Am really excited as going to meet him soon after 3 weeks of being thousands of miles apart. Woke up 5.45 a.m to get myself ready off to airport. Brushing,cleaning and grooming took me 1hour to be completed and his brother knocked the room door ensuring I am done. Oh yeah, I am staying over at his bro's house yesterday night as to celebrate his mom's b'day. Bought her lo Hong Ka Birdnest and ended up bought myself one =) did not tended to but commercial proposition the salesperson presenting is kinda convinced hence there I ended up carrying two bags home.
I left at 5pm from office and Denneth, his bro pick me up around 6.30 p.m and we heading off to his house in sungai buloh meeting his wife, Mom and sis. We then off to Six Happiness Chinese Restaurant and waited a little while for the eldest bro and family to join and the dinner got started after. Nice food, nice serve! as of this thanks to his sis for the hospitality. The dinner ended up with the b'day song,angpau-giving and picture-taking session. Call it a day!
There's more pic but not with me, the only one I've taken with hp, sweet mei mei (eldest bro's daughter),Muackz!The plane depart sharply at 9.10 a.m and we were served with meal after a little while and tell you what, the moment of enjoying mousse cheese cake while be all eyes on the visible body of very fine water droplets suspended in the atmosphere, worries free!! lurvee white fluffy clouds !! and of course the cake..those who traveled by MAS airline and tasted before surely know how SAVORY the cheesy fluffy cakes meant to be!
Reached Soekarno-Hatta,Jakarta international airport. Heading myself for the luggage collecting and at last I DID IT!! See, I'VE GROWN UP!! Can't wait to step myself forward looking for my Mr.Right...Hey, there he is trying to give me signal flapping his arm. I walk toward him, we hug and kiss, beautiful moment!
We first heading to Hotel Gran Mahakam for checking out as the hotel not providing access to internet services and I thought I need it in order to work from there. The hotel is kinda impressed ,*too bad that I didn't snap any pic* wonder how is the next hotel gonna look like. After the procedure we then march on to a randomly picked restaurant as to fill our growling stomach.
We go for Chinese Food
While waiting for food
Fav Ice Lemon Tea
We had bean sproud with salty fish, His fav beef, and sumptious seafood palate
Burp~ Super full! The food is nice for me but not to my fastidious darling. He is really picky when it comes to food. Finicky eater! We then move our asses heading off to Hotel Kristal. Traveling is a wonderful life-enriching experience that one should embark on a regular basis. The thrill of visiting new places and learning about other cultures are intangible. Of course such ventures should be complimented by a good hotel stay. Couldn't wait to see the place I gonna stay for 9 days... hopefully it's not disappointing.

We are in the room of the above shown and I thought my makeup needed a touch-up while he's there making a call to one of his newly known colleague from Philippine as of asking whether he's interested in joining us for the Jakarta tour. Christian, assented to darling's suggestion and we then met at the lobby and...here we go~
On the way to destination 
look here please..*snap*
Simply me
We setting off to Taman Mini Indonesia Indah located within Jakarta, a park that provides a complete picture of the grandeur of Indonesia in beautiful miniature presentation. After paying the tickets for each of us, the chauffeur drove us in and only then we realize it's impossible to visit this place by merely walking as it's a real HUMONGOUS park ever seen!! Hence the chauffeur will perform his very duty to drive us and stop off the miniature we likely to check out. *I think we are not too mean as we paid him 540000 Rp per day ( RM192++)so better fully utilize lor* We first made a quick foray into the museum where we did not actually realize it was a museum initially and what worst, AGAIN we have to pay for the entrance fee. Why???? thought we have just paid?!?!?! anyway, we don't have a choice, what's more, pay lor...

