Last summer I went travelling to Surabaya, the second biggest city in Indonesia which famous for its historical story and called as City of Heroes. First destination was Monkasel - Monumen Kapal Selam or Submarine Monument which located in the heart of Surabaya. It's only 1 mile away from my hotel in Tunjungan Street so I reached there just in 5 minutes drive.
In Monkasel, there was a great KRI Pasopati 410, an original Russian submarine made in 1952. Measuring 76,6 meters long and 6,3 meters wide, this submarine was capable of diving to a depth of 300 meters. It was also equipped with steam torpedoes and used by Indonesia Navy's Eastern Division since January 1962. It was such wonderful time to be the part of submarine life. So I knew how to life under the sea and sang one of my favorit song from The Beatles " we all live in yellow submarine... yellow submarine...."

After submarine tour, I got lunch in a beautiful restaurant in west Surabaya which presenting multicultural atmosphere from Chinese-Javanese-Balinese united into one called Kahyangan Art Resto. We chose Indonesian cuisine such as gurame suka nirwana, cumi bakar madu, kakap goreng mangga etc. The place was very comfortable and food all delicious.
At night, I hang out along Tunjungan Street taking some culinary experiences and enjoyed the city night lights. And of course I got lost at Tunjungan Plaza because it's soooo wide space and famous for the second biggest mall in this country. No shopping at all but it was such a good night at Tunjungan. Then I started singing.... " Rek ayo rek mlaku mlaku nang Tunjungan... Rek ayo rek rame rame bebarengan..... Cak ayo cak sopo gelem melu aku... Cak ayo cak golek kenalan cah ayu...."
