Go abroad? Why not?

Today i'm trying to post something in english, hahaha. I'm sorry if there are many errors in this post.

Last post, i've told you about my first experience to go abroad, without any family or friend, just alone. That is not as scary as i imagine, and i 've done that succesfully. Going abroad isn't that difficult. You just need a passport, visa (for some country), ticket, and place to stay. Fortunately, my first 'going abroad' experience was only to malaysia, that doesn't need a visa, and i already have place to stay there, in my friend's workshop. I just need a ticket, and now there are so many cheap ticket from low-cost airline. So you don't need to worry for planning a vacation abroad.

I'm curious and very interested to go to further country, like in europe, or middle east. I have many friends that have travels to many country like Ukraine, Slovakia, Germany, UAE, Qatar, etc. that makes me so jealous. One day, my parents ask me, my brother, and my sister about our mid-term exam. We have different time for mid-term exam, so we looking for free time that doesn't contain exam there. And guess what?? We are going umrah! Yeah, i'm so excited! My father gave me the brochure that contains some package, and i'm interested in package plus that included tour to Egypt, Turkey, or Jerusalem (Palestine). But my father didn't agree because those packages are too expensive. So we decide to take a standard package, but using Emirates airlines, so that we have to transit in Dubai, before going to Madinah. Of course we got plenty time to city tour there. We are planning to depart on April 17, 2013.

Before departing, i'm looking for information about Dubai, Saudi, and my airlines, Emirates. I just want to know first before going there. First, i got the information about the flight. From Jakarta (CGK) to Dubai (DXB) we will go with big-Boeing 777-300ER. This plane is very beautiful and big for long haul flight. Garuda Indonesia yet only have one plane like this. From Dubai (DXB) to Madinah (MED) we use Airbus A330-200, that is well-known in indonesia. A medium plane for short haul flight. And then from Jeddah (JED) to Dubai (DXB) we use Airbus A380-800. This is very very big plane, and i can't wait to go with it! We haven't see this kind of plane in Indonesia, because this plane is too big for runway and 'apron' in Indonesia. And the last flight is from DXB to CGK, we use Boeing 777-300ER again.

After that, i got information about Dubai and Saudi. Dubai is more comfortable, with so much modern building there. Saudi is also great, especially on 2 holy city, Makkah and Madinah. Those are place i never forgot, and i hope someday i can go there again.

I will post my umrah trip report in this blog later, just stay tuned.

Thank you!
