asia, as well as from Singapore, Johor Bahru, Medan, Jakarta and DPS for Bali.
