Bandung Day Part IV : Volcano blues....

Location : Tangkuban Perahu

Date : 11 October 2010

Today, we gonna do some leisure things..rather than shopping till death!!  heheh (Actually it's all about our Rp (Indonesian Rupiah) or even RM (Ringgit Malaysia) almost sinking, therefore we decided to slow it down on shopping task..but unfortunately buying on souvenir also cost a lot!!..*sigh. Enough said, lets enjoy those snapshots...

Hiking at Bukit Tabur

Date : 31 July 2010

Location : Bukit Tabur, Taman Melawati ( About 20km from KL)

Well, to be truth, this is my almost-8-month-delay's post. Well, better post it than never..hehe.

Anyway, this is my second hiking trip after Broga. Although it's look so tough to reach the top, but unbeliveably it's not. Hiking gear was smooth without any major. So, whoever out there, who are willing to hike this hill..you are most welcome..

Journey start...

View from first peak..there are  six or seven more peaks to go...hohoho...

In the middle of hiking...

This is awesome...

So nice...

P/S: Nothing is imposibble..right?
