Yes folks, there is no drink called bandung in Bandung, Indonesia, instead it is called Syrup with Milk. There is also no mee bandung anywhere. There is a variety of Baso and many many things are with cheese. I can live there :).
I love the FOOOOOOOOD in Bandung. OMG... where do I begin. My luggage consisted of Indonesian Instant Noodles, Black sauce, coffee, tea(s), Indonesian junk food. *faints*
Weather there was brilliant except for the dust due to the dry season. Shopping there is just mad. If you are for LV and the works, then there will be the place to just rake up a good figure on your credit card. Anyway, I did not have to do all that because I already felt like a million bucks. Taking the public transport was 5000, water was 2000, a meal would cost around 10000.... I must say that my math improved when I was there. :)
I went to see my friend who is studying there as well as teaching the community children English. The Indonesian rich are obscenely rich and the Indonesian poor are obscenely poor. An average monthly wage there is about RM250. No wonder Indonesians flock here to earn the RM150 extra.
Anyway, it is good to be home. Miss the roti bakar there....it is the best in the world. Ask me why the next time you see me. :D

Bandung sounds like a beautiful place for a holiday... glad you enjoyed it. I'm enjoying my holiday now ;-)
It's 1.00am and I'm not home yet. In those days this would have been normal. But nowadays, in our 30s, 'tis something big to be awake at this hour without worrying whether can get up or not for work!
A cutie beckons. One will stop here.
XOXOXO
