Inside a Train Station

>> Oct 10, 2011

Jakarta Kota station is located in the old city center of Jakarta (capital city of Indonesia). In 1993, this station was selected as a historical and cultural landmark.Built around 1870, renovated in 1926 and re-opened on August 19, 1926. The Dutch Governor General, A.C.D de Graeff launched formally on October 8, 1929. We use to call it BEOS station (an abbreviation from the Bataviasche Ooster Spoorweg Maatschapij or the Batavian Eastern Railway Company). The station design is a combination of Western Art Deco and local architecture styles. (data source:Wikipedia).

There are blue things inside the train station, but I’m not sure what it is.

My husband and I will travel again to Surabaya (East Java, Indonesia) next Wednesday, visiting my father there. It’s already low season, I can get low fare airflight tickets.

How to Secure Your Home While Away on Holidays

It is important when you are away on holidays that you put some steps into place to keep your home safe and secure. You need to be organised and sort out a few things before you go away. Installing security doors will keep your home secure as well as having screens on your windows. Don't forget to stop all the services during the time you are away, such as having the mail stopped and letting the commercial cleaning company that you won't be needing your home cleaned for a period of time.

Security doors and screens

A security door will not only make it harder for people to break into your home it will give you the flexibility of being able to keep your front door open but the security screen locked, which is great in summer because you can leave the doors open to let any cool breeze through. Intruders are also just as likely to break in through your windows so have security screens fitted on your windows. You will still be able to open your windows and see out of them.

Stop your mail

To save asking the neighbours to collect your mail while you are away have your mail stopped at the post office. All your mail will be sitting waiting for you at your local post office when you get home and it won't make it obvious that nobody is home. This service is known as the USPS  mail hold


Security alarm

Security alarms are designed to go off if they sense any movement in your house. It will alert the neighbours and the noise will disrupt the intruder, hopefully stopping them from taking any of your belongings and giving them no time to do any damage to your home. The security company knows when your alarm goes off and once they are alerted they will send round the police to investigate.

Neighbours

Your neighbours can collect your mail for you, mow your lawn to keep the grass looking tidy if you are going to be away for a while and can park one of their cars in your driveway so it looks like somebody is home.

Timers for your lights

Have timers set on your lights so that they turn on at a certain time in the evening and switch off around ten o'clock, or whatever you usual bed time is. This will make it look like someone is home.

Keep your yard tidy

If you are going away for a long while, such as on an overseas trip, then the front of your home can get really untidy, a dead give away that nobody is home. It might pay to hire a gardening service to come in and mow the lawn for you while you are away and do a bit of weeding. Either get the neighbours to clear the junk mail out of your letterbox or put a 'No Junk Mail' sticker on it so that it doesn't get cluttered with rubbish.

Family Friendly Cars for Moms

The mother is often the unsung hero of a family. Transporting kids to school, sports practices and other extracurricular activities is a job all its own that requires excellent time management skills and expert driving techniques. Fortunately, the job of being a mom can be made much easier by way of an automobile that is designed to increase the ease by which they haul their precious cargo through a busy and sometimes dangerous city. Here are three automobiles that can make a mom's day-to-day life not only easier, but thoroughly enjoyable. 2011 Kia Sorrento
The era has arrived where crossover vehicles are designed to be large and roomy, and a handful of models are being built exclusively for road driving. The Kia Sorrento is the best of that bunch, offering a large third row seat that compliments an already roomy cabin. Child seats can easily be snapped and buckled in, taking the stress out of an often tedious process. Bluetooth connectivity allows for hands-free correspondence, something that is essential to moms that are getting information while on the go.

2010 Chrysler Town & Country
Any list of automobiles that are best for moms should include a minivan, and the Chrysler Town & Country is a worthy entry on this list. With a sleek and regal look that features a horizontal front grill, moms will bring a touch of class to any environment. The Town & Country is capable of handling steep climbs with the ease of a powerful SUV while creating an atmosphere that is reminiscent of a comfortable family room. Two bucket seats placed in the middle row pivot to face the back row, and a tabletop can easily be placed on a bar that is attached tot he floor, creating a large and flat surface around which several kids can do puzzles, play games or have a meal.

2011 Dodge Durango
The Dodge Durango has long been a Dodge bestseller, most likely as a result of the fact that it blends raw American power with the comforts of modern innovation. Although a Durango might not typically be considered a mom car, the truth is that it has plenty of room for youngsters of all ages, and has a very impressive track record in North America. The Durango is surprisingly easy to maneuver given its large size and substantial weight, making it the perfect full-sized automobile for a mom.
