Mountanious New Year

The pictures..

And the stories..

Last day of 2009, woke up at 6am and left at 7 to avoid traffic jam, and thank God, waking up too early led to being able to sleep in the car! Woo-hoo it cut a lot of highway. I didn't know how long I fell asleep but we were about to enter the city when I woke up. Paris van Java here we come!

And we're lost in Bandung hahahahahaha. After about 30 minutes of asking the locals and turning here and there, we finally found our way to Lembang.

Anyway, it's fun, accidental city sightseeing :)

Lucu yahh namanya Toko Persegi. Ntar cabangnya Toko Lingkaran dan Toko Jajar Genjang.

Up and up and up we reached the hotel, dropped our stuff, and left to find a nearby authentic Sundanese restaurant, and I'm telling you it was the best Nasi Timbel Ayam Bakar I've ever had so far!!!!

And at night, we prayed together as a family to thank God for 2009, and for His blessings for 2010. Lembang is one of the popular spot for people, especially from Jakarta, to celebrate new year, so the fireworks were pretty everywhere :)))

Btw, Opera van Java that night was hilarious! I remember watching Harry Potter 4 on TV on last year's NYE, this year's was Spiderman 3.
And one of the highlights of this new year trip was the Tangkuban Parahu!!! Yay thanks God!

I remember being a child watching a music video of..err.. Maissy? the cilukba muuuuach girl? or is it Chikita Meidy's? Hehehehehhee ---- but what I remember is the setting really captured my eyes, made a little girl wondered if there's a place like that in Indonesia, and I learned it's the Tangkuban Perahu, heard of Sangkuriang in elementary school, found my lil'bro's photos when my aunt took him there, I was finally there! :) -padahal ga jauh2 amat sih dari Jakarta hahahha-

And...I love this road!!!! Surrounded by tall trees, it reminded me of Hollywood 'forest-Chuck Norris' movies hahahahaha, I really felt like I was in American Mountain, I felt like I was in the scene!
Oh this one is really Indonesia.

John 10 : 10b

I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

***Tahun 2010 adalah tahun pemulihan dan kelimpahan, amin!***

Yohanes 10 : 10b

Aku datang, supaya mereka mempunyai hidup, dan mempunyainya dalam segala kelimpahan.
