Tour de Yogyakarta

The day that we had been waiting was come!!! In June 1st-2nd, we were going to Yogyakarta for our adventure. Actually, Gegabah (the name of our group) had planned this adventure for a month. Our slogans were pleasure, cheap and fun. And the destination that we visited were Ambarukmo Plasa, Malioboro market and Drini beach.

We started our journey at 12 o’clock. The compositions were Wimbo and Fhany as the driver, Bintang as the navigator, Febrika as the treasurer, Wian as the medic, Vitus and Ricky as the securities. In klaten, our car could go until 120 km/jam. It was unbelievable because we have 7 passengers and there were a lot of stuffs in our car! We arrived at yogyakarta by 1.45 p.m.

Ambarukmo plaza is the biggest mall in the Yogyakarta. There are a lot of shops and restaurants in Ambarukmo plaza. Some well-known shops such as crocks, nike, adidas also open a counter in there. Actually, we only wanted to see Prince Persia 2 in the 21 cinema. After 2 hours long, we continue our trips to the malioboro market.

Walked around malioboro street in the afternoon was not a good choice. The temperature was hot and there were a lot of people around here! So, we decided to buy some Nasi Kucing for our meal first. It was easy to find because there were a lot of Nasi Kucing sellers around Malioboro. After that, with a full stomach and the right time, shopping in the malioboro will be fun.

In the night, we went to Drini beach for having a rest. I think it was a crazy journey because during the journey there was so dark and silent. It looked like we were the only creatures that go to the beach at the night. It took about 1.5 hours driving from Prambanan temple until Drini beach. Although the journey was so terrible, our decision to take a rest in Drini beach was great. In the night, we saw a beautiful view of stars above us. The sand also soft and comfortable enough to us for taking a rest.

In the morning, we climbed up in the tiny island near the beach. We found a fantastic view of Indies Ocean at the top. It was amazing and we took some pictures of it. Then, we spend our time to swim and play on the beach. After that, we went back to Salatiga at 10 o’clock. We felt very tired when we came in salatiga but it’s worth with the pleasure and experience that we got. Thank you guys,, I can’t wait our next Project.
