A Pond at a Restaurant

Last Sunday, we had lunch at this restaurant (Warung Ampera -Bandung, West Java, Indonesia) to celebrate my father’s birthday. It’s a kind of eating place that I recommend you to visit. The food, the prices, and the atmosphere are all nice. There are several fish ponds there, but I only captured one.

On a Bride’s House

Last weekend we (I, my husband and my father) visited Bandung (West Java, Indonesia) to attend a cousin’s wedding. We reached my aunt’s house in Friday afternoon. A religious and traditional ceremony had been held before. I missed attending the ceremonies before the wedding, but I still can capture the blue theme decoration in the bride’s house.

In the next day, Saturday morning, the marriage vows were said by the bride and the groom at the same house. The wedding reception/party was held later at a different place. I’ll share the blue things on my cousin’s wedding reception next week.

We spent another night in my brother’s house. On Sunday, since it’s my father’s birthday, we celebrated it by eating out in a special eating place.

Singing with a Snake

Since Friday, I’m still out of town to attend my cousin’s wedding. There were things that weren’t going as planned before; but in general, the wedding ceremony was going well.

In a wedding reception, it’s very common to see wedding singers and guests can watch their performance. But today, in my cousin’s wedding party, this young girl wasn’t only just singing; she sang and played with a snake!

Couple's Corner : Things that Annoy Him

Before I wrote this post, I asked my hubby first, which my manners that will annoy him so much.

First. He said that he doesn’t like when he asks me questions or starts a conversation; but I don’t take and receive it seriously. I just answer his question but my mind can be in other place. Sometimes I do this on purpose; just to annoy him, hahaha.

Second. I can be naughty once in a while. In fact, I’ve ever done this several times. When he’s in the bathroom, especially in the night, I’ll put off the bathroom light. I like his reaction: he’ll suddenly scream loudly!

Third. When we’re in the middle of discussing about any thing, sometimes disagreement occurs and one of us will talk in higher tones. He will be annoyed if this situation makes me say,”Diiih…you’re angry!” in high tone as well.

My Happy Feet

This week is a busy one. My SIL came from another town last Monday and I have tight schedules every day. My brother and niece will also come here next Thursday. That’s why I have no enough time to visit your wonderful blogs. Thanks to all my visitors, I’ll try to visit you all back, but later.

Last Sunday, we (I, my husband and father) traveled to Mount Pancar hot water baths (Karangtengah Village, District Babakan Madang, Sentul Bogor, West Java, Indonesia). Actually it’s not far from our home, but some parts of the road are very bad, my husband must drive very slowly and carefully.

We decided to rent a family room. My father can’t walk up and down through steep stairs anymore. It will make him so tired. To reach free hot water ponds at Gunung Pancar hot water baths, there’s no other way, you must walk down through the stairs. The cost of renting a family room is Rp 100.000,- (about $12) per hour.

That day, my feet were so happy!
