Shopping - well wish U girls had been with me last month as I didnt do much "Girl" shopping. A couple of the young lads at the Hotel I stayed ( Adhi Dharma ) were great on giving me price ideas. For my son ( near 17)so set him up on his xmas and Birthday stuff which I just wrapped up today. Oh and my nephew whose 13.
They all love rip curl, billabong brands and there was some great stuff. I got 11 XL real quality shirts for approx Rp460,000.
The lads had warned me to check quality and not stuff U can see daylight thru and make sure all the right tags are on ya ya ya ya ya
Well in the confusion plastic bags, back of shop antics ( ie. any fresh air somewhere ???) I got a couple of duds !! Plus paid a bit more than the lads had ( ??? MMmm) but really who cares.
Afterward I felt good that I had actually bought some clothing cos I hadnt done that shopping til then.
But the worse thing for me was buying my 23 yr old daughter some nice shell necklaces only to find them somehow ( other 1/2's re arranging of suitcase) all chipped by some heaving wooden servers I had bought.
Bla.. men...
All girl stuff for me next visit !!
