Traveling in fasting month, August 2011

In my whole travel and work experience, this year's fasting month is the most frequent of me going on trips.
Of course, I prefer to stay in Jakarta during fasting month. Lots of consideration why I prefer to stay.
Last year, in August 2010, I traveled to Penang for SEA O.R. Nurse meeting.
This month:
- Went to Yogya on August 2-4, 2011
- Went to Singapore for leadership training, August 17-19, 2011

I pray that I'm given the strength to undergo the trips.

A family trip to Pelabuhan Ratu.
Departed from Jakarta on Dec 31, 2010 dawn, 5.30AM to avoid stuck in traffic jam

Stayed at Bunga Ayu Resort. When we checked the rate a couple of months ago, the family room was only IDR 350,000. But at the beginning of December, it was increased and they only offered New Year package, 3 days 2 nights: IDR 1,500,000 !

Cousin's wedding in Surabaya, Dec 5-7 2010

It was considered a big family gathering when my cousin planned to get married in Surabaya, where his fiance comes from.
We were provided airplane tickets to Surabaya. There were eight of us departed from Jakarta on Dec 5, 2010. We decided to take my niece, Rara, to accompany me. She's just five years old, this will be her good opportunity to travel, away from her mom (my sister).

December 5, 2010



We used Lion Air. What do you know, the plane was delayed for 1 hour. And we experienced bad thing, because the seats were not enough for the passengers. WEIRD!!!!
Most of passengers were not seated accordingly. Even my uncle and my cousin had to go out of the plane, and used another flight!

At Soekarno-Hatta Airport, departing

Our flights were only 10 minutes apart, so we were fine. My uncle rented two Kijang Innovas for us.
Arrived at Juanda Airport
We went to visit the bride family first before we went to hotel. We stayed in Quds Royal Hotel, in Tanjung Perak area.
Checking in

Rara is so excited. She's going to bed
