A Trip From Houston

It has been a long time for me to post in Tjia Family’s Blog. Lately I have been busy with work and other stuff especially since my cousin, Dessya Palit, and my aunt, Tjia Bie An, came to Texas last week.

We had planned to go to Houston to celebrate Indonesia’s 63rd anniversary for the Indonesian Declaration Day. On August 23rd, all of us (Ci Christa, Ko Stanly, De Dessya, I Fong, and me) traveled to Houston to celebrate the anniversary with our cousin, Koko Luky, with the rest of the Indonesians in there.

As we walked in to the bazaar there were lots of booths selling foods, jewelries, batiks, and other items from Indonesia. We immediately went to the booths that sell es cendol, martabak, rendang, bakmi, empe-empe and sate.

It felt like home again. The crowd, faces, people shouting here and there to sell their stuff. What I really like the most is that the fact that my family was there and all of us enjoyed the trip.

Unfortunately though we didn’t take any pictures when we were in the bazaar. Although we took some other pictures in the Forbidden Garden. Check them out!

A 5-hour drive from Keene to Houston is really worth it for the gathering of family, and fun that we all had.
