I decided to leave the house in the afternoon because my flight was at 9:00 p.m. and I do not want to drop in Puchong. Arrived at Shah Alam to picked up my sisters, Naili in UiTM and Amni at KGSAAS (Kelab Golf Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah). It's the peak hours on the road during that time because the people were coming back from work. We straight away went to the airport. After Naili drove away with my car (and she kept it in her campus. Way to go girl!), Amni and I straight away went to have our dinner. I was so hungry since I didn't have any food since morning. Amni had fried meehoon and I had chicken rice. The food is just so-so. Biasa-biasa aje laa tapi mahal nak mampus. Biasa laa, any restaurant dok kat airport mesti mahal gilos.
We boarded the plane 20 minutes before the flight. Being excited going to oversea with a plane, I took a few pictures with Amni.

We arrived at 8:55 p.m. (Indonesia time) or one hour later. Polonia airport is a small airport, even smaller than Kota Bharu airport. Kira ok laa, Perak langsung takde airport. Dulu ada laa tapi sekarang tak dibuka untuk commercial flight (/ﾟДﾟ)/. After dealing with the immigration and custom, we straight go to the taxi. Normally, the taxi will charge the foreign passenger about RP60,000. Dalam duit Malaysia dalam RM16.80. Kira mahal jugak laa untuk perjalanan selama 10 minit.
At first, I booked Grand Sakura Hotel but I read one of the blog said that the surrounding of the hotel is quite spooky (lebih kurang macam Lorong Haji Taib) plus it's hard to get food over there. Hence, I booked Madani Hotel instead. Amni and Naili used to stay in Madani Hotel along with my father, aunty Sophia and my cousins; who also recommended this hotel. There is also a food court (حلال) behind the hotel, Kompleks Yuki Simpang Raya (shopping complex) and a convenient store ala-ala 7 Eleven named Indomaret across the hotel. I booked through booking.com and it cost RM128 per night. Breakfast is included and has free WiFi (the most important criteria when I booked any hotel). Cikai mana pun hotel tuh if it has WiFi, I will satisfy enough.

We went back to our room. The live band stopped at 12 midnight. I took a hot shower and after updated my status in Facebook (wajib buat setiap hari), read a few pages of a comic I brought while eating a Kerepek Emping Kusuka (sedap bangat dong!), then I went to sleep.

The first thing I saw before entering the hotel entrance was a lot of board decorated with fake flowers. Actually, the board is for congratulate (wedding or promotion) or as an obituary.
After checked in, we chilled for a few minutes and listen to the live band which was so loud. Then, as planned, Amni and I went to the food court. I didn't know what to order so I ordered bakso. Amni too. This is my first time to taste bakso. Kat Perak memang ada tapi tak terdetik nak rasa. I don't know. Being a Kelantanese and have a taste bud like a kid, I often avoid weird food (in my opinion). As I predicted, the bakso didn't suit my taste, but the soup is alright. I just took a bit of the meat and finished the noodles. The watermelon juice is alright. There are variety of food at the food court; Indonesian, Western, Italian etc. Shisha is also available over there. It seemed the live band performed in front of the food court. Best-best jugak lagu dia. After that, we went to Indomaret to buy some drinks and snacks. Ohh, may I remind you that if you take any drinks, even the mineral water and coffee or tea sachets from the room you will be charged. So, I bought lots of drinks especially tea. I don't know what's so good about Indonesian Teh Botol but my favourite is milk tea in the bottle and marquisa tea.
This was taken during the next day
