Free Beauty Salon Blueprints

after sleeping almost 12 hours, the trip yesterday was exhausting, we started walking for the city. The center is located less than 3km from our Apek Utama Hotel, the road follows the river, Sungai Brunei, which is in the usual style fognoso of these places, in short, in addition to the fish contains a large amount of dirt!

The weather was not nice and before we arrived in town began to rain and we sheltered under a river taxi stop and a taxi driver is readily come to attack button and offer its services.
Fortunately the rain stopped for a moment and we escaped. We headed to the Great Mosque of Omar Ali Saifuddien. nel1958 It was built and one of the tallest buildings in the city. We took some pictures outside and then we entered. We obviously took his shoes off, then the guards made us wear a black robe reaching to the feet, no veil for me this time, maybe because I had the hat. The interior was tastefully decorated, on the ground there were beautiful green carpet. We could only walk on carpet special for visitors, which led under the dome. We also had to roll up my pants wet and certainly not because they were so pleased with our dirty feet. The dome is gilded inside and outside is decorated with mosaics beautiful. There was also an escalator leading to the upstairs, strange see one in a place of prayer!?! However, after a while we were thrown out. From here we went to visit the Royal Regalia Museum, which is not very good from outside, but inside is quite luxurious. The museum illustrates the megalomania of the Sultan, like the carts used during any parade, complete with a reproduction of the parade and the public, received gifts, clothing, ceremonial scepters, medallions, models of houses he owns and a slew of his photos and the royal family.
There are also the most interesting things throw old documents and some paintings. Fortunately, the entry was free. Then we took the bus No purple 55 that would have brought us to the famous Jerudon Park Playground, an amusement park given by the sultan in 1994 for his 58th birthday to the people. When they got on the bus it started to rain. . . The ticket before going down so we said if we wanted to go back on the last bus was alle18, after we had to take a taxi. The park opens only at night, from 17 onwards, we will arrive there around 17.15. It was raining and there was nobody in the park. We have entered into an information center in decadent give us a map. The park is very large, but more than half of the rides were closed. We were told that the inauguration of the park there was also Michael Jackson, we believe this park has fallen to pieces as his face!
Although the park is younger than him. In short, the maintenance here do not know what! His Majesty the Sultan of Brunei, said that this is the largest amusement park in the world, but in summer the Agno rides you can do more things. Catching a ride we met a keeper who has brought us to a water slide that operated just for us! David did not like, for me it was ok.

The only thing was that it was a little scrancio and I was afraid it could break at any moment. Already in Europe and / or America, where we are accustomed to some maintenance every so often you hear of some incident. So as Park was a disappointment and was not the case of leaving the pens , we have decided to escape! So we ran to the street on a sidewalk slippery tiles and we got to the last direct bus route downtown. During the return trip we noticed that even here, as in almost every other part of the world except the tires of cars are used to decorate the gardens, we only use them to make big bonfire! The Lonely Planet it says that Brunei is one of the smallest and richest in the world, certainly not to see that is rich! Surely there are some nicer houses in Malaysia, most modern cars and alcuni posti di lusso, ma la qualità di vita della popolazione non mi sembra tanto meglio che in altri posti dell'Asia. Tornati in centro siamo andati a mangiare qualcosa in un fast food tarocco. Poi visto che erano solo le 19.30 abbiamo fatto un giretto in città e fatto qualche foto alla moschea illuminata di notte. Ho fatto anche un filmato con il cellulare durante la chiamata alla preghiera del moazin. Verso le 21 ci siamo avviati a casa. Sulla strada lungo il fiume si incontrano molti pescatori di gamberetti. . . pescano gamberi e anche la sporcizia che nel fiume abbonda. Arrivati a casa solita routin, doccia e letto.
