Bandung Trip Report Day 3

Day Travel Wednesday 15 March 2012

7.45am  Same as the day before we left early for another volcano craters called Kawah Putih just to avoid congestion. Journey took us about 2 hours. The scenery along the journey was beautiful as the area was surrounded by few mountains. Village activities was mainly agricultural where plantations can be seen everywhere even in a frontyard of everyhouse.

9.45am  Reached the kawah putih. Another freezing moments here as the area was still surrounded by fog and not to mentioned strong wind. Unlike Tangkuban Perahu, there were no peddlers at this place and we did enjoy our moments peacefully. It was not an active volcano and the craters has transformed into a lake. A few photo and video shots and thats it, headed back. Bought a fresh strawberry at market near the entrance before we hit the road again.

11.00am  The journey return to Bandung city was rather quick one. We straight went to Pasar Baru. The trafic to this place was heavily congested at this hour. Even the car park was virtually full. We ended parking almost to the top floor of the 6th storey building. Again the place was crowded with malaysians. Nothing much spended here, I did bought 2 sets of kain baju melayu which was quite cheap there, looking at its quality. Had a delicious ayam penyet & jus durian belanda for lunch there. After solat zohor, we left the place.

3.30pm  Arrived at Rumah Mode at Jalan Setiabudi, more shopping.

6.30pm Went to Jalan Riau again, dropped at The Secret FO. Nothing interesting. Then to the FO opposite of the road, Rich&Famous FO. I found this FO to be one of FO that offer many selections of apparell beside Rumah Mode, Cascade, Blossom, & Central Brand Outlet. A worthy FO to check out, I think.

7.30pm Repeated our shopping spree at Cascade, a quick one. Then The Stamp FO pulak.

8.30pm Again, specifically requested by Irsyad, we had our dinner at McDonald at Jalan Setiabudi. These places seems very close to each other if you travel at night, thus shorter time.

9.00pm Reached the hotel, we thanked our supir for his excellence services and paid him some tips as a token of appreciation. Thank you again to Pak Puwardi from Mulia Rental.
