this year, 2012, i'm 31 years old.... and i'm still single.
But this year, i had a fun fun journey. though i'm not traveled outside the country, i had a lot of fun.
This year Birthday, i decided to go out from my routines, routines that make me stressed.
Let me tell you the story, on the last day of May 2012, i decided to go some where.
that morning, i got up and went to the Gambir Train station and bought a ticket to Cirebon.
DAY 1 ( Thursday 31 May 2012, My Special day)
Yes, i'm going to Cirebon for escape, the train departed at 9.00 AM and arrived in cirebon at 11.50 AM.
at that time i have no idea where to stay, it is impossible to stay at my uncle's house, so decided to stay at the hotel.
and i remembered Gani, he is the Head of Cirebon Office and really nice to me, so with no intention i decided to let him know that i'm going to cirebon for some family matters.
and surprised, he really welcomed me and he will drove me around cirebon, with that offered, i cannot refused. just said Alhamdulillah, perhaps that was the Gift from God, to make me pleased for that special day.
so he pick me up arround 12.00 at the Cirebon's train station and walked with me to find a hotel to stay.
i'm staying at the Cirebon Grage Hotel & Spa, but for the last 2 day, i'm staying in Cirebon, Gani always escorted me where ever i want to go..... #He's really nice#
after check in at hotel, i'm going to Gani's Office and had a light lunch with him near the office, we had a light lunch at Kopitiam. after that we had to go back to his office cause he had an urgent thing to do. After 2 hours in his office at 4.00 PM, we finally going around cirebon citytour, we called it.
We had a late lunch in Amarta Empal Gentong at Plered, Cirebon and afte that we going to see EB kampung Batik at Trusmi Village in Plered.
After shopping around and i'm clueless where else to go, so we decide to go back to the hotel to change and ready for dinner, and Gani would pick me up at 7.00 PM.
i had no idea where Gani would take me to dinner that night, he just mention that we will had a dinner in Balongan, which s one hour from Cirebon.
and he pick me up at 7.00 PM that night, and i'm ready for the Dinner.
so he bring me to the Mina Ayu Restourant at the Beach near Balongan Indramayu, and we had a seafood dinner. He ordered Fish Kanang Grilled, Shrimp Grilled and grilled squid, we had to finish 1,4 Kg of Grilled Kanang Fish.
I'm having so much fun since it just like my birthday dinner with someone #although not mine yet# but it's feel like he care for me and really pleased me that day, we watching the wave and seeing sea fireflies that glow in green, two fireflies in green lights and one firefly in white lights that was something.
And it was the best Birthday dinner, i ever had. Thank You Gani For making it happen # although he didn't know it was my Birthday# but it really was something to remembered in my whole life.....
And Thanks to ALLAH The Almighty for make it happen, ALHAMDULILLAH....
After dinner at 10.00PM we drove back to Cirebon to get some rest. And he promise me that he would continue to being my companion for tomorrow.
he drove me back to the hotel after dinner at 11.00 PM, and i see something strange in my hotel room , 2016 room at grage hotel, since i could get the twin bed, so a have to accept it and it was really spacious for me alone. i found a pack of cookies in my bed, since i remembered that when i left the room there was no cookies, i'm getting freak out and reported it to Gani, and he asked me to tell the reception for what had happen. i kind of freak out since i'm all alone and in the hotel #my mind began to wondered#
And the receptionist told me, it was just a welcome cookies, but i afraid so i dumped it to the trash.
Gani told me to lock the door and get some rest.
