The Trip

So excited! My first trip to Surabaya :D Thanks to Ellen for having her wedding ceremony at Surabaya. As one of her bridesmaid, automatic compliment flight to Surbaya HOHOHO. Andy (another cousin of mine) and I flew out first with Ellen's family. Cos we have to be in the rehearsal held 2 days before the wedding. Then the other family members will fly out the next day. Unfortunately the trip started with a delay. Arghhh! Supposed to board the plane by 9am and guess what! The flight was delayed till 2pm. Crappy! How "NICE", Ya right! 0_O' So we waited 5 hours at the airport lounge. Eating, playing cards, watching people passed by and we even play counting to how many Indonesian artist we saw :P Other than that the trip went great.

'greeting from Beefy to start the day:)'

Next morning have wake up early as possible to catch on the breakfast buffet since it closes at 10am. Some of us haven’t even taken our bath yet and we already have to go down to the restaurant. Forgive us for being so euy…:P but what can we do hehehe…

'Andy and his waffle for breakfast'

'other selection for breakfast buffet'

'basket of cereals?'

Afternoon is free. Other than the mother of the bride, who supposed to go for a make up test, the rest can go jalan-jalan (sight seeing). But, eventually it was not a good day to go sight seeing cos it rain heavily outside and we have no transport. So we rested at the hotel. Not long after the organizer called saying he managed to find a transport to drop us at the nearest mall. So we start to move our butt go down to look for the driver. Had our lunch at the mall (crap I forgot what that mall name is)

'Waiting for the food to come'

'Bistik (luncheon meat with eat and veggie top with gravy)'

'Pecel Bebek (fried duck with sambal)'

After lunch we went back to the hotel to greet the rest of the family, which just arrive from Jakarta. (then story continues to the wedding event)

'the next morning tired look, after the wedding. Same restaurant for breakfast'

'coffee'

'toast'

after breakfast we have to get ready to airport and head back to Jakarta.

'December festive season, the Christmas tree in the hotel lobby, with a cooking theme'

'very tall ya?!'

'bye-bye to the hotel we stayed in'

and the trip ends. Though it was just a short visit which mostly occupied by the wedding, but we definitely had a good time.
Thanks to David n Ham2! :)
