Saturday, 26 March.

With me as the driver, we drove to the airport to pick up Cil, whom had just arrived from a 3-day trip to Kuala Lumpur. It was the first time I had use of my Indonesian driving licence.

And then, with Cil as the driver this time, we went directly to TMII to attend Made & Iin’s wedding reception. We stayed an hour or so.

A quick trip on the TMII cable car before the 3 of us returned home, with a stop at Cibubur first.

A day trip to Bogor.

We took a taxi to Manggarai train station, and a train to Bogor, at around 10:00. A one hour train ride. We then walked to Kebon Raya Bogor, the botanical gardens, and spent the day there. Dinner at PH, Botani Square, afterwards.

And finally train back to Manggarai around 18:15, which again took one hour. From the train station, we walked back to the Bakrie world at Taman Rasuna through tiny alleys (kampung). It took an hour.

We picked up Cil at the airport in the afternoon, whom had just returned from a 11-day tour around Egypt, Israel, and Jordan. From the airport, we went straight to Tony Roma’s at the UOB Plaza, for a meal.

I re-assembled my laptop in the evening. The evening before, I had stripped it to check how it looks like inside, and to blow dust from it. The laptop is now 3 years old.
