ジャカルタと東京の愛

桜の季節が終わってからさ、夏の恋の終わりのハーモニーだよね。どんな季節でもこの愛は咲いているよ。椿さんも私と彼に笑ってくれる。あなたと会えなくて寂しさ。また秋か?また来年の春か?ぜひ私を待ってください。

我々の愛は東京ラブストリーと呼ばれる。

Cibinong 10 December 2011

Di suatu akhir pekan, teman saya mengajak saya ikut hunting foto bareng dengan clubnya di Macro World Mania. Ternyata banyak juga teman-teman FN yang ikut bergabung dalam club macro ini.

Lokasi hunting kali ini cukup menarik, adem, banyak sekali objek macro yang bisa diambil, tetapi sayang cuaca memang sedang tidak bersahabat, hujan di, rumputpun basar, terkadang gerimis, terkadang mendadak panas sepanas-panasnya matahari bersinar.

Lokasi macro ini ada di cibinong, exit tol sentul, lalu ambil kanan ke arah cibinong. Nama tempatnya : bakorsultana cibinong. Kapan-kapan mungkin saya akan mampir kesini lagi.

Thanks to Eko yang sudah ngajak jepret macro bareng.
*masih banyak hasil jepretan yang belum sempat diedit atau diupload...

Taman Sukasada Karangasem 25 December 2011

The weather in Bali is so hot, hotter than in Jakarta :)
Today i went to Karangasem, is far enough from my sister's house in Ubud, it took 2 hours by car.

The view on the way to Karangasem is so blue,,,fabulous, we can see Mt. Agung too. The route from Ubud to Karangasem : Ubud-Gianyar-Goa Lawah-Karangasem.

On the street side of Goa Lawah, there were many "sate pusut" restaurant. Sate pusut is a kind of sate (baberque) made by fish.

A note from me if u wanna visit Taman sukasada, u have to put ur DSLR camera into ur bag, because they charged me Rp. 50.000/ camera. At that time my sister also brought DSLR, and they charged Rp. 50.000 too :)

Entry Fee : Rp. 5.000
DSLR Charge : Rp. 50.000
Sate Pusut : Rp. 1000/piece
Sate Pusut Package : Rp. 6.000 include rice,hot tea, sambal matah, pepes ikan, fish ball soup, plecing, 6 pieces of sate pusut. Cheap enough, coz in Jakarta the price of sate pusut more less 28.000 in my fav cafe :)

Below is the details of Taman Sukasada taken from website : http://www.balistarisland.com/Bali-Interesting-Place/Taman-Sukasada.htm

Taman Sukasada or Sukasada Park is a beautiful park with big fish pond surrounds the old Karangasem Empire heritage building which is used by the Karangasem's King for day relaxation or meeting place in their era.

Good Morning 2012

In the silent morning just me and the garden
Drew drops....
The sounds of silent bring cool essence
New dew every morning
Bring human new chapter too
With a song of romantic ballad
With the small rain drops too
Feel the breeze and touch the new u
Good morning 2012
