One week after the end of the fasting month, people on this island celebrate another holiday. Some people choose to fast for 6 more days after the breaking of the fast to earn more good points so after this week of extra fasting they make ketupat (rice that is compacted in woven leaves as it is cooked so that the individual grains disappear) and take it to the beach for a pick-nick. We had ketupat for breakfast with friends but then stayed home to avoid the traffic.
