It was my youngest daughter's first birthday on the 21st, Sue and the kids would celebrate at my maid’s mothers village South East of Yogya, and I being a good husband and father would leave them to it, and go off in search of two unvisited confluences in the area.
I organized a car and driver and drove north to Purwodadi leaving the hotel in Yogya at 0700.
From the only map I had of the area, this confluence looked like it would be a piece of cake with the point being very close to a road.
