So! I'm back! After neglecting this blog for two months (sorry!). I just came back from my short escape this early December. It was spontaneous, right after I got email from my boss that we will have meeting in Surabaya. I suddenly think, why not go to Bandung after meeting. Haha! And then I ask my boss to divert my flight home to Bandung, and he approved it.
And the journey begin. It was the right time, because my best friend, Reni, just resign from his office so she have time to hangout with me. This is my first time landing in Husein Sastranegara Airport in Bandung, and it was ok (not like I always thought that it will be scary, because the airport is small and the runway is short enough, hehe!). Reni's employee (yes! she have some people work for her workshop) came and pick me up.
Arriving at Reni's place, this big monkey greeting me, hehe! Nothing really change with him, but Reni! She now even look more skinny than me (envy!) Hehe.
Day one in Bandung, I go shopping alone, because it's Reni last day at work. So, she needs more time to say goodbye with her co-workers. The next day, she took me to Garut!
We start the journey alittle bit late, we plan to leave earlier but Mang Sloed (Reni's friend) can't pick us up ealier. So we leave aroung 10am. It was fun way to Garut. I've been to Garut once, but not exploring the city. As you can see, green, mountains and rice field, so peaceful.
Then we stop for lunch at Padang Restaurant. The wind blow really strong and makes the small plant infront of the restaurant fell down right when I about to enter the restaurant (Haha! lucky it's not fell on me!). I think it was to early to have lunch, why? Because not all the menu ready. Haha! So we just got spicy chiken with veggies, instead Rendang (-_-!). Nom nom, so yumm!
After finish our lunch we continue our journey. At first Mang Sloed notice that we took the wrong turn, so we go back. They way back was full with trouble, stuck in traffic, tree fell down on the street. Haha! We finally back in the city, and guess what, we got lost! Haha! We ask to the local how to get to Darajat pass. Even one old man write down a map for us. How stupid, right after we got the map for that oldman, we just notice why don't we use GPS on our phone (Haha! So stupid!).
After about three hours playing around, it's time to go home. The view on the way home also nice. Sorry for blurry pictures, because Mang Sloed drive really fast.
The journey ending as the sun goes down. Beautiful sunset, which I can't capture, lol. Hope to see you again Garut!
speak soon,
Ninu
