Turbud

Cultural Tours

 In my school, when I was 11th grade, all of students in 11th grade follow the cultural tours (in Bahasa, called as Tur Budaya or abbreviated as Tubud). This activity held on 20th-26th April 2015. This activity must pay IDR 1.65 million. It so big money i think, but this activity is school event, but the committee from 11th grade.

 The cultural tours is placed in Bali. Why Bali? Because not given more money than go to Lombok, so the choice is Bali. Bali have a lot of culture and can be learned when we visit this city. Bali have a lot of place to visit by local tourist or foreign tourist. I think, Bali is wonderful place, but I'm not particularly fond the beach. Because, beach is hot and as far as the eye can see, I'm only see the sea.

 Day 1 we went by business train from Bandung's station to Surabaya's station. And then, on day 2 we went from Surabaya's station to Ketapang's harbor by bus. One bus stuffed by one class. And we went from Ketapang's harbor to Gilimanuk's harbor by ferry. It's only take 20 minutes but the trip is on nightday. So we so tired. And we went from Gilimanuk's harbor to Hotel by bus again. The Hotel is located in Denpasar, it's so far from Gilimanuk's harbor. The Hotel name is Hotel Nirmala.

 Day 3 we went to Tanjung Benoa to enjoy the watersport, while there I choose Parasailing to test my adrenaline. It's so amazing when I tried Parasailing, I can see Bali from the top, but only 1 turn. And then we went to Pandawa Beach. In Pandawa Beach, we play futsal, but my class jost got runner up. But I was very happy. After that, we went to Garuda Wisnu Kencana to Photo Session. After that we watch Kecak Dance, traditional dance from Bali. And then, we went to Jimbaran for dinner. The food is very delicious from seafood, the traditional seasoning is very delicious.

 Day 4 we went to Panglipuran Traditional Village, we played some games. But i think it's so boring, because the committee not very creative i think. After that, we went ti Kintamani for lunch. The food is very much, I so satisfied. Then, we went to Sukowati for shopping. After that we went to hotel for "makrab", in this schedule we having fun together with 11th grade, like a party.

 Day 5 we went to Kuta Beach for having fun. And then we went shopping to Joger and Krisna. After that, we went to Tanah Lot for the last trip. After that we went home. We went by bus to Gilimanuk's harbor. And then we went from Gilimanuk's harbor to Ketapang's harbor by ferry. And then we went from Ketapang's harbor to Surabaya's station by bus again. From Surabaya's station to Bandung's station we went by executive train.

 We are so happy because this is only once when I was senior high school. We can happy together with 11th grade. And we went home by bring some souvenirs and food from Bali. Thank you my friend when you was the committee.
