Funny start for this trip.
Soo checked in airasia counter, went to the gate A4! I said I thought I saw A7 gate in the airasia check in counter, but no…. the gate info screen near the gate written A4.
Ok… So went to A4 gate. Waiting there, 3 of us eating 1 litter of ice cream on the valentines’s day 3 singles ladies eating ice cream, making our heart even colder and freezed LOL.
Well anyway, after a while waiting we heard the announcement, Lion air is delay blablabla.. HHmmm lion air?? Our flight was air asia sooo.. wrong gate… then we asked the gate, then he said lemme see the boarding pass?? Oeps its A7!!!! I was right!! Thats me.. when im right nobody believe me :(:P
Run!!! Its 20.15 already, our flight schedule is 20.15!!!!! hahahhaha I would have cried if we miss the flight. Running running running… the A7 gate looked quiet  oeps but phhheewwww its delayed…
Have a rest, continued finishing our ice cream hahhahaha. Then announcement, passenger please get ready to board. Everybody stands up and make line behind the door, next 5 minutes another announcement, “due to blablabla.. please board at A3 gate” wwwwwwwwwhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaatttttttttt???? Hahahhahahah that’s our story with airasia hahahahha

Anyway.. safely arrive in Bali pass 23.00hrs, went to the Kedin’s Hotel, (link) nice hotel with nice small swimming pool for Rp. 110.000 per nite including breakfast (fan only... no air con, who needs air con? :P wont be sweating sleeping with my 2 soulmates :P LOL)

It was sooo windy and rain a bit, freshened up, then we went dinner at Kubuku and have some drinks!! Happy bday to me!!! Sooo tired after dinner, went to BFC Wednesday nite.. till late then worked on Thursday morn, then straight to the airport. Sooo, went back to the hotel.. and sleep… before we sleep we talked and talked suddenly “ssssssttt” from our neighbor oeps we were too loud in 3am hahahha

15 Feb
Its my bday and no work… off course don’t wanna start my 30 with working hhahahahahha Sooo… Woke up pretty late but not too late for the breakfast, latest served at 11.30 :D :P
Freshen up after breakfast (no shower ye.. :P) hahahhaha looks bright outside no rain, swimming in the kuta beach will be great.. but nooppeee really windy sand blow everywhere to our face and body. So we just walked by the Kuta beach then had our lunch at the warung in Seminyak with Iin and Patrick and lil bit shopping :P

Back to our hotel, had a lil swim and have a rest then went to Musro, to see Iin in action, second time seeing the same show but still im amazed how flexible like plastic her body is uuuuhhh.
Sky Garden after, I love that place… We had to pay to enter the 4th floor?? Was not like that last time I was there in Nov 07. I notice the next day that the guy at the entrance will ask the local to pay to enter.
Anyway, I really love Sky Garden.

Note quoted from my FS blog:

Bromo 18-20 Nov
"Thought i would have missed my flight to Surabaya! (bisa harakiri di tempat :P) Arrived at Pavilijoen almost midnite, had a massage in the room then sleep!! Actually I was pretty in doubt to continue my trip to Bromo by myself, yup i was bit afraid to travel by myself n this is my first time (manja dipelihara :P) But when i finally arrived in Cemara Indah hotel and see the view... pphheewww... Good that i didnt let myself pro to my doubt.. :)"

Bali 21-24 Nov
Arrived by midnite after going through a miserable 12hrs bus trip (depart from Probolinggo @11.30am) booked ac bus but 10hrs in economy bus :’( , it was raining and the bus was leaking aaaaaaaaaagggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…. Didn’t have a room booked yet when I got there, went to place I know but there was nobody there to check in :S but finally got a nice room for 40 :) mandi then zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz then started the lazy 4? days in Bali, just sleep, eat, going around, watching movie, playing pool and having some beers off course :P

Lombok 24-28 Nov
What and early bus to Lombok (6am) blleeh… I wonder why only me on that bus :P Slept in the ferry’s deck from padang bai, 1night in Mataram n met Arie n stayed at his house, went to Senggigi then the next morning went to Gili Trawangan! Damn its hot but u really wouldn’t mind the sun when u see the beach. No room booked yet (gw bannget seh!!) walking2 around but didn’t find nice budget room so… had some beers first in the sun and enjoyed the beautiful view then met my friend’s friend had lunch and more beers :P and he helped me get a room and it was nice clean room. Planned for 1 nite only but no way, had to be there more than 1nite. Had dinner (alone :( :P) watched a movie (pulp fiction, finally :P and alone :( :P) hahahhahaha and more beers.
Went snorkeling around the gilis (capek juga yah… :P) and slept early the last nite int the beautiful island though I think it’s too nite life in the night with the cafes and party (wuaduh.. efek2 penuaan yah???hahahahah) But I surely will be back!!!!! Damn!! Thanks Arie telah menemani temanmu yg kurang ajar inih (udah minta jemput, dikasih ayam taliwang and pelecing kangkung uenak bgt, numpang nitip tas, dll) thanks a lot Rie!!! C u in Jakarta n maybe in Lombok again soon! :P And Paul thanks juga, dah bantuin and nemenin di trawangan though baru juga pertama ketemu and dadakan! :) See u in Jakarta soon! :P

Surabaya 28 Nov
Transit here 2times, otw to Bromo (1nite) and otw to Jakarta from Lombok, but the pics was taken when I was otw to Jakarta (long transit time) Well that’s the risk of getting a cheap flight :D It was nice to walking around there or take becak!!! :)
