Stay Wise: Jakarta Trip 10 June

Jakarta was never listed as our holiday destinations. Things are expensive and the most important is the transport is not convenience. So why did we go there this time? Well, Mr.'s close friend was having his wedding ceremony in Jakarta. So, Mr. wanted to go and I took this chance as the best time to travel before another new member arrive somewhere in October. The wedding was actually at 19th but then my Master's final exam was on the 18th. So I have to change the flight for me and Dave from 22nd to 17th and it costs extra Rp. 240.000 for 2.

Luckily the flight was not the low cost carrier, which means that we still can adjust the departure and arrival date. Unlike the Idul Fitri trip that we have to let go in August. The Medan - KL - Medan and KL - Singapore - KL flights are booked in August with pretty good deals. However, I will be in my 34 weeks and not sure if I will be able to fly at that time.

Back to the topic. Jakarta indeed is a very nice place to visit. Except the public transport that is not convenience at all. Luckily we stay with Mr.'s aunt and so fortunate that one of her daughter was taking leave from work. So, technically, she's driving us all over the place.

As usual, Dave was very excited to ride on airplane. He asked what is the name of the airlines that we were flying with. We went to Jakarta with Citilink and flew back with Lion Air. He is demanding to fly with airlines that start with B alphabet next time.

Nothing much on the first day. On the second day we went to Mall of Indonesia (MOI) and lets Dave played a bit. Surprisingly, I bumped into Tonton, my Grade 10 classmate that I haven't seen for years. MOI has a great stuffs for children to enjoy.

On the third day, we went to Pasific Place. Here, I met Nat for dinner. Yeah, things are not the same anymore. College life we used to hang out, but we can only met for couple of hours during this visit.
