jakarta shopping spree

Finally an update! I'm still a bit busy processing pics for my family these days, especially since we just had a new year's barbeque celebration going on the eve of the new year. Naturally, I became the de-facto photographer.

Anyway, if you're a Bruneian traveling to Jakarta, there is really only one thing you can do: shop. My two weeks plus trip to Jakarta turned out as I expected; most of the days were spent shopping and only two or three days were dedicated to sightseeing. Well no use crying over spilt milk.

Apart from family photos, I didn't get much chance to take photos worth putting up on this blog. But I'll share whatever I have over the course of the next few days anyway.

About the photo:
This particular shopping mall is called Taman Anggerek Mall. Quite a big place, much bigger than The Mall here in Brunei, but not the biggest there is over there. If you look carefully, there's even an ice skating rink in the upper floors - also much larger than what we have here. Christmas shopping season is, as you can see, in full swing in shopping malls across the city.
