Sai Gon #2: The City Tour

Berbekal pengalaman semalam, akhirnya kami menyewa motor didekat hotel. Dengan 8usd seharian.

Rencana jalan hari ini adalah city tour jadi kita akan mengunjungi war remenants museum-reunification palace-notredame, dll.

War Remenants Museum
Intinya museum sisa perang vietnam-amerika. Isinya, yah tank, senjata, blablabla. Boring. Honestly ya si Muka Lebar duduk ditaman, alesannya capek-pdhl tempat pertama yg dikunjungi. Nunggu si Kaki Berbulu muterin halaman yg penuh mesin2 yg ga jelas. Masuk ke museum yang merupakan bangunan berlantai 3. Lantai 1 adalah propoganda. Dukungan seluruh dunia untuk vietnam atas serangan milites USA. Termasuk ada peta hubungan diplomatik (ada endonesah loh tapi gak lngs stlh kita merdeka menjalin hub diplomatik) eniwei baidewei, eike boring parah lah disini, karena isinya poster dan foto demo doang. Ada surat nyurat juga.

Lantai 2 bagian paling mengerikan, ini yg bikin vietnam government. Isinya foto2 laporan apa yg amerika lakukan during the war. Sisanya foto2 akibat perang. Esp bagian foto2 korban chemical weapon. Agent Orange, blue, green, dkk. as we know agent orange terkenal krn paling destruktif. Dan gak tega bok gue melihat korban akibat si agent orenge ini. Akhirnya gue keluar. Sedih bgt.

Lantai 3 ulasan vietnam war, kali ini dr sisi amerika. Foto2 dan cover story dari kantor berita amerika termasuk korban agent orange, orang amerika yg saat itu di Vietnam kena juga. Sedih lah.
Setelah itu museum ditutup untuk lunch. Dan kita diusirin pdhl eike kebelet bokeerr. Akhirnya, kita melanjutkan perjalanan ke reunification palace, karena masih tutup, kita memutuskan untuk ke Quan An Ngon 38 yg letaknya didepan si palace.

Quan An Ngon 38, itu kaya pujasera, semua makanan khas Vietnam ada disini. Sayangnya fresh spring roll-nya pork. Jd kita gak pesan, kita makan sebagai pembuka, semacam kue kanji dg udang dan ebi, rasanya aneh.
Main dishnya, karena salah paham *salah paham loh ya bukan sengaja* Jadilah kita pesan, duck congee (bubur bebek), crab fried rice, bihun goreng, dan cumi bakar special. Yang semuanya (as i said previously on hanoi lunch experience) porsinya gedeee dan banyak! Bubur bebek pesanan si Kaki Berbulu enakk! Si bihun biasa saja. Setelah kenyang, kami memikirkan strategi menghabiskan nasgor dan cumi, dan ternyata crab fried ricenya itu eeeeenaaakkk bgt! Begitu pula cuminya, dan karena kenyang luar biasa, akhirnya dibungkus deh nasgor dan cuminya.

Reunification Palace
Boring part 2. Museum isinya istana presiden vietnam selatan-Sai Gon, istana ya gitu deh isinya. Katanya posisinya gak bagus feng sui nya jd kalah perang, trus posisinya tusuk sate. Oke .

Sorean, kita ke vincom center, mall yg lumayan bagus dan parkir disitu dan jalan kaki ke orpra house, committee building, post office dan tak lupa ke notredame. Di depan Notredame ada jualan jajan, paper rice, pake daun bawang dan telor puyuh dibakar di arang. Rasanya bak opak tipis. Gak enak. Weks.

Setelah foto2 di tempat terkenal, pulang. Dinner kita makan nasgor dan cumi bungkusan semalam. Tak lupa malamnya beli tiket buat half day tour ke chuchi tunnel. We can't wait for tommorrow!

Finally it's on

Well, I have been waiting to live on my own. Decorating my own place... Too much to tell, we'll talk about this later, let's get straight to the point.

According to my plan I will have a grey theme room. It's edgy, modern simple futuristic, anyhow, by the time I moved here my curtain was not ready.

Since we can't live without sun light blocker, the curtain provider give us a substitute curtain, which is not the color we want, arrghdistrubinglyugly, gold and based on my artisty value, I better put the
flag as my curtain (as si Kaki Berbulu did to our balcony glass door), they promise us to replace the curtain on tuesday, which is working day, we can't.

On saturday, I came to them, and they said it was not ready, ok I left with less patience. Today, after having an intense not intimate a bit intimidating high tone discussion and followed by a few destructive actions with si Kaki Berbulu, I came to the curtain provider with a high expectation of my curtain that I can see my edgy grey curtain, and put it on my window. But she said, they are not ready.

My first response was "i'll wait here until it's ready". After few minutes of sitting, she finally told me, that my curtain fabrics was not available due to increase of crude oil price, iraq bombing, and kate middleton also wants it so bad, she buys all the fabrics and wrap her self. Then she told me that the workers are busy, too many orders because it seems that the entire world order the same curtain at the same time ofmy order, and I have to wait several more days...

And then there goes my patience. I am fat angry bitch who wants her grey curtain. And the best part was, when they checked the list, actually based on the list THEY MADE, my curtain is already DONE. Please miss, are you kidding me?

So, here I am enjoying my grey curtain. Ah... I think I can do this all day, starring at my curtain match my bed sheet. Sweet!
