Walk with Me Around My Neighborhood












My Early Morning Walks

 

Today I decided to take you with me as I walk down to the park from my street. 


Watch the video clips and you will see things you probably wont see in your own neighborhood unless you live in Asia as well.

 

 

 

I will give you the link to my youtube account and you can view them there.  On the right hand side of the page where the videos are listed, click on "SEE ALL" and scroll down to the first one and work your way up to the 15th..most of them are less than 3 minutes long and the last one, #15 you get to meet my maid...lol.

 


This is Tebet Timur, a suburb in South Jakarta.  Timur means east in Indonesian so I live in East Tebet but here they word things back to front....hence Tebet East....lol.

 

I tried really hard not to make the camera move too much but it's difficult so please excuse the quality of the footage.

 

There's also some audio issues that I only noticed after I uploaded the files to my computer.  This is a very amateur attempt as I've never done it before so please bear with me. I should upgrade my video cam too, perhaps next time I go to Singapore.

 

I also had to keep turning the camera off because I wasnt sure how much battery time I had and more importantly youtube restricts uploads to 15 minutes each file for some reason. 


I dont know how to edit/trim or stitch them together to make one whole video so this was the only way I knew how.

 

It means that you have to go through 15 clips but it's up to you....you only watch it  IF you're interested and at your leisure. 

 

Welcome to my neighborhood.

 

Here's the link to my youtube profile page.

Started watching these beginning with the last. This is a great way to show the area and what it's like.

you're not the only one who has watched it starting at the end...lol...guess it's just a good backwards. Glad you enjoyed it and thank you for the visit.

There's a certain lilt to an Aussie accent that is music to American ears!

Loved all your clips, a great mini travelogue into your world. Love your cats too -- how many do you have now? I would also fly away to miss the slaughter of the goats and cows. How devastating. Your house is cozy. Thanks for showing us your neighborhood.

you're welcome Teal, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I've got five indoor cats and seven outdoor ones. The little baby kittens (5 of them) that you heard crying in the background have all died from a very fatal bout of flu. I buried the last one today, it was devastating.

With my computer "dial-up", I can't watch your tour. But I'm sure it was wonderful. Hope all is well.

If you get yourself an up-to-date computer and hi-speed, you will wonder how you endured so long without it.
reply by tealstar on July 2, 2011 9:16 AM ()
it's okay, you're not missing much...lol. All is well in spite of little ups and downs now and again, thank you.
