I heart NIKE

Ok so by the end of July things started to get a LITTLE better :) The embassy put on a tour to NIKE. I was excited to get out of Jakarta and head to Tangerang for the day.

I jumped on a bus with a lot of randoms from the Embassy and we traveled the 2 hours to Tangerang.  It was nice to see open land, fields, and the SKY!


The NIKE manufacturer hired a professional photographer to take pics of the event which was nice and a little AWKWARD.....................you will see.

Yep that's me eating.

Yep, that's me eating more

We began the visit with some traditional Indonesian food. It was pretty good and I didn't even get sick! Then they had a presentation about the factory and the manufacturer.

Then the TOUR began! Yep that's me

Yep that's me listening to the vice president telling me how shoes are made.

Yep that's me. Holding the completed product

Yep that's me. Talking to the Pres and Vice Pres about my future with NIKE

That's the crowd. US embassy and NIKE representatives.

All in all it was a GREAT visit. I will NEVER look at shoes the same way. I would like to give a shout out to NIKE for stepping it up. That was by far the BEST factory I have been to. The only weird thing was the photographer......
