Bangles

Love bangles so much.  I always drooling every time I see this bangles stand. My top favorite is silver bangle which bit expensive compare with this plastic and beaded one.  It cost only Rp. 30.000 - 40.000 (1US$ about Rp.10.000) Wearing bangles can elevated your overall look. You should try it

City Daily Photo Theme: Doorway

 

This door is typical door of Rumah Joglo (Javanese traditional house). Made from old teakwood. Rumah Joglo originally from Central Java. Since  Jakartan love to decorate their house with some traditional touch, now  the door made in knock-down type and sold separatedly. You may order and put it in your door. I saw this door is sold in Craft and Art exhibition.

Camera Critters: Bunnies

Beside cat and dog, rabbit are sold in every pet  shop in Jakarta. They quite popular too. I love rabbit but never had a change to have them as a pet since I already have dogs. I don't think my dogs will go along with this tender critter.

Street Painter

As a central of shopping place,eating out and meeting point, Blok M  (situated in South Jakarta) is a very facinating place. You can find different type of  activities here. Like this street painter. Althought they work are second-rate but not bad. Oh they really like to paint a public figure. Obama is quite populer here.

Bridge on Progress

A crossing bridge near my office is being remodel. It took quite a time before we can use it. In a mean time, we use a temporary one   which is very narrow and not convenience.  See those  two construction workers? I really admire them who not afraid of height at all.

Live on Bus

Pengamen can loosely translate  as street performance is quite common in Jakarta. Actually pengamen  ask for a tip by singing in streets or in public transportation. I bet every Jakartan who using  public transportation really familiar with this a kind of live entartainment. They come and go pretty quick. As one performance ended, another will jump to the bus  at once and start singing or mostly just mumbling under frequency  only heard by non human. But this couple of  pengamen performed so good and I didn't  mind  give a  little contribution.

Fried Noodle

You never get starved at night in Jakarta. Just wait for mie goreng (fried noodle) seller passed your home. Beside fried noodle, they serve  fried rice, fried kwetiaw (kwetiaw = ricecake stip of noddle) , and fried bee hon (bee hon = rice vermicelli)  too. One portion only Rp. 7000,- (1 US$ = Rp.10.000,-) This mie goreng man, always passed my home after 10 pm.