As if NEVER see Banana?!?!After the picture-taking session outside the building we then went into the museum for more pics...you'll never believe how many picture I've taken, UNIMAGINABLE! UNCOUNTABLE! *grin childishly* =.=''' The minute we enter, guess what? we have to pay another amount of money therein. For camera. what?!?!?! though the amount is small but it's still absurd lor...-Roaring-

Princess and The BodyguardsWe then ask the chauffeur to drive us around and stop by if we wanted to as it's really too huge for us to walk in this gigantic miniature, exactly akin to walk in a CITY. A sudden idea of call by to Anjungan Sumatera Barat from darling, attracted apparently by the uniqueness of the building. Agreed as noticing CUTE bunny cartoon character standing at the front door seems like welcoming guest for a visit. Brilliant thought as there's a stall nearby to as well get a thirst-quenching mineral water and we then get a flying visit as knew there is nothing special except to take a gander at the magnificent buildings. The first thing gonna do is to snap with those bunny, no doubt. Was initially two of them standing under the hot shining sun , two more run towards us, WOW~how passionate of them, thinking. =.=''' Mana tau, we have to pay?!?!?! okay...lesson one.
why cute bunny conned people ger?T_T

Forever the same destinationThe journey was coming to an end and we heading off to a grandly built shopping mall right after for our dinner and certainly to see about. We went food court to grab something to filled the starving stomachs. I had their 'Curry mee tarik' and they had ermm...lazy to tell, skip. Nice noodle as for mine since I fond of those QQ (spongy) one and love it! Talk about the immense mall, a real right place to learn about the people and culture there. People in Jakarta are generally fashion conscious. You can see everyone is wearing modishly. NO KIDDING !!
Gee guess what now, 80% of them possessing LV (lovable yet hardly-attainable-everyones-favourite) Young and old, everyone's having! can you imagine?! People in Jakarta damn loaded lor~ *wonder if they carried the replica as it's easily obtainable there* If so, WHY ??????? don't buy if cant afford...making cheap the brand lor~ you'll ruined the brand reputation OK!! *Fiercely Frown*
Ouch~ sore feet leading me a called for a break, not a short one but a real break ,meaning, I'll be able to rest my body on the immaculate comfy bed *whoa~ bed +.+ *answer to why im pig (zordiac)* We manage to do some groceries at 24hours mini market before reaching hotel and there goes the end of my first day in Jakarta.
Im done *Tinkling sound*

Escaping everydays hustle and bustle
After 3 hours drive through scenic plantations, mountainous roads and lush rice paddies, we reach the majestic semi live volcanic crater located at highland in West Java province Bandung, which remained remarkably underdeveloped. Is a popular weekend retreat from bustling capital as the place having a relatively low temperature... chill wind blowing... superb! the pleasant weather overjoyed me the minutes I stepped down from car. Moreover, it is an awe-inspiring sight of emanating sulfur fumes if you notice from the below shown pic...and no doubt to shot some pictures for reminiscing (you sure some?) k lar... plenty, can ? =.=''' Sadly, doesn't really fine with the sulfur's smell. Stink! if you know how sulfur smells like. Simply enjoy the splendid panoramic view and the cold smoldering atmosphere. Soothing!
Due to the road that is built all the way up to the crater there are many souvenir shops, it is no problem to bypass them, harmless but do not simply ask for price as they will tend to keep pestering you. Can certainly choose not to buy but if wanted to, please negotiate as they mark up the price really high. Locals are as well making their living selling knitted Monmouth cap and scarf, local food/nosh and best part, renting horses to take you glancing around and I tried. *smirk* How i feel? Ermm... Great and not as scary as I thought ,maybe he doesn't really move at a fast gallop.

Thanks again for these pic..lovin it!
After the amazing one hour plus trek from the crater we move on to the next destination. As according to driver's suggestion we then heading to Ciater Hot Spring, a park with streams and pools that are fed by warm mineral springs, which are created by the heat from nearby volcanoes. Anyway is not a place worth going if you did not bring extra shirts. Moreover, the place is too crowded with locals... kinda yucky to see them rub their feet there...Ewww~ NO WAY! not gonna drench myself in contaminated mixture of humans dirts. On our way, Elvin call a stop to try the Bandung grilled sweetcorn. Erm... "better don't try" *whispering* not really hygienics I would say. Dumped aside only after a few bites.
Borrowed for posing purposes =)

