Taman Mini Indonesia Indah (TMII)

Another accomplishment in striking off one bucket list at a time. Today's stop is going to Taman Mini Indonesia Indah also known as the fieldtrip place for students. But in my case, when I was still at school, we didn't go to see the various museum sites inside the huge hectares lot, we went to the waterpark instead which was not educational at all. I so much prefer going to museums rather than showing off my skin wearing tights in the swimming pool.

Anyway, dad let us use his driver from the factory to go there which was amazing since we did not have to use public transportations to reach the place. It's pretty far you know if you are using public transportation. We used the highway instead and only took us about an hour which was very time-efficient.

Each person has to pay an entrance fee of Rp. 10,000.00 as well with the car which was charged the same fee. So there was the 4 of us along with the driver and we paid Rp. 50,000.00 to enter. I highly recommend people to enter using their car since the place is humongous and it really wastes your time if you have to walk from  one place to another since they are located far from one another.

Our goal that day was to visit every single one of the museums but we failed terribly and only visited a few. A few of which we took the most expensive and worth it experience such as the bird museum, reptile museum in which we could come face to face with the animals which was pretty cool. The stench however was unbearable. Talk about the blood-sucking insects using their golden opportunity to snack on us. We came out of the bird domes with spots on our legs and ankles. It looked revolting and it itched really bad. One hint: bring a mosquito repellant lotion with you and apply before entering everywhere.

When we arrived the place it was pretty empty and by the time we wanted to enter the Museum of Indonesia, there were a couple of school buses filled with students that were about to go in as well. At that instant I felt the chance of wandering the empty museum was buhbye.

the balinese setting of the museum Indonesia is simply splendid

inside the museum there are a lot of traditional clothes from all over Indonesia

I must be thinking that the people who translated the original names of the items here must be using some
generic dictionary since the item #3 is Ceret and is called Diarhea. You can look at the picture below that Ceret is
definitely not a type of faeces as classified by the Bristol Stool Chart.
There is another word menceret when you can tell it is diarrhoea for sure. This is bahasaindonesia-101 for you peeps.
Dude and seriously look at item#4 Carved Diarrhea. Okay bros.. you cannot possibly carve diarrhoea. 

item#3 this is a teapot ladies and gents
