Had the most amazing time at Jakarta, not because of what we did (waited for a long long time to play a bit of music), but because of the quality of conversations with certain people. I think it is in the moments of inactivity, when there is nothing to do and nothing to be done and nowhere to go, when you really get down to the act of knowing people you might have seen for many years. And in one night talk your way into feeling like you've known the person for years.
Which perhaps is why friends made in prison might have such an impact on an ex convict's life outside.
