Dieng Plateau area spent mushroom compost being carried up to terraces

 So very often have we seen the hard work by the men working those horticultural terraces in Java, Indonesia.

Also the thousands of tons of spent mushroom compost carried up, after having being dumped alongside the main road.

 

Best viewed on YouTube for being able to use the clickable points with written info below.Also shown are the stone breakers at work.We saw them numerous times, on different roads... Such hard work!The terraces yielded tobacco, corn, cabbage, potatoes and so on.In the tropics things can be grown year round.

Oversight of Dieng Plateau area in Indonesia with mushroom growing sheds and doing training

 Just wanted to share with you this short video from our time of living and working in Indonesia in the mushroom business.

Pieter did climb up the mountain very high at one of the locations for giving you this overview.The video can best be viewed on YouTube, so you can read the text below, where I've better explained with clickable points.Yes, that was me speaking in my 7th language of Bahasa Indonesia.

Hat Elastic for Preventing my Shoes from Sliding OFF

 Just a simple piece of hat elastic helped me keeping my shoes from sliding off my heel!

Sure this hat elastic you can find in different colors too!

But I was glad for finding my 'old' Hat Elastic from The Netherlands...

Without measuring, I cut off two pieces and did tie a knot on both ends.

This Hat Elastic is strong enough for holding that nasty sliding heel band in its place!

Wore this with my long Escada silk satin roses dress and it works well with long jeans.

Haha, my biker-feet with the imprints by the sun from where my Ecco sandals fit... 😉

And... my ugly toe is not yet 'normal'. You can read about how that came to be here: NO WAY!!! ←click link

Shoes are also Escada and they come with a matching small, and a larger tote, as well as with a belt. 

I'd rather have some hat elastic 'visible' then tripping or having difficulty walking...

Do you have any shoes that don't stay put?

Often they look better than they wear!
