On Sunday, 14 October 2007, we went to
Bandung for us to celebrate
Hari Raya Idul Fitri with our relatives in Bandung.
For this year, the Hari Raya Idul Fitri event for my father's big family is conducted in Bandung, and not in
Tasikmalaya, which is my parents' hometown. My grandmother came from Tasikmalaya to Bandung for this event. Therefore, we didn't have to go to Tasikmalaya for this year's Hari Raya.
Unfortunately
my wife was unable to join us so that she could accompany Nenek (her mom) in Jakarta. Nenek was just discharged from hospital several weeks earlier.
We left Cinere in the morning and stopped at one of the rest areas along Jakarta-Cikampek expressway around Cikarang for late breakfast at Simpang Raya restaurant. We reached Bandung in the afternoon.
