A Local Gas Station

Motor bikes rule the streets of Yogyakarta, as they are everywhere.  At the pump it costs about 12,000 RP to fill up my Honda Vario's tank.

  5. Ohhh, just move the decimal 4 places to the left to get dollars. And maybe, just maybe I'll think of the Google calculator thing next time. That sea-foam green microbus isn't nearly as cool as our old BLUE one!! That took the prize for unsafe vehicles - hands down!
