Surabaya to Bromo

Image
Talking about volcanoes, maybe most Malaysian would think of Indonesia directly, since it considered the country with existence of volcanoes which is nearest from Malaysia. So this time we flied to Surabaya, Indonesia, for volcanoes, Mount Bromo :) From Kuala Lumpur, we reach Surabaya after around 2hours flight. We met few Malaysians in our flight, we both heading to same destination and having the same travel agent !!! The world is so small lol…or our travel agent is too famous?! Surabaya International Airport :) The airport is huge! Bangi Kopitiam spotted there lol.. We are welcomed by our travel agent once we walked out from the arrival gate and we started our journey to Bromo by a Toyota Avanza :) Stopped by at a local restaurant for lunch :) Typical Indonesian style nasi goreng ayam, too salty for us @.@  The fried banana is a snack that served readily on every table, didn’t try on it. After lunch, we continued our journey. From city to rural area :...

Haha, thanks to LATAR highway which shorten distance between Kuala Lumpur & Kuala Selangor. From Kuala Lumpur, you would pass through Kuala Selangor, then is Tanjung Karang and finally is Sekinchan :) Don’t miss the super famous cendol bakar when you reach Kuala Selangor (situated beside Caltex petrol station).  They even provide drive-thru service ! Variety of choice available. Cendol VIP, Rm2. Perfect on a hot day :) Location of Cendol Bakar View Larger Map Woohoo, when you saw greenish field along the roadside, meant you are at Sekinchan already !!! It was a gloomy day with chill wind, the sun is too shy to welcome us :P You would notice a 南天宫 signboard on your rig...
