Day # 5, Thursday, walking in Yogyakarta
I couldn’t sleep at night but I was still rested the next day. Maybe vacation is good for me? 🙂
Super breakfast was served! I would say, even better than the one in Jakarta, at Aston. But why do they leave the lids to the heated pans open? Food does get cold also in a warm country like Indonesia!
I made IRL study of traffic and had relaxing 15 minutes at the pool. I forced myself to an hour of pool time. I need the sun! I went back to the mall and got the glasses. I would have died if I had such glasses, Lacoste brand, when I was younger! Now I don’t care. Maybe because I don’t see the glasses myself… only through the glass!
I went into this small and narrow path of small stores where they sold many different kind of fabrics. Here I thought I was robbed because some smaller money was missing. I worried all afternoon because of that and also thought, it was strange my phone was still in my pocket. It later turned out I had put the money in a different pocket!
View from the room! Well… I didn’t stay here to look at this view!
This is some kind of famous monument and according to the hotel “top 5 must see” it’s worth looking at, I later found out. It’s a 1:15 minute walk from the hotel…
In case of fire, really impressive! Indonesians know “how to”! Sometimes…!
Pooltime.
Public transportation.
Here I was robbed and it took away all the fun for the rest of the afternoon… Until I found the money in another pocket… Aahhh!! (I know… I have so much money it’s difficult to keep track of all! Haha!)
Me and Jessica, friend / guide, having lunch in a restaurant owned by the son of the king or something. Not at all fancy in any way. I had the last cold beer, the local Bintang beer served in a cold glass. The guests arriving after us left because they had no more beer… (Crazy staff! Why didn’t they just go and get some somewhere??)
Journey highlights: In the mall, pupils performed and they were so good!! I dances so much and I absolutely loved it! One of the most fun moments on the journey!
