Museum Tekstil is open and it's our last chance to get Adi's batik souvenirs done. One of the main aims of this trip was for Adi to learn how to make her own batik art piece, while it would be my second attempt, and hopefully learn a few more tips from the experts. Another former trainee, Melly, also joined us for today, and her mom was nice enough to drop us off at the museum. Lucky for us too as we got quite a bit of discount as she was a local, and she took photos while we were both busy. 

After the few hours spent at the museum, we head back to town for a bit of food, and some sightseeing. We saw the Moulin Rouge sign the first night we were here, and have been wanted to check it out but didn't find a good opportunity. Since we already have our batik and shopping done, we were just left with time to spare. We head up the Grand Indonesia to find more interesting signs and even a train carriage inside. The whole floor was set to look like you were walking into different countries. In the end, we settled in Japan and had a light lunch before parting with Melly and heading back to the apartment to start packing.

After dad was done with work, we head to Benhill for a final seafood meal flavoured by the roadside. Then back to the apartment for one last game of mosquito tennis.
