Quick updates on Jakarta & Bandung :)

Day 1:

Bff got lectures in the morning so I had a super looong sleep till 2pm :D Later we went to Tanah Abang for some shopping and really everything there are all dirt cheaaaapp! Bought telekung for Mom, batik & songkok jawa for Dad and big brotha.

The best milky yummah cendol in the world! Serious paling sedap ni.

Rp 7000 sajaa :DD

Bajai and my very first experience it in. I didn't quite really fancy it initially but guess it's way better than riding an angkot in Jakarta.

And the sodding congested traffic, you can't get away from it. T___T

The most expensive coffee in coffee's world history!

Day 2

We left Jakarta as early as 6am for Bandung only to know that our booking was cancelled and we had to wait for another hour before we could board the next coach at 8am. Fortunately the VIP shuttle was soooo cozy and the service was uber splendid we really enjoyed the 3 hours journey! We planned to cover the whole Bandung so Qilah hired a sumpir (driver) for 2 days and as soon as we reached Bandung we straight away went to Tangkuban Parahu in West Java.

Late brunch at Tree House's English restaurant :)

An hour drift up to the mountain and we were finally there. Yeays!

The scenic Kawah Ratu which last erupted in 1983.

Day 3

It took 3 hours per journey up to Kawah Putih so generally our 2nd day in Bandung was all about travelling on roads lol.

For a super awesome breathtaking scenery like this, I don't mind if it takes more than 8 hours of driving really :') Worth itttt!

Sangatt cantik. Subhanallah :)

Due to the strong sulphuric smell and high acidity we tourists were not encouraged to stay more than an hour in here. But really after 20mins in there I almost threw up on our way down down the mountain...

Rumah Model - Spree heaven in Bandung yaww! Naik sawan tengok Guess, Armani Exchange etc semurah Rp 99,000! *fainted*

Dinner at Paris van Java - the coolest tempat lepak ever! :D

Day 4

We always saved the best part for the last so we reserved the last day to be spent in Trans Studio Bandung. We were so thrilled for roller coaster rides and fun fun funn that we could hardly sleep on the night before LOL. 1 to 10, I'd rate Monday for 11! Hahah! Nothing else could beat a day out with bffs in a theme park not even a hot cuppa on a hectic morning! :)
