Going Back to Semarang

It is Monday. Sweet Monday (Senin Legi). I and Nuri went back to Semarang. We woke up at 04:00 and prepared ourselves for going. Nikmah came to pass fermented cassava (tape). At 06:08 I and Nuri left the house. We stopped by at a Mandiri ATM closed to the main masjid to top up the e-money. We stopped by again at Utama Raya Rest Area to urinate at 07:30. I bought a Sembrani Train (extra trip) ticket at Probolinggo Station at 09:22. The ticket would be for Wednesday morning from Semarang Tawang to Gambir. I got it at Rp452.000.

We entered the toll road at Grati Gate. The traffic was scarce but we still maintained the velocity at 70km/h. At 11:56 at the Rest Area Kilometerage 726 Wringinanom Gresik we stopped by for praying. Masjid At Taubah was very comfortable. It was brizzy when outside was hot. We continue our trip after urinating. At 12:59 at the Rest Area Kilometerage 678 Perak Jombang we stopped by again for having lunch. We brought rice and tofu stir fry from Bondowoso. The next stop was at 14:58 at Kilometerage 575 Paron Ngawi, we refueled our car. At about Salatiga the traffic was congested. The congestion also happened at Bawen and Tembalang. At 17:57 we arrived at home.

OUr trip was mostly in the toll road. The followings were the toll expenses. At 11:09 we exited from Gate Kejapanan Utama, Grati - Kejapanan Utama was Rp40.375, at 11:42 exited from Gate Waru 5, Porong - Waru 5 Rp3.825, and at 17:13 exited from Gate Banyumanik, Warugunung - Banyumanik Rp281.350. Total toll expense was Rp325.550. It said there was a 15% discount so if we paid off it full meaning total Rp383.000.
