A very short holiday.3 days vacation with so many places that we planned to go.Actually dapat beli tiket yang teramatlah murahnya, tapi flight time for departure petang..so sampai sana pon dah malam.then lusa nya dah nak balik..kali ni hangkut the girls sekali.kesian gak tengok cik abang..dah la bawak 2 anak kecik, almost 8-months pregnant wife and mother-in-law as well..tapi kalau xde mak, x tau la..lagi susah kitorang..sian mak..holiday sambil take care cucu.anyway since this is our first trip to Bandung, I will jot down our experiences from day 1 until 3 in details.
Day 1 (21/7/2011)
Arrived Bandara Hussein Sastranegara Airport at about 5:30pm. probably the most smallest and the most insufficient international airport I have ever been to. Imagine la, kaunter untuk clear passport upon arrival ade 2 je, mixed up foreign and local passport.The system my goodness..so damn slow.ntah ape yg lambat sgt, sampai 45minit berdiri. kesian la kat budak2, warga mas dan wanita mengandung ni.x peka langsung!!kerusi pon xde.toilet je ade, selagi x lepas kaunter berdiri la situ samapi nk pengsan.
Ni la rupa arrival area nya, org mcm lebah nak kuar dari sarang.
Nasib baik ade supir dari hotel dah tunggu..siap name board lagi. Keluar airport dah azan maghrib, dalam kul 6:30pm. Kami direct g hotel sebab dah letih sgt. We checked in at
Hotel Cihampelas 2 :a budget 2 stars hotel located right in front of Amaris Hotel.Condition?Okla untuk budget hotel, dont aspect tip top condition unless u spent money for 3* stars above. So we booked for Superior Room, additional extra bed which cost us Rp620K + Rp200K for 2nights stay. Lebih kurang RM145/night including extra bed and breakfast for 3pax. Harap maaf ye, towel yg wangi2, bilik yang harum xkan dapat di sini.cukupla dapat bilik yg agak bersih, aircond, hot shower dan TV.

so mandi2 then malam kita decide untuk dinner di Ikan Bakar Pak Chi Met. For uols info, semua itinerary trip was made by husband and I, from searching hotel, booking, restaurant, places to go, rates as well. Ini semua through hard study (eceh) mostly from blog, info from internet. I tried garume bakar sebab byk review blog kata must try this fish. Initially macam xnak sebab mak cakap garume tu ikan talapia which I really not ineterested since I dont eat this fish. mak plak cakap ikan ni makan taik (iye ke??). then i google n found out that this fish is actually ikan kaloi.now I dont know wether garume=talapia=kaloi or not. finally I decided to try, mak might be wrong.xde iyela ikan makan taik, unless ikan DBKL.

Lepas kenyang makan kita ajak supir bawak g Paris Van Java, an exclusive shopping mall ala2 Pavilion laa..all the grand boutique and expensive selling shop here. Sogo pon ade. Kat sini pompuan2 nya agak moden, so dressing ala2 urban and sexy chic. Nothing interesting, just walked and grabbed a box of J-Co donut here.

So, end of Day 1..balik hotel terus tido..kena dapat enough rest since tomorrow will be all day out.
Day 2 (22/7/2011)
Woke up early morning, after Subuh baring2 sekejap then start to mandi and pack necessary things. Breakfast so so je.only nasi goreng, telur mata kerbau, keropok dan roti bakar with jam je yang ade. alas perut sebab nak jalan. Supir plak datang x punctual, dah janji tggu jauh sikit dari hotel dlm kul 8:30pagi, batang idung dia x nmpk2. Cik abang dah geram.semalam dh janji amik dia untuk Rp400,000. Kalau amik through hotel kena Rp450,000. After about 20minits waiting at the roadside, Arissa started mengamuk dlm buggy tu. Luckily the supir came, if not we might take other rental car.
So our first destination was Pasar Baru, haunting for telekung of course..and kalau ade jubah/tudung cantik2..anyway we found out that the price was not very very cheap actually. we went to the first kedai, belek2 telekung cotton jepun yg penuh sulam tu..then bargain for 1 dozen telekung.unfortunately the girls x bagi byk pun kurang..bila nak pergi, kita cakap terima kasih then dia mcm bengang..
"tak boleh la buat macam ini pak... " apahal plak, nak paksa2..kuasa membeli kat kita, dah dia x bagi kurang..cari kedai lain lagi bagus..rimasnya sebab byk sgt ulat jual air..iyela cari rezeki tapi ramai sangat, rimas.selagi tak beli dia pujuk2, paksa2 kita..dok situ sebab kita pon ade anak kecik yg memang akan attracted to those drinks punya..lagi yg jual souvenirs lagi..hi....Aqialh plak demam, meragam sikit..end up kita just beli telekung, sempat grabbed blouse untuk mak then we headed to 2nd destination..
