I found that many things has changed there. The stuffs are more expensive and I can no longer bargain as low as I did back then. But still I enjoyed the trip very much because it was my first trip abroad with dear mommy and I was in Bandung as a working lady with her own moneyh! Yeah! I think it was fair enough to unleash the shopaholic in me hahaha I also thought that I'll shop till I drop in Bandung, and starting from January will focus on saving for 2013 trips (^^)/ O0o0 that might just be another excuse kan..
So since this is a very common destination, I'll just post the pics lah..
So paling best of course lah budak yang baru habis SPM... After SPM, I actually worked as a maid for almost a month and yes no oversea trip for me haha
I wanted to save some leave for this year's trips so I worked from 8 am-5 pm on the day of departure to Jakarta. I packed lightly, brought extra bags and when I arrived at the airport, the guy at the counter was yelling "Jakarta last call!! Jakarta last call!!" I was late!!!!
Spent a night in Jakarta and went to Bandung by train (^^) And our first stop in Bandung was Trans Studio!!!
Well, my mom watched too much of the Indonesian TV shows.. She saw a program that featured Trans Studio once and made that her ultimate destination in Bandung and even promised to pay for our tickets and she did!! I love thrill rides very much but I don't know whether my cousins are on for it. They were excited and looking at the snaking long queue, I thought VIP passes would be a good idea.. Maka terbanglah uang ku seperti seagull2 di Australia
Trans Studio is not that big and only one of the ride was new to me. But i enjoyed every single time spent there (^^) my cousins were such a sport! Lagi best sebab VIP pass kan.. No need to queue (^^)/
Another part of Bandung that I haven't been to is Kawah Putih. The above is the paddy terrace that can be seen before reaching Kawah Putih. Actually, my uncle wanted to go to Tangkuban Perahu, but then the driver thought we wanted to go to Kawah Putih that morning since my uncle said he wants to go back to Cibaduyut to buy some leather stuffs afterwards. Silently happy ni the driver misunderstood hikhik because I went to Tangkuban Perahu twice already!
It was raining when we arrived at the ticket booth. The worker there told us, it might not be raining up there so we paid for the tickets and used the Avanza to go up. At first we'd wanted to use the angkot. It would've been fun on the bumpy and winding road but since it was raining, it was not such a good idea.
Luckily, it was not raining on top and there were few tourist too!!! I like it very much. Looks very different from the other craters that I've been to. The lake was a vibrant turquoise coloured lake with thick mist all around. I was okay with the smell of sulfur but our little Sara coughed all the way back to Bandung after that.. Kesian...
Did a lot of shopping.. Sampai kena heret bag sebab berat..
Did my first paragliding in Puncak. It was about to rain when I started, it was very windy so it was a good weather for Paragliding. Lucky!! (^^)/ The pilot and I glide on top of the platform for a few times and as we descend towards the landing point, he did some extreme maneuvers. He said I was too light that he can't do the more extreme ones.. I was like, "Me? Light????" o_0
And after that, we got stuck in jam for more than 5 hours because the road was closed. Only vehicles going up was allowed to move. Urgh! sistem yang menyusahkn!
And last but not least, nasi ayam penyet paling sedap di Pasar Baru. There was another restaurant in Ciwidey that served scrumptious food~ They have the most delicious sweet and sour fish and sizzled kangkong!!!!! (^^)
It's 2.20 a.m now~ And off to eat some cakes.. Lapar pulak...
