Jakarta - Bandung Trip 2019 (Part 3)

Day 2 in Bandung

14th February 2019


Rancabali District


Our first destination was Kawah Putih (the White Crater) which is located about 40 minutes drive away from the city centre of Bandung. The fee is Rp. 70k excluding the parking fee. Just prepare some extra cash guys.

We spent about 1 1/2 hours there. The view of the crater was very beautiful. It was my very first time to see a crater, which is initially made from the volcano eruption.

The next destination was Glamping Lakeside which is also known as Situ Patenggang. There's a history behind the name by the way. There's a stone which carved with its whole story. Basically the lake was where 2 lovers met for the first time and thought their love forever. The story is in the picture. Oh yeah, the fee is Rp. 25k.

The lake is indeed very beautiful, serene and tranquil. I always thought that I would never have that kind of moment, travelling far away from home and see other people's culture. I was wrong. It all is up to us anyway. If we really want it, we strive for it. That's the key.

There's a big ship that transformed as a restaurant for tourists to have meals while enjoying the view of the lake, greeny hills and tea farms all around. We spent another 1 1/2 hours there.

The third destination for the day was Ranca Upas. The fee was Rp. 10k.  So what is Ranca Upas? It's a rehabilitation centre for deers. Okay, you might be questioning why would an animal rehab be part of the trip? The trip is meant for nature, enjoying the flora and fauna, etc. In fact, I've never seem a deer before my eyes in whole life. Let alone touching it. Since it was just one way to, then why not?

It was already around 2pm. As we headed off to the city, Barusen Hill plan was cancelled due to rain and it was already late to go.  Maybe next time. So we were headed back to the City.

Lembang District

We checked in at D&D Backpack House and had our dinner there. The food was very homey and we were all warmly welcomed.

Truth hurts

The truth never lies, though it always hurts.  I knew the fact that should have gotten rid of it since last year, but I don't know for some reasons, this year I can't handle it. It is something about my feeling that I rarely felt. This time around, I might have fallen for the wrong person. I didn’t want this to happen, but I couldn’t help it. Till next post, bye!

Kemarin

Saat ini, saat aku menulis cerita pada kali ini, ialah saat aku sebak dan sedih tatkala semuanya berlalu di fikiranku. Terlalu banyak perkara yang tersimpan dalam lubuk hati, dalam benak fikiran, dalam sudut setiap inci kehidupanku ketika ini. Tidak dapat diluahkan semuanya dengan lisan. Hanya gambaran yang dapat mengurangkan rasa sesak ini.  Apa entah yang mengganggu aku yang membuatkan aku leka dengan dunia, sikapku yang baran, hati keras, percakapan yang kasar dan sebagainya.  Jauh di sudut hati, semua perkara yang aku lakukan akanku sesalkan kemudian. Aku tahu salah, tapi aku tetap buat.  Orang sekeliling takkan faham apa isi hati kita, apa yang tersirat dalam senyuman dan kegembiraan kita. Tuhan saja yang Maha Mengetahui. Saat ini banyak perkara yang aku sesalkan. Banyak.  Aku rasa aku tertekan dengan semua perkara yang mengganggu fikiranku dan mempengaruhi tindak tandukku. Tentu saja kalau masa itu boleh diputar kembali, satu-satunya perkara yang aku ingin sekali buat ialah memad

Salah Faham

 Apa yang aku niat, apa yang aku maksudkan, apa yang aku ingin sampaikan menjadi lain bila disalah fahamkan. Orang tak faham aku. Kenapa tiada rasa hormat? Kenapa terus melenting? Kenapa perlu menjadi sangat sangat biadap? Kenapa? Entahlah. Sedih bila kita rasa macam ni. Rasa macam tidak dipedulikan langsung. Tahun baru 2021 dah kot. Macam tak padan2 dengan perangai dan cara layanan bila fikir umur dah meningkat. Teruk. Teruk betul. Terima kasihlah buat rasa macam ni.
