Hideaway Getaway

The next three posts were from my pre-pregnancy days. As you can see that I still have my long hair here. ^_^

After weeks of intense work at the office, I decided to have a mini weekend getaway to a natural hot spring place at Ciater, Subang, about three hours away from the capital city. I'm staying at this darling resort of a dozen cottages called Gracia Spa. The place is all about greenery, picturesque surrounding, and natural beauty. I mean, what would make a better lullaby than the sound of a bubbling brook just right there beside your bedroom? Soothing indeed.

Now, one thing I reminded myself over and over in my marriage, is that I am not just a mother, but also a wife. It means I must, I want to make my husband a priority. I want to make time for him. I want to care for and about him. I want to make priority and time for US. Including taking a romantic getaway together, just the two of us, once in a while. We're not two little kids, we are not being selfish, we are basically investing in our relationship.

Aren't they cute? They even have some "heels" effect, like a wedge. They're very light and super comfortable to wear. In short, they're 3C = Cute, Cheap, Comfy. Great buy for casual wear! The skirt? Oh, I refashioned one of old jeans and turn them over into this skirt!

I've been waiting for this vacation for weeks, so I'm very excited to do all those fun activities people do on a holiday. Like, sleeping, eating, sleeping, eating a chocolate-covered, heart-shaped ice cream, ... Very productive, eh!

This is the public pool looks like from the restaurant.

The bungalow.

This is the patio with a breakfast nook and private hot spring water pool.

The air is cool, but the water is warm 24/7 since it's a spring water pool. And having this private pool just a step from the room is just pure luxury. I'm so thankful that I have the time, saved the money, and all my five senses to enjoy all of this.

And this is another view of the public pool from the restaurant in the evening. It's just beautiful.
