Trains (again)

Something about the train that giving strong energy towards the boys in my house.

Little that I know, my husband spend his childhood doing trainspotting or walk on the rails after school.

Now our little man become obsessed with it.

Back in KLlife, weekend means walk around the city and maximizing the usage of public transportation.

Usually free Go KL bus as starter and finish strong with KTM (and taxi ride).

And now, in creating memories about how wonderful his childhood (mama is trying hard LOL), we opted the train trip as one of the weekend checklist activity (at least once a month).

And we are HAPPY.

No matter how busy unproductive unsatisfying our weekdays went, trains will bring back the smile.

By all means, everyone is HAPPY.

Winner!

Last weekend we took train from Manggarai to Kota. It cost 3.000 rupiah/person.

2 top options that available for this route is :

Bogor/depok – Kota

Bekasi – Kota

They are available at line 1 and 3. Or you can simply ask the officer there.

Trains are passing by every minute. I feel this is the busiest station I ever seen.

Most of the train are 10 coaches long and always FULL.

Wow, as you know that Indonesia is one of the most populated country in the world and I am proudly saying that Train is doing very well now because everyone can queue-ing and lining up properly.

Anyway, back to our train trip, the boys are spending time chatting and spotting the train at the station.

Total time riding the train : 15 minutes (one way)

Total chatting at the stations : 30 minutes.

Total time that I am spending for taking pictures : 15 minutes ++ ( and walking around checking convenient store while waiting for the boys)

Speaking about Kota (our destination), this is the old heritage area. One of the main attraction in Jakarta.

Maybe I’ll explain more about it in the next post.

See you around!

Have a great week ahead
