Pontianak trip(part II)

The Second day...

Thestories continue on..
where we started from heading towards places around the Pontianak..
again..V would make a quick explain on those photos..




The early morning of the second day~!!

hehe..
ok~V admited..i hate wearing mask!!
_(-.-)_



sigh~
V heard the traffic in Pontianak had no-law-at-all..
If you want to cross the road..
Have to be brave enough..!!
That's what my new met Indo-chinese friend told me~



oh..
Also, she told me that Pontianak was famous for their no-law-traffic~
hahaha




So that day we were brought to have a visit around Pontianak..
and here we came to the aloe-vera farm..
Unfortunately..it did not open that day~!!
_(-.-)_

so the bus went on and brought us to another destination..
until we saw the roadside which got plenty of aloe-vera..
and we stopped by..
_(-.-)_








the biggest aloe-vera I had ever seen!!
some people say..it can used to hit people until fainted..
haha..
_(-.-)_




and it can be drink and eat..
V bought it..but did not get the chance to taste it..
as the time i went back to hotel..
it already spoil~
_(-.-)_
never mind~

but...but.........
my uncle did tasted it~!!
how lucky he is!!


*hmph*




inside the..mamak???

V also don't know what it called~!!
but sure that it's a place to rest and have your drinks..




one of the fish keropok..
haha..
V did not try it..
because the package is a bit oily~
and now V is regret!!





Aloe-vera keropok~
and V did tried this..
it was tasteless~~~~
_(-.-)_

oh.. before we move on..
V spotted something together with dad..
and it is one of dad's favorite..




dad complained that his one is smaller than this..
still asked the owner whether he wanted to sell it or not~
_(-.-)_




Yet, we prepared to leave..
and head towards the next destination..
oh..
of course..the owner did not sell it to dad~ haha
_(-.-)_



and here we were..
arrived at the Equator line of the longitude of 109* 20' 00"..
it was so so cool..
V never expected to stand on the longitude of 00" of earth..!!











see?? see??? seee!!!
V got the certificate to prove that she had arrived there!!
but have to pay to get the certificate~
_(-.-)_
dad also got his~
_(-.-)"_




our next destination~

Visit the Istana Kalimantan Kesultanan Pontianak!!
but we did not manage to go inside because there are local people who were having their wedding ceremony inside..
and we were not allow to go in..
_(-.-)_
sigh..V just wished could witness the process of their wedding ceremony~



this is only the entrance..
haha





along the way..
V saw the kids were playing the marbles..
and took some photos of them..
but this is the nicest one~
the naive smile from the kid..




Istana behind V..





the clearest one among all..
hope you all can see that they are having the ceremony inside..




since we cant go inside to have a look or visit..
so we came out and head toward a market nearby..
and..the result...
V ran back to the bus..!!
have a guess, dreamers...
LOL
_(-.-)_



Soon, we were at the museum..
Oh..the main purpose is..we were going to have lunch in the museum!!
so cool!!!
Eat first..Visit second~!!



The cafeteria where we were having our lunch~!!

right after this..
V had to say sorry because all the photos were forgotten at home..
so..V is trying to get back from GLorz..
_(-.-)_

anyway..describe with words..
Right after the lunch..
V was heading towards the museum to have a visit..
inside there were so many interesting historical things..
which is some part of V's interested to see those antique and to know better of their history.

So..after some visit, we went back to hotel to get some rest.
Until then..
all the aunties and uncle were rushing to buy the famous batik.
_(-.-)_ ...sigh...
and they change the plan..to buy batik!

