Pacific Place Mall

Jakarta has new mall! Pacific Place mall is finally open. It's located just in front of my office, makes it very convenient for us to look for foods, stuffs, or just catch a movie. Updates: It also has Blitz Gamesphere! An XBOX 360 and Nintendo Wii game center! Surely catch my attention to burn my time after office hours.

'Tiup Lilinnya Tiup Lilinnya'

Rafif blew the Birthday candles on his 6th birthday party in Tamani restaurant, Kemang.

The Birthday Boy

Rafif posed in front of his birthday cake. He is 6 years old now. Time flies so fast.

Sunday Aikido Ritual

My Sunday morning is now reserved to take Rafif come to his Aikido class. Held in my complex's pool area, hopefully this class will boost Rafif's confidence in dealing with others. He seems to enjoy it very much as well (dreaming to become the next Naruto or Aang Avatar ;-))

Rest Area Menjamur

Dampak dari dibukanya jalan tol Purbaleunyi adalah menjamurnya Rest Area di sepanjang jalan tol. Seperti di Km 66 ini

What Else Is New?

Sigh, we lost again. Nothing new for us, including this scene: fans leaving the stadium early hopelessly. Ganti Nurdin Halid! Lho?

Budi Scores!

The stadium eruptes when Budi Sudarsono converted the spot kick. We're still trailing by 1 though (1-2)

Front Row View

Perfect seating inside the stadium. Better than High Def television. Well, sans the instant replay and commentary of course.

PSSI Loyal Fans

Me and my long time friend, Ubai, in front Gelora Bung Karno Senayan, shortly before watching World Cup match qualifying match between Indonesia vs Syria. Well, even though our country never won anything significant and always be on the one who collects the ball from the net, we still love them. Ah, crap.

Liburan Sudah Selesai, Back to Real Life...

Tim RBS di depan pesawat Lion Air Boeing 737-900 ER, yang membawa kita pulang ke Jakarta, kembali ke rutinitas biasa, after a good weekend break. Berikutnya kemana kita? Bandung? Padang? Atau Bangkok? 
PS: Anung kok nggak keliatan? Padahal yang moto Alin? ANSWER: lha itu kaos nya aja yang keliatan di sebelah kiri. Teganya Alin! Hehehe..

Saya dan Artefak Budaya

Lha ini dia si Anung. Karena enggak kefoto sebelumnya, jadi minta difoto lagi. Nggak papa deh, kan teman saya ini salah satu artefak budaya yang patut dilestarikan.. Huehehe..

Bebek Bengil

Hanny, Cika, Alin dan Richard foto bersama di Bebek Bengil, restoran paling terkenal di Ubud.

Ubud Paddy Field

Tim RBS mejeng bareng di pematang sawah di sekitaran Ubud. Berwisata sambil menilik peluang investasi... Hehehe.. Gimana jadi nggak 14 are nya? ;-)

Midnight Supper and Coffee

Kata Anung, ngapain ke Bali kalau cuman tidur? Jam 12 malam kita keluar lagi cari makanan dan tempat ngopi. Setelah berjuang melewati kemacetan di sekitar Kuta Square, akhirnya kita ngopi dan makan di off-street cafe alias emperan. Lumayan nikmat dan hemat, lha semua kopi dan makanan kita bertujuh hanya seharga 1 gelas Frappucinno di Starbucks!

Dinner in Jimbaran

After exhausting day of golf, we really had good dinner in Jimbaran. Even better, Cika's parents settled all bills. Makasih om, tante! ;-)

36 Holes

We did it! Played 36 holes in one day. Hasrat bermain golf benar-benar terpuaskan walaupun last 2 holes were played in almost total darkness. From left to right: IBeN, Agung, Anung, and Willy.

Teeing Off in Nusa Dua

Due to time constraint, we cancelled our plan to play in Nirwana. Instead, we played in Nusa Dua. A good decision apparently . Anung posed while Agung teeing off on the background.

Dreamland on the Backdrop

New Kuta Golf in Pecatu, The newest course in Bali offers challenging golf experience plus beautiful surrounding scenery. As seen on the picture, I posed in front of 14th tee box which overlook the breath taking view of Dreamland beach.

Golf in Pecatu

Para golfers yang berambisi untuk bermain 36 holes dalam sehari berfoto di tee hole pertama New Kuta Golf di Pecatu, Bali.

God of Gambler

The night is still young. We decided to hop into 'Hu U', another happening place in Bali. Playing card game, 'Big Two' (Cao Tai Tie), we ridiculously played while the other visitors busted their moves on the dance floor. We had lots of fun though. Richard proved to be the God of Gambler, sweeping past all of us, claiming a hefty paycheck, 28 thousands rupiah. Barely enough to pay all of us a cheap McDonald ice cream cone :-)

Nasi Pedes Top

Walaupun dari sisi tempat, tujuan makan malam kita, 'Nasi Pedes Ibu Andika' kebanting abis dibanding Ku De Ta, tapi rasa masakannya benar benar kelas atas. Luar biasa!

Cloudy Sunset at Ku De Ta

Ku De Ta, one of the most popular place in Bali, did not disappoint us, even though all we can see is cloudy sunset.

Kepiting Super Yang Uenaaak

Perut kosong karena tidak disuguhi makanan di pesawat terpuaskan dengan Kepiting Super yang super enaaak.

Sponsored by Simpati Ekstra

Inilah transportasi kita selama di Bali. Thanks to Telkomsel Simpati Ekstra yang menyediakan satu buah Kijang Innova untuk berjalan jalan di Pulau Dewata.

Tim RBS Tiba di Bali

Tim RBS (Rekreasi Bali Sparingga) tiba di airport Ngurah Rai. The adventure begins!

Trusted Companion

My iPod, trusted companion for a boring flight like what I currently take to Bali.

Rekreasi Bali Sparingga (RBS)

After visiting Bali many times this year for business trips, finally I go to Bali for pleasure with my friends from "Arisan Sparingga" group. Unfortunately Elok can't join us this time. She cancelled in last minute due to business commitment. Posed in airport restaurant shortly before boarding to the plane. In light of recent news at my workplace, we call this trip as RBS (Rekreasi Bali Sparingga).. jayus ya?
