Final Preparations for Indonesia 3 and my work assignement

Two days to go and I think I'm all packed.  At least I got everything in one checked bag, one carry on bag, and a laptop backpack.  I even found room to take my mask, fins, snorkel, and booties for snorkeling, or if possible, scuba diving.  I will be assigned to the Transportation Agency of the City of Makassar working in two specific area's.  1) An Organizational Assessment and 2) Budget and Planning for the Agency.  I fly on March 8th and will get into Jakarta to meet the rest of our awesome IBM team on March 9th.  We will have a day and half to finally meet everyone in person and get some pre-work done and final briefings before flying to Makassar on March 11th. #ibmcsc
