Pusing2 Bikin Pening Part 2

Day 2 (Sunday)

Decided to call the Silverbird contact person at the airport to confirm tomorrow's trip to Bandung with the family rate and negotiated a car+driver for today for a drive around Jakarta. Was quoted 500k rupiah all in except parking fees. Agreed and pick up was at 12noon.

First stop was Tanah Abang Mall. Wow!! That is all i can say. Bought some baju, bags for parents and siblings. Reminder to self, must not bring mum here or will be stuck forever in this place. 15 storeys of cheap and beautiful goods...luckily we made a list of what to get, managed to eat only around 3pm. Foodcourt was very nice and clean. They have a card system to pay for the food. U deposit money in the card (available at cashier) then go order food from stalls which will swipe your card and deduct the cost from it. Once u finish eating you can retrieve your balance from the cashier. Yummy Lontong here and the Bakso was okay.

(shoppinggggggggggggg....)

(very impressed with the foodcourt card system...)


Next stop is Taman Anggerek Mall. Huge huge mall. I cant be bothered to shop anymore but most brands u can find in KL are here e.g Mango, Roxy, Quiksilver etc. All food outlets available in Kl are also here. 2 department stores Parisian and Metro. 2 of us didnt want to go shopping so we look for a cafe that serves alcohol and chill. We ended up at Delifrance and finished a bottle of wine while waiting for the other 3. On the way to carpark, saw a promotion on Sony E hp. Bought one and wanted to swipe as didnt bring that much cash, they actually asked for my passport and took picture of it to verify with their banker. Lucky i didnt leave it in the hotel safe. Wanted to go to CITOS to hang out but the driver said it was already closed. (at 9pm?? we think he just wanted to go home early)...went back to hotel to sleep
