Yogyakarta - Day 3

yogya welcome us wif another sunny day :)

sunshine, hot but windy~ good weather made me feel fresh and cheered me up the entire day...here u go for our homestay...


our rooms


breakfast, everyday the same, except the way they prepare is difference, day 1 scrambled egg,, day 2 omelets, day 3 sunny up

done wif our breakfast... met wif the driver, forgot what is his name, to allign wif indo culture, we had to call him Bapak...while internally we named him Yaprom! LOL...the same name as our bangkok's driver...and stupid ork, keep greeting this driver as Yaprom and made him confused like a blur ass!! hahaha!

the volcano was the 1st spot we visited, which known as Mount Merapi...it tooked us abt 2hours+ to reach~ *phew*


any1 tell me what is ketep pass??


love this photo~


outstanding scene~! tat's the volcano and it is still active~ just exploded few months b4 wi went *scary*

without doubt the whole volcano is in ur eyes, simply awesome! we went for our tea break (we owaz tea break...haha) after 1 hour of wandering on the hill...


soto ayam...taste good! esp when u take with the sambal..!


u can find this bakso mee everywhere in indo...mee wif fishball, beefball...all kinda meatball...it came in a small portion, so every1 of them took 2 bowls! so u know how it tasted :)


this is a bit disgusting, choco cheese banana~

wat's next? haha...LUNCH! yes, u r seeing the words LUNCH~~ we went for ayam goreng suharti...which according to mr planner, tk...this is a famous specialities in yogya, a must to take~~ check it out...


this is the suharti fried chicken, came in a whole chicken...very very chispy, which is damn nice


this is a bit yucky for me, coz i dun take chicken intestines...!


my favourite! kangkung wif sambal...!


simply beancurd take wif the sambal below


taste very special, sweet n spicy! a small bite enough to make u scream like a moron!


soup...forgot wat soup, just remember it didnt taste goo


local named it Gado-Gado...sumthg like our Malay rojak, to me, it tasted very weird :p may b i am the weirdo...tat's y...~~haha

after the lunch we went for candi prambanan...borobudur is a buddist temple, while Prambanan is masterpieces of Hindu architecture... it is the biggest temple complex in Java island. there are 224 temples in the complex; three towering temples on the central terrace dominate the complex. Those are Brahma Temple in the North, Visnu Temple in the South and the biggest among the three which lies between Brahma and Visnu is Çiwa Temple which soars up to 47 meters high.

well, if u familiar with hinduism, u will surely interested in this...in fact, i kinda impressed with yogya tourisms, every of these heritage spots consist of video room, dey explain all the stories behind (although u need to food extra bill :|)...which recall u the histories...dont forget we did learn all these in our sejarah...


magnificient, huh? it is the best seen shortly after dawn or in the late afternoon. However it is still beautiful at any time...



so upset to see the heritage has been destroyed like tat...a lot of the small candi surrounded the main complex has been ruinned like this, due to most of them has been abandoned den neglected for decades, even worse the temples themselves collapsed during an earthquake in the 16th century. Half-hearted excavations by the archaeologists in 1880s only facilitated looting. Proper restoration began only in 1930 and continues today...


the place where we took most of the photos~ the bizarre n funny 1...haha


a lots said this gal looks nice in there, it actually make me happy for quite some while!! ahhahahah!!

somethg happened in between...u c, none of us love sun tanning, so we rented 3 pairs of umbrella...however, during our photo taking, we located them at a corner of the candi...just few mins later we found 2 of 'em missing...since nth we could do...we proceed wif whatever...when we abt to exit the candi...we tried to play hide n seek, too bad the da umbrella owner spotted us and chased us for a long distance...it was rather funny than scary...!! hahahaha...BUT, if u think we were bad, pls DON'T...coz we have been conned...the umbrella rental is abt 3-5MYR, but tat fella rented us rm20!!!

we met the mr. so called yaprom, (none of us know his real name till today..haha) fetched us abt 6pm and backed to our homestay...we straight took the beca (tricycle) to molioboro, yogya city to have dinner...the city amazed me indeed... shopping complex in an old city like this, is equiped with wifi...! the whole building!