The picture above was the room i've been stayed
DAY 2 ( Friday, 01 June 2012)
After get some rest, i woke up and i having a blast after last night even there were not any chemistry with Gani but Alhmdulillah, be gratefull for what it is...
since i'm in Cirebon, it such a waste that i'm not visiting my Uncle's house and his family. I told Gani that he must accompany me to had a breakfast at the hotel. So today he come to the hotel at 08.00 AM and accompany me for breakfast.
he asked me, what was my plan for today, i told him that i would like to go to see my uncle and going back to jakarta with 02.00 PM Train "argo Jati'.
i know today was friday and it would be a short day, cause moslem men should pray to the Masjid.
once again, he make me a surprise, that he would skip to the offices to accompany me until i got on the train #how sweet he is :) #
after breakfast, i have bought some cakes for my uncle and visited him and his family, but i'm not to long in his house because Gani waited me in the car and i had to make an excuse to my uncle that my Boss waited for me in the car and had to go back to the office.
we continued our citytour and we stopped at Nasi jamblang Pelabuhan, we eat early lunch that day.
while we eat, Gani mention what if me going to bandung and we go to the trans studio bandung. after i think about, well why not, though tomorrow already weekend, and he promise me to accompany me again in bandung.
so, that i day, my planned had change and i have to sell my ticket to the train station, one hour before. and accompany gani to go to bandung for about 4 hour journey between Cirebon and Bandung.
while waited Gani Praying in the Masjid At-taqwa Cirebon, i waited in the car and had to call Mom for blessing cause my journey was continue to other city.
after praying, we continue our journey to the Bandung City and that was the longest journey with Gani. passing through Sumedang, cadas pangeran. while Gani still working through his mobile phone and so am i.
and we arrive in bandung at 07.00 PM and the hardest thing was seeking for the hotel just for one night.
we had to call and going door to door hotel near Dago.
and we totally tired and decided to eat first and continue later. We ate dinner at Mie Dago and it was delicious noddle and batagor but cause i haven't had a hotel, make me tired so Gani gave me suggestion to look at the hotel near his university, that is Catholic University of parahyangan, in Ciumbuleit.
we go to PADMA Hotel and looked for empty room but the rate is to expensive to a night and for me alone. the room rate is 1,5 million so i have to called off and looked for the cheaper one.
luckily we found a guest house that not to expensive only 400rb per night, cause i'm already tired and also Gani, i take the room and Gani escort me to the room for final inspection makes sure it is alright.
that night i'm afraid to sleep in that room, woke up every hour, hearing sound.
but Alhamdulillah it safe....
DAY 3 (Saturday, 02 June 2012)
Today i wake up happy, but still think about it would be wonderful if me and my husband were on this trip, i wouldn't be alone in the strange hotel....
Still Gani would like to accompany me today, he picked me up at 9.00 AM, and asked me where i would go around bandung. Since we already tired up last night after a long journey from cirebon to bandung. i didn't want to go to trans studio anymore. it feels tired...
so we decide to have a fun and relax jorney, in the morning we ate in Rasa Bakery in Bandung City.
while we were there, i had an idea to go to lembang or tangkuban perahu mountain. And the feeling was right, it was an memorable journey for me. passing through the forest and heading to the mountain.
i'm haaaappyyyyyyyyyyy..........................
it's beyond anything i could imagine.
after we go to tangkuban perahu mountain, we go to tahu susu lembang, and having lunch kupat tahu.
and i had a dejavu, i thought already being here with some one....
next we continue the ride to see kampung daun and next stop without any plan we go to Kampung Gajah.
and we having so much fun there, just stop being an adult today and ride 4D ride on Extrem Roller Coaster with Gani. we're totally having fun there...
after satisfied in kampung gajah, we headed back to the city for me to going home with travel and looking for dinner.
He bring me to his favorite cafe " POTLUCK" and we ate there for dinner, i ordered chicken cordon bleu and he order beef mushroom. we found a face karikartun there and a wishing pod in front the cafe
he asked me to make a wish and throw some coins in the pod.
he also helped me out to find a travel transportation to go back to bekasi. Alhamdulillah, we found X-Trans near Cihampelas, at 9.00 PM
so in that place my journey with Gani have to end....
i'm very thankful to Gani to make this 3 day Journey means so much fun and memorable...
a minute before i get on the car travel, we said goodbye to each other and holding our hand a bit quiet long, cause this had to end. But i hope, it will be next time and the time will right for both of us...
And i had a simple wish, that i found my soulmate and my partner of life in gani #pray...#
Having 3 day with Gani in Fun Fun Journey......
