bienvenidos a Montevideo!

.....
nine days after new year, we, ibu2 DWP decided to use the last treasures to go for a PP trip to Montevideo, Uruguay. asking Eva y Pak waridin to join the crowd and of course, to be our photographer heheh. Deciding to go on a Buquebus was a brilliant idea,, the ship was as pretty as her name, "Sylvia Ana". 3 hours of cruising (including an hour sleeping)was joyful enough before we hit the land of Uruguay..

la primera dia

This was the first day of 2010.
we woke up (I, woke up) at 9 something.. jump into the shower thinking that we have to be at Rural at 11 o’clock. “honey, do we go to Rural or Obelisco at 2pm?” ..”eumphh.. Ouw..beliiscooh...”. And he back to his sweet dream and woke up at 1.30 (D*#n.. I could’ve just still sleeping like him).
our legs (well, my, legs) felt like torn apart.. sooo tired and pegel,, I couldn’t back to sleep, instead I wash dishes, had breakfast and preparing lunch, wash some clothes and a lil of this and that (oh booy,, u need to thank that women exist in this world huh??!)
finally we are ready to go walking to Obelisco just few blocks from our aptm. He was a bit pissed for this last minute call to take coverage of the Paris-Dakar rally. But OH BOY.. those bicycleta, cuatrocleta, camionetas, autos……….I.N.S.A.N.E!!!! took a survey of the best position to spot the podium.. well,, what can you expect,, those argentinians are huge . Four hours of walking and standing after what we had last nite was a major disadvantage. I feel nausea and desperately need to lay down and call bu Tina for a two hours massage,, huks.. but…you’re so far away ibu…
went home first and straight to the shower to freshen up.. felt tired but excited because tonite we and astrid will watch the premier show of ‘Avatar’ at the Cinemark .. oh I was wondering can I enjoy that…
well… THE MOVIE WAS SUPERGREAT!!! kereen!!! Cakep banget!!! Iam happy.. but irritatingly very very vvery tired… hoahemmm… and sleeeepeee…..

Caramba... 2010!!

Yay..2010!!
Celebrating new year’s eve with bunch of kbri’s chicos. Pak Rudi, Santiago, Tia, Astrid, Rendy, Carla n su hermano,, and ofcourse,, my lovely cutie hubbie. Finally arrived after half hour striving to get a stupid taxi in new year’s eve was not easy as in Jakarta. ‘Olla que tal? Passas por Sinclair 2955? eum,, entre Juncal y cerviqo, gracias!’ Phiuhhhh…. Wasn’t funny at all if we din get a ride after cooking half hour of sauté beef with champignon, vegetables and oyster sauce.. and we din even get to the place!! Alhamdulillah 
They are barbequing the Indonesian satay at the balcony.. apparently they also just started to cook at this (almost) 11 pm! Mmmm… the smell was sooo…. Satay in Puncaak!!! Dunno the secret ingredients Pak Rudy had in all those mouth watering satay.. yummm..
I was pretty intense that nite since I lost my video of fire works on Christmas Eve at Parque de Recoleta.. and swear to myself I will get one TONITE. Anticipating every minute went by,, coz we need to run to Puerto Madero to catch the biggest fire work in Buenos Aires. OMG,, the dinner was finally ready at…. ..11.45pm!!! and that means… no fireworks dear  ….and there we were.. enjoying the delicious satay, wok vegetables and my cooking .. yummy umm… ennnaakkkk!!!!
11.59.59………FELIZ ANOOO!!!! SALUUUDD!!!! Toast with aqua sin gas hehe… met taun baru guyyssss 

We walked to Libertador and Bullrich and wherever it needed to get as close as it can get to fireworks.. but shame on us… pas uda deket.. ehh abis haha… myuter myuter finally stranded in this street of Scalabrini Ortis y J Luis Borges.. and heading to local bars that filled with drunk people… tired… we sat in a small park under the big trees.. and Rendy, Carla y su hermano came to join the last fun.

...HAH!! FINALLY!! I GOT MY NEW YEAR’S EVE FIRE WORKS!!!! right above my head and the trees they sparkled beautifully for 5 minutes! Iam so happy!!... but why oh why… I forgot to switch on my video cam.. huk...
...
Going back to Pak Rudi's apt with Rendy’s car (Thank God) ngumpul ngumpul bentar and finally going home with –again- Rendy,,, step down at Coronel Diaz and took a 3 am taxi and heading home…. Hoahemmmm… what a nite...
