I woke up at around 6:00 in the morning (28/04/2006), 30 minutes after the alarm rang, after a nice long sleep on a king-sized bed, I waited for my colleague until about 7:15 and went to breakfast. Typical of an mid range Indonesian hotel they had fried rice, fried noodles and chicken porridge, I had 2 out of 3 and a cup of milk tea. We checked out from the hotel at 7:45 and I went to my school/international exhibition while my colleagues went to the office.
The exhibition was a little less than organized and when I thought it couldn't get any worse a representative of the Croatian embassy was scheduled to speak about the importance of Indonesian and Croatian economic and relationship for the next half an hour, the person couldn't speak English very well not like it matters since most people in the exhibition weren't listening anyway. An hour later they had a talk show about "Asian fashionism" the way the MC pronounced it it sounded like "Asian fascism", the topic was good some of the speakers were right on the money when they talk about fashion habits in Indonesia and how most Indonesian teenagers follows overseas trend I found the whole topic rather interesting but since our booth was as crowded as a graveyard on a rainy day I decided to pack up and leave at 13:00 which we did. We had lunch half an hour later and went back to the office to pick mine and my colleague's bag it wasn't long after we left when the office called to inform us that someone had left a bag, I knew it wasn't mine nor the GM's so we had to double back, pick the bag up go back out, unsurprisingly the driver asked for some money for petrol, we got out of Bandung at 14:30 and arrive in Jakarta at 17:30....with no pictures of Gedung Sate.
