Bush crosses time zones, eats many meals
Ap, Bogor
Who eats two dinners in a day? President Bush for one, especially when he's crossing time zones. Bush started Monday in Ho Chi Minh City, formerly known as Saigon, in southern Vietnam, then hopped over to Indonesia for talks with President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, an ally in the war on terror. The roughly six-hour visit ended with a state dinner in Bush's honor at Bogor Palace, the presidential mansion just south of the capital of Jakarta. The media were not allowed in. Immediately afterward, Bush and his wife, Laura, boarded Air Force One for the 12-hour flight to Hawaii, their next stop, during which they will lose half a day.
