So from 5 - 14 Feb we went back to Surabaya for Chinese New Year. We don't usually go back this long for CNY but since Lincoln is already attending regular tuition classes for English & Chinese, I'd really hate to arrange for make-up classes at other times. So I thought let's just spend more time in Surabaya and save on the air fares as well. My wife suggested that we go to Batu as well which I thought is quite a great idea. So we planned a 3 days and 2 nights visit to Batu this time.
We departed Singapore on a 7:50 a.m. flight early in the morning and arrived in Surabaya at 9:30 a.m. Unfortunately immigration and baggage clearance took about an hour so we only got out at about 10:30. We were then greeted with the traffic which seems to get worse every year I come back, I'm still trying to digest that it took us nearly an hour to get home from the airport, twice the usual time it should be.