We proceed to have our late lunch after a half hour wandered at Sari Ater hot spring. Ya...we are there just bout half an hour as we are too hungry and that the place were not really interesting, furthermore, are HOT! +.+ Continued our journey in accord to Driver 's idea as of having lunch in Kampung Daun. CRAP! Took us for about 1 hour drive to reach this dining place. Thought what is so special about the place that insisted him to have such a long drive to merely for a dinner. *skeptical*
The first step into Kampug Daun, and it makes you feel as though you are entering this mysterious forest. I would say it's a dining place more for the atmosphere than the food but it’s really worth your money. Love the uniqueness of the landscaping techniques utilizing natural materials and the use of natural terrain and waterfalls. It's not a restaurant per se but spread across an area. The eating area is consisting of numerous huts of various sizes, located all over. You can have a view of the hill, streams and waterfall. Everything is green... it's like you're transported into a dense jungle... close your eyes, listen to the sound of nature...it's really soothing.
We reached around 4pm and informed to have wait for about half and hour for a seat from the receptionist at main entrance. HUH?!?! HALF AND HOUR???!!! 1 hour drive and now have to wait for half and hour more? SUPER BA BAI lOR~ Most probably due to that day was weekends and guess usually packed. Fine... let me do some shopping to kill time. Talk about this, I am super regretted as of not buying that blue sweater! *grumpy* the minute I'm about to try it on, darling come to me telling we have the seat as the driver got it with his way (not sure how though) and thought of getting it after the lunch. I LUPA pula!!! SAYANG SEKALI~

Walkpath with open tent all alongWalking a long way up heading to our dining table but motivated to see that we are going to have a real nice open tent as of having our splendid lunch! Yeah~
Open tent
Our Table?!?!
Sad thing!! We don't have the personalized open tent like others as we are too hungry to wait for one. *Sob sob* pathetically worst! we have to wait for half and hour more for the food... can u imagine how RAVENOUS we are!
But still in the mood of taking pic hehe~
Chrispy TofuMy darling are such a lovely boyfriend. Keep pester him as I wanted to try the local tofu in packet selling most of the place in jakarta and bandung (crater) as it looks special but he don't allow by terrifying me with the concequences of contracted diarrhea. Elated when he placed an ordered for tofu right before any order. Though the Tofu not the same as those selling in packet but still delectable =) He cared me so much, even for something really tiny! LOVE YA, Elvin Chong! *shivering*

Not only sharing thought but songswalked around the compound after the late lunch /early dinner and for certain not failed to have some picture taking session. Heading towards next stop right after.
Here we go...Wuhoo~ Shopping time!!! If you dint aware about this, let me brief you now. Nowaday, peoples tends to go bandung for its factory outlets. Bandung has a lot of interesting factory outlet around the city which offer export garments at bargain prices. The foreign store and foreign currency price tag often is still on the item.
Brands at many of the stores include: Hugo Boss, DKNY, Calvin Klein, Armani, Crocodile, Nike, Reebok, The Gap, Banana Republic, Guess, Tommy Hilfiger, Polo, Adidas, Puma , Victoria's Secret, NY & Company, Top Shop, Zara, MNG, Roxy, Hush Puppy & etc
The shops carry both Grade A (best quality overruns) and Grade B (seconds with something wrong with them so they didn't pass quality inspection by the buyer). Some also carry factory rejects ... Anyway these factory outlets represent paradise for those in search of a bargain and I AM..Im poor k~ a fresh graduates that has started working for about Half year only ler~ But the materialistic me love branded goods...that's the little evil inside rules me uncontrollably~ wuhuhu~~
We bought Kinda many but not enough still as we are running out of time!!! I Have loads more to go~~ SADLY, we really have to get going cause the car we hired required to reach Jakarta at 9pm and we are there at the factory outlet around 6 something... shall only shops a little while hence... Manage to shop only 2 of the fac outlet of tons of it but it's really syiok to see our awesome buying!!!
We reached hotel around 9 something and I was DOG-TIRED! reluctant to go out even for my dinner thus we come to a consensus to play masak masak...*giggle* and whenever come to this masak masak game, He always the one who gonna incharge all...erm...i'll help but sometimes also la...who say i'm bad??? no ler im good k..just that he love to cook ma~ then let him do it all la~ =P (For certain he's a better cook than I am) but im not proclaims that i am a lousy cook k!!! can get clarification from my ex Housemate if being sceptical...I've been preparing dishes for 12 'Wai sek' housemates during college time. Dont play play! and...MAINT POINT,THEY LOVE THE FOODS!!!
Thanks darling~
We went down to the pool after our excellent foods( though not a lavish dinner but I really truly LOVE THE HELL OUT OF MY DARLING'S COOKS ). We really enjoyed our GLORIOUS TIME !!!
