Bandung Spree :)

(By:Aisyah Habib)

1st October 2010 Our flight was at 10.30 pm, i guess. But excited terlebih punya pasal, 6.30 pm kita orang dah bertolak. Ouh,yes. Before i forgot my third sister, Asma' was not following us to this Bandung trip as she's having her Penilaian Sekolah Rendah Agama ( PSRA ) on the same date that we were supposed to flyfly. I know, kesian kan.

Takpe la kan. We bought lotts of shirts,pants and handie to her as a payback.

(It was a candid picture of us. So please ignore my ugly+tak bersedia+tengah mengunyah expression. Haha)

So, here it is..

Amirah in the Duty Free.

Ouh,and that's me. Fyi, this is just an action-terlebih session. Kita orang tak beli coklat pun. Masuk kedai-ukur keluasan kedai-ambik coklat-beratur kat cashier-tak jadi beli-keluar kedai. Haha :D It's normal okay in our family. We used to say 'nak itu, nak ini' and at last kita orang keluar dengan sedih-bangganya. ( sedih sebab tak dapat beli ape ape, bangga sebab kamilah satu-satunya orang yang dah masuk dan pusingpusing tapi tak jadik beli ape ape ). Well, actually takdela sedih mane pun. I'm not a chocolate-addict. Btw, coklat kat airport sumpah mahal. So my mummydaddy shouldn't be blamed la kan :)

Checking in Waiting!! Well,for your information Air Asia plane yang terlebih cekap ni buat hal dan menyebabkan flight kita orang di-delayed kan 1 jam kemudian. Pff -,-

2nd October 2010

We arrived in Soekarno Hatta Interlational Airport around 2 am ( waktu indonesia ). And guess what? It's kinda membazir la kan kalau check in hotel at that time as we just had 2-3 hours to sleep. So my beloved parents had decided for us to had our short-sleep in the surau that they used to called 'musholla'. I was like ''what?" and i keep telling myself ' its just a 2-3 hours nap '. I was wondering ''we must be the only one who slept in the musholla''. And i was 100% wrong because when we entered the musholla, they were around 10-15 person sleeping in there. So at last, i said ''okay la''. I thought i could sleep deeply for that 2-3 hours. But still, i cant sleep comfortly with my clogged biggy nose. Perghh, what a day! And after 1 hours dealing with my fortunate nose, i fall asleep. Pheww

We woke up at 5 am and prayed. Then we went to 'kamar kecil' which was side by side with the musholla. Kat situla kita orang gosok gigi dan tak mandi. Heheh. At 5.30, kita orang naik supir pergi bandung.

He's our 'supir' ( Henri ) from Jakarta to Bandung. Dia charge memang murah. Rp 450,000 sahaja. Kereta pun bersih. Overall, memang comfy habislah.

The Suzuki MPV

As we reached Bandung, we went straight ahead to Hotel Progo.

Progo Hotel

This family room suite had costs us Rp 545,000 per night.

Progo is at Jalan Riau, walking distance to all the FOs. The room is 'okay' la kan? But the bathroom was quite terrible to me. Even Amirah couldn't bear to step in the bathroom. She keep using my crocs as a toilet slippers. ( kurang asam kankan? )

Then, we had our breakfast at this Giggling Box.

This cafe was just amazing. It's beautiful. I mean,it's an english style deco and the food wasn't so bad. I love their Nasi Goreng Kampung (i guess. cant recall).

Cantik kankan? * terimakasih

After breakfast, we went out and starts to shop at the nearby FO which is just 5 mins walking from our hotel. And i find this..

An ice cream?

Then,we rides on angkot to Rumah Mode..

One of the stall in Rumah Mode.

This batagor thing was my mom's favorites. And yes, i admit ' benda ni sedap! '

Rumah Mode was the best FO to shop in Bandung.

We had our lunch in Dapur Sang Kuriang Restaurant.

Sunda Dishes Truly delicious, i tell you.

Pisang Bakar Keju.

After lunch, we went to the other FO in Jalan Riau and Dago till 8 pm. Then we went back to Progo and had our dinner in that Giggle Box Cafe again.

3rd October 2010

Well,pagi2 kitaorang dah check out dari Progo Hotel and check in to Grand Kopo Hotel. Okay, i've a lott to tell you about this Kopo Kopo. Hotel dia cantik, bersih dan murah. We book a family room suite for Rp 325,000 only. The room was much much better than Progo's. It's double storey room. Atas, katil single 2 and bawah katil queen. Atas bawah ade tv. Toilet die bersih berkilauan. Sangatlah worth it kankan?

Ah, fyi supir kitaorang ( pak hari) yg bagitahu kewujudan Grand Kopo nie. Pasal pak hari ni pulak,sesiapa nak pakai khidmat dia kat bandung, bolehla. Dia memang bagus. Dia recomended mcm2 lah such as - tempat makan yg sedap, tempat shopping beg tak asli ( Cibaduyut dll ), kat sape nk beli kerepek pisang sedap ( actually yg jual tu kwn dia ), kat kedai ape nak beli kain dan Mukena ( telekung ) dan FO yg bagus2. 

Okay,then pak hari bawak kitaorang lunch kat Restauran Sederhana Masakan Padang.

I enjoyed eating their dishes and i lovee their 'sambal hijau

We had ride in this greeny thing twice. Well, they called this 'angkot'.

One of my bestt experience in Bandung was riding in this angkot.

Well, after lunch we walk and walk from FO to another. And we found this Es Durian stall..

You have to try their Es Durian. Delly Yummy :p

It's a Zoo actually.

Gossip FO

4th October 2010

At Aira's Jeans House. Best kedai nie. Pagi - pilih kain jeans - ukur pinggang . Malam - siap - hantar hotel. ( kedai ni pun pak dudi yang recomended )

Then, we went to Pasar Bharu. At first i thought it was a place to shop for a handie or what. And again i was wrong. To me ( my sisters thought this too ), this place are so not cool and boring and not intresting at all! But to those who are ' pengunjung utama' Jalan TAR, Padang Besar, Mini Kelantan yang suka buat collection sekodi telekung di rumah sendiri, kain bermeter2 ( like my mummy:D )or whatever lagi la kan, the tittle you'll give to this pasar bharu thing is ''heaven''.

The only person ( in my family ) who can smile shopping in this pasar bharu was my mom. She had a strength that only 1 person out of 100th have. This is a gift kan? Hehheh :)

Penat punya pasal kitaorg ( me, my sisters and my dad ) naik kat foodcourt.

Pak Che Met stall in Pasar Bharu Food Court - Nasi Tempel Ayam Bakar

Around 5.30, my beloved mummy brought me again to this place

We went here again to get my booties :)

Ouh, i'm gonna miss this place!

The Secret FO

5th October 2010 Farewell..

Mummydaddy and the couple who join us on Pak hari trip. ( fyi, di sebabkan couple ni gabung kereta dengan kita orang, so pak hari charges us Rp 150,000 per day. i mean, my family paid Rp 150,000 and so do the couple )

We went back to Jakarta with Pak Henri. He fetched us at our hotel and brought us to Jakarta again.

Well, we haven't try this 'pisang pontianak' yet. Hahha.

Indonesia is more advanced than Malaysia :)

Ready to fly back to Malaysia..

Goodbye Indonesia!

Thanks for reading.
