Jakarta and Bandung.

its about time, i blogged about this. (:

First day, 14122009

arrive at the airport. We spend like an hour waiting for Amanda's luggage to come. I was so scared, that it went missing HAHA. Then we met the driver and our tour guide, Hany. She's nice. and OMG, that airport seriously needs air-conditioning. After that, we went to Ancol to have dinner and we met up with some of Daddy's friends. Ancol is something like Sunway Lagoon. Suddenly, during the dinner, there were fireworks. Then, BAM. There goes the electricity. So basically we're beside the ocean/lake/river, eating with no electricity or light. Except this little candle -.- But it was all good, after a while, so we headed back to the hotel to get some rest.

Second day, 15122009

We had to wake up so early, ishh. haha. First up, we visited Jakarta's national museum and suprisingly, I liked it. I thought it would be boring and stuff. but it was fun. Idk why, on that day, practically all the school's had their school trip there or something. So, it was literally crowded with students. Teenagers there, dont really hang out in malls, like us here. They hang out in museums. Yup, believe it or not. according to what i saw lah. after that, they brought us to this mall, Mangga Dua. which was right across our hotel. I didnt really enjoy that mall, honestly. It was scary. haha and it was FILLED with people. But nothing can beat the roads in Jakarta, OMG ppl drive like crazy over there. It was like India. Every car was so close to each other. Literally millimeters away from each other. Then in the night, we went to Grand Indonesia Mall, to meet my dad's friend and his family. I LOVE that mall. It was waaaay waayy better. haha. Then they had this fountain show thingy. It was cool. (:

Third day, 16122009

We were off to Bandung. It was more of a road trip. We spent like 3 hours on the road. Finally when we got there, they brought us to like this Outlet called Rumah Mode. It was supposedly the most famous outlet there. It was okay, it was something like FOS but bigger. Then we went to this cafe to eat, and it was so nice. HAHA. The view esp, the cafe was on top of this hill, so it was pretty chilly. After that, it was more shopping. Outlet's after outlets, because they were all in a row. So we walked. Later on, went back to the hotel, rest a bit. Then we went to this restaurant called Kampung Daun. This was further up a hill, so it was more chilly but, the atmosphere was AWESOME. The whole idea fr the restaurant was like, cabanas and huts. Lots of greenery.

Fourth day, 17122009

OH OH, we went to this place called 'Tangkupan Perahu', if im not mistaken, when was a volcano shaped of an upside down boat. It was also the source of sulphuric waters. The view up there, was awesome and misty. There were ppl selling stuffs. Quite nice lah. But there were ppl walking and selling stuffs, and they likt literally follow you to your car. OMG, so annoying. they wont give up. My mum will literally give in after a while, so we had to pull her away -.- Then we headed to the Hot Springs. The water there made my leg itch, pssssffttt. We later went to this strawberry place to have lunch, and that place also offers flying fox, dirt bikes and stuff.
I wanted to try the flying fox so badly, but daddy was so scared something was going to happen, like he didnt trust the equipments there. So, Amanda and mummy ended riding the dirt bikes. HAHAHAH Seriously, that was funny. In the night, we went to the Paris Van Java mall, and met up with Ashley and Bhavani. (:

Fifth day, 18122009

Mum wanted to shop so badly, so she told the tour guide to take us to more malls -.- seriously, for the first time in my life, i was TIRED of shopping. HAHA. So, after that we were on the road back to Jakarta, and mann, was it a long road. i slept the whole way through. But before actually reaching Jakarta, Ashley told our tour guide to take us to this safari. We couldnt make it for the day one, so we tried for the night one. He said, it was an experience not to be missed. So, okay lah. That place another one, on top of the hill. So, it was cold. SERIOUSLY COLD. after lining up for an hour, it was around 7 something, that we went in with this like train cart thingy. Thank god we were one of the first there. The whole journey was exhilarating yet scary. But seriously, i loved it. (: there were explosions here and there, to make it more fun. (: i wanted to take a pic with this cheetah, but like it started getting really violent with this boy, so i chicken out. HAHA.

Last day, 19122009

Since it was the last day, we decided to rest, wake up late and etc. Dad's friend brought us to this hotel/mall, for some Taiwanese food. The mall, for christmas, the theme was Spongebob and friends. LIKE LITERALLY. it was so cuteee. (: Pictures are on Facebook. We said our goodbyes, and off we headed to the airport. Eventhough our flight was delayed, we reached home safely. Thank god.