Anyway, soon we got back to hotel and get some rest
also..bath!!
however, we were told to settle the dinner by ourselves.
Okay..some problems there.
No one is ever there to bring us for dinner~
and we..the outsider who never know where got food to hunt for..
?? _(-.-)_

So, parents and I, plus some friends of dad...
decide to have a walk plus look for some restaurant.
Until then, thanks GOD we found a restaurant run by Indo-Chinese..
that's mean..we don't have to eat those local foods!
yay!! _(-.-)_
but it takes us some time and quite dangerous also by walking at the roadside with plenty of motorcycles riding beside you..
you'll never know when you'll be hit by the motorbikes!
However, it was truly an interesting experience!!
Love it!!

Well, we went back to hotel right after the dinner.
cannot stay too long outside as the air was seriously polluted.
And it was totally an exhausted day.


Anyway..V end up the day just to get into the bed right after V and mum prayed.



..stay tune...

Pontianak trip (part I)

hmmm..
V will make it easier by describing the trip to Pontianak with the pictures.
Easier and Faster..
haha
Let's go!!

oh..please excuse me..
too much self-shooting inside..
LOL


The first day V arrived Pontianak..
V was in the bus..long story of why i am in the bus..



The first building I saw when I reached Indonesia. Right after passing through the Kastam.




This is mostly into more village style compared to others.


Schools..there are so many students inside..





The bus keep give out the warning to the Indonesian.. as the road was so narrow and so many student were walking along the road..



Here..where the Indonesian kids and adults bath, washing clothes and do everything.. don't feel disgusting of it.. this is the life they had been went through..




the houses were so close to the road.. just like they were living at the roadside..
and dad said it was so dangerous that what if the bus had just lost control and crush into the house?
_(-.-)_




V took this photo from the bridge.. those houses by the riverside..




.......till then...
V was fall asleep because of the long routine~
V is tired..
**who take this picture??**



A blurry V..
Anyway..once V opened her eyes..
She was arrived the hotel!!
LOL





And the hotel had provided the service by serving the drinks to every customer who had just arrived there..
how nice it is!!






V was resting while waiting for them to check in the hotel rooms...
It took several minutes..until V almost fall asleep again~
Yet, many things happened in the hotel..until the night came..
V had not aspect the haze could become so serious when the night falls..
and once V had prepared to go out..I was so shocked..
and was almost fainted because of the hard breathe and i had totally forgotten my medic in the room.._(-.-)_
So..everyone was so panic to find a mask for V..
Still..make the worst decision to send me into the hospital..!! _(-.-)_

But, thanks God that one of mum's friends brought extra mask..
and she gave it to me~!!
pheww~




the mask almost kill me for the heat and even-harder-to-breath~!!! _(-.-)_
LOL




hahahaha..
Introduce to you all..V's dad!!
we were losing our patience while waiting for the others!!




and V's mum :)
oh..forget to mention that..
we were prepared to go for shopping at the one and only air-conditioned shopping mall~!! _(-.-)_
** she gonna hit me when she saw this~ :P **




Am so addicted and exciting taking pictures in mask!!
please excuse me~ pemisi (translate: excuse me)
LOL
and V had arrived the mall..yet hunting for the food first!!
Also, we were told to have our dinner there and buy some tidbits..




dad was ordering for his and mum's foods..
and throwing myself beside to order mine.. _(-.-)_
oh well..



darn i live like a billionaire~
LOL



haha..in case..
they couldn't find their customer..V thinks so..
haha
Am still waiting for my order~~!! _(-.-)_




and here comes my food~!!
my comment..too salty..
Think maybe because of the source of their country's water~
hmmm..._(-.-)_




Here come theirs..
their food are much more nicer than mine..
_(-.-)_
never mind then..

Well, after having our dinner and done shopping inside the mall..
we were ready to head back towards the hotel and get some rest!!




Took this while V was waiting for the bus arrival to fetch us..
the air are really polluted~
sigh..
that's why..V had to wear the mask everywhere..
and carrying the medic beside her 24hours..
_(-.-)_


Anyway, luckily the bus driver did not let us waited for too long..
so..We went back to the hotel and get prepared for the early sleep..
but first..

haha~!!
_(-.-)_
