Monday - a Day with Duane
Duane, native of Kalona, Iowa lives in Jakarta and attended several evenings of our games. We had the privilege to spend all day Monday with him. He took us to his house in the suburbs, to the traditional mall to shop for souvenirs, out to dinner and to the airport for our 11:50 pm flight.
