Keukenhoff, the flower heaven

 i felt like i'm in heaven! well, flower heaven even though there's not much tulips ('cause i'm searching for those in Holland) anymore. it was so magical (what am i talking about?)

by the way, it was really chilly when i got there. i wore a cardigan topped with a jeans jacket and wore a thick scarf too, but i was still freezing. you know what i did wrong? i wore a SANDAL! how stupid i am. well at first i thought it wasn't gonna be that chilly. blame the weather ;p

by the waaay.. i really love the apple pie there. it was so yummy! :9 

at Keukenhoff, i literally go to all the places there. every museum, every park. but i wasn't exhausted, neither was Tante Lianda. maybe because we took a lot of pictures along the way. hehe, 

the museum, especially the decorated flower museum, was lovely. they're really creative with those flowers. they even made a dress with it! i wish i'm that feminine. maybe i'll buy some flowers and decorated my room with some. :) talking about buying things, i am sooooo.. regretting not buying one of the traditional Holland shoes (i forgot what they called there). they were so cute and cheap.

Megamind

 

this movie safe me from boredom at the plane from Dubai to Jakarta. the movie was really really funny! i can't stop laughing and some guy who sat beside me looked at me weirdly. well he may thought i've gone crazy. haha! i love the idea how a villain become a superhero with a crazy idea to kill a superhero, destroy the city, got bored, made a new superhero (who turned out to be a bad person) and actually he has to be the one to stop it with his overly big blue head. ;p

strolling in Volendam

after having enough rest, i went to Volendam (a little tourist town) with Marco. the weather is nice, sun is shining, but a little bit windy. we walked all over the road, and Marco told me all about the history of the houses and i was really impressed by how the houses looked, how the streets are really clean. i want to lived there (i wish! haha)

it was actually fresh water, not salt water! brilliant!

and after strolling around, i took a picture wearing holland traditional costume. :D
my tips, if you ever want to take a picture wearing traditional costume, be sure you find a store which you could take a picture by your own camera too. because many of the stores doesn't allow you to take personal pictures anymore 'cause of some crazy tourist. they only wear the costumes and took a picture (with their own camera) and then just left without even paying.

The Netherlands

yay! my long dream to go abroad is finally came true! i'm so happy! but right now, it was just like a dream, except with photo evidence. ;p
okay. so it was a 12 hours flight from Jakarta to Dubai then to Amsterdam. the long flight was worth it 'cause when i arrived in the airport, i felt really good. haha! i was staying for 4 days in Amsterdam (actually Amstelveen in specific) in my mom's friend. her family's are really really nice to me. i personally adore her sons, Damian and Galvin. they're sooo.. cute. even though they couldn't speak english, but i had fun with them. :)

too bad i didn't take a picturre with Marco (Tante Lianda's husband). he's really nice and intelligent. i like talking to him. :)
