My 1st Oversea Trip

I was on the limo when I woke up, and mommy had saying that we will be going to somewhere we’ve never been. I wonder where it was, until daddy said this is to be my 1st oversea trip. What is oversea? And he said we are going to Bandung, Indonesia. Oooo.. I got it! Oversea is somewhere out of Malaysia. Ok .. that would be interesting. I wonder what was there would attract my mom and dad decided to go there. Mommy said that was their 1st trip to oversea by AirAsia, which she actually would love to take MAS but since the trip was worth the money, she thinks there was no harm trying. She also said, it’s not that far as they had travel to London for the honeymoon (which she said that was the time I was conceived), so she hoped the traveling won’t be affect much on me.

The trip was actually to celebrate mommy’s birthday. We had travel on the Jan 15-17, and it was worth it, traveled for sightseeing and shopping. When we arrived, there was a man called Pak Ayi, waited for us and mommy said he would be our driver for the whole trip. This man looked decent and we thank him for his effort and his willingness on guiding us around Bandung. Mommy was excited when we arrived at Pasar Baru, one of the small complex selling lots of textiles, hijabs, and etc. Mommy bought herself some textiles and kebaya where she was happy with the price and the quality of all the stuffs. Me? I was tired, had no appetite and I was feeling drowsy.

After some time, we went back to the hotel, had shower and mommy was planning to go shopping at Heritage and some of the FO she knew through internet. However, I was accidentally slipped in the shower and hit a bit on my lips, which I was crying out loud and it was really hurt. Mommy said sorry and she felt terrible on what happened to me. It’s ok mommy, no worries, I’m a bit tough like you :). After we went shopping which actually mommy didn’t have feeling on buying anything, we were up to one diner place for dinner. It was cozy and authentic style of Bandung or Indonesian. The foods were great and I heard them talking about the good service too. I was not paying attention while happy playing around. After we had sumptuous dinner, we were straight ahead to Rumah Mode, one of the famous FO in Bandung.

The next day, after had some breakfast, mommy and daddy was ready to go to one place called Tangkuban Perahu. I do not really know what the place it was, but mummy said it could be cold and cloudy so she wanted me to put on the sweater. I was kind of excited to see the place daddy called a “volcano”. It’s quite a long journey we had to arrive at the location. There were lots of people and the scenery was beautiful, we’ve taken lots of picture. Mommy wanted to ride a donkey with me, which I would say, I was excited at the beginning but I wasn’t soon after that. It might be because of the cold and the riding wasn’t that comfy. Well, I’m not quite sure if I still remember the moment was, but no worries since daddy has taken video on me riding the donkey.

We went to Tea Plantation and Strawberry Park soon after that. I saw mommy and daddy picked the strawberries and heard they were saying the strawberry juice was flavorsome. I was tempted to taste it but mom forbids me to do that. After that we had lunch and went to Amanda Brownies in Jalan Dago for souvenirs. We headed to lots of FO, which I was not quite interested and it was really tiring day for me. I was restless and hungry yet quite happy when I saw daddy bought himself some apparel. After sometime, I heard mommy saying she was not satisfied with the FO and she saw the some of the stuffs were fake. She asked Pak Ayi to go to Rumah Mode again. There we’ve bumped to daddy’s friend, he called him Pak Adi. I was confused, I heard before one is Pak Ayi and here is Pak Adi. Why there were so many Pak in here??? Hmm.. I was wondering why. Never mind.. but I heard at first mommy said she thought she’s mistaken seeing him as Pak Adi since she knew they are in Malaysia. And she was surprised that the person was Pak Adi. Furthermore his family also was there because they’ve came for a wedding. That was surprisingly sweet moment meeting them there.

Mommy and daddy have done lots of shopping in Rumah Mode. We were tired and restless. We just had room service for dinner and I saw mommy packed some of the shopping stuffs in the luggage. The next day was our last day in Bandung. Daddy asked a favour of Pak Ayi to go to ITB because he was looking for a painting for our new home. I saw he was drooling of some paintings but they were quite pricey daddy said. We were soon headed to Diaz where mommy and daddy bought some wallets and stopped for a while at Pasar Baru. Again.. Mummy bought some kebaya and daddy bought hijabs for Opah. We also bought some souvenirs for daddy and mommy’s colleague. We were in the Airport with two luggages which full with shopping stuff and I knew mommy was happy with the trip. Daddy said it won’t be the last time we would travel here. He was happy and thought on buying the next trip to Bandung again. Me? Since that was my 1st trip to oversea, I was really feel delightful and blessed to have a chance travelling around even though it was tiring, I also had fun. Thanks mummy and daddy.. I love you both.
