%cb The market.: A lot of local flair...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Name of Shop: The market.


    One day we went to the market...
    I got a perfect orientation feeling. So we first
    did our walk through the fields and
    the we went searching for the market we
    saw the day we arrived , not that far from
    the bus stop.

    It looks like every other market in Indonesia ,
    a lot of wooden stalls , some food corners ,
    a bit muddy , a ....


    What To Buy: Whatever you feel like buying.
    Food , music , soap , sweets.....


    What To Pay: verry little , this is not the tourist shop.
    This is were the locals come shopping.

    %cb Beach - Galery Bakery: We want to go picnicking...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Name of Shop: Beach - Galery Bakery


    A lot on the sign was trying to convince us
    this was a tourist shop with a lot of
    international goodies.

    Well we did find some things we found
    acceptable. Everything has got that holland
    bakery feeling. Meaning , rubber , sticky...lol.
    But it was okay.
    I think it was quit fresh also. Fresh from the
    oven they say themselves...and it had real
    butter in it. That is rather a rare ingredient overhere.


    What To Buy: Donuts , rolls with banana in it and chocolate....

    What To Pay: Donut , 2500ir

    %cb Souvernirshops...: I've reported it...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Name of Shop: Souvernirshops...


    We saw them all over town ,
    but in this little street it was the worst.
    Prepared sea turtles. I think it is sad to see
    these endagered species varnished and
    sold as a souvenir.

    For your information , it are illegal souvenirs.
    They are illegal on Java so IF you get them out
    of the country , chances are little that you'll
    get them into yours.

    I know there are people who think that
    C.I.T.E.S-law is a lot of bull.
    And it probably isn't perfect.
    I think it would be sad to loose a magnificient
    species like this , just because some people
    think they look better on a wall.
    (and because of some profit made by selling them)


    What To Buy: NOTHING!


    Not knowing things is not an excuse
    Ignorance is a disease that can be cured.

    I hope in the feature the government can
    work out a plan to offer alternative ways of
    getting an income. Most likely it will be
    foreign organisations that will set up some
    aid program.

     did u get to stay at Batu Karas Beach? that's the best spot to stay in Pangandaran almost empty beach (unless during public holidays) good food, cheap rooms, good crowd (mostly college students from Bandung and surfers).
