Meerzburg

Lake Constance (atau Bodensee dalam bahasa German) merupakan danau ketiga terbesar di Eropa dan danau terbesar di German. Danau ini terletak di perbatasan tiga negara  yaitu German, Austria dan Swiss. Dengan menaiki ferry, kita bisa pindah dari satu daerah di danau Konstaz ke area lain yang berbeda negara. Di tengah danau sendiri terdapat pulau seperti Mainau, Reichenau, dan Lindau. Pulau Lindau ini terkenal waktu musim semi karena terdapat banyak bunga tulip disana.

Sebagain besar daerah di sekitar danau Konstanz ramai oleh wisawatan pada saat musim panas, karena terdapat bagian dari danau untuk berenang. Tapi bukan berarti mengunjungi danau selain musim panas tidak memberikan kesan yang indah. Justru waktu pergi di akhir musim dingin dan menjelang musim semi, tidak banyak wisawatan yang berlalu lalang sehingga bisa menikmati desa sekitarnya dengan leluasa (tentu saja dengan catatan memakai pakaian yang tepat).

Salah satu kota yang terletak dipinggir danau Konstaz yang menawarkan pemandangan cantik adalah Meerzburg. Dalam kota kecil ini terdapat ladang anggur, kastil beserta rumah khas German yang berwarna-warni. Terdapat banyak restoran juga toko yang menjual es krim, bahkan di musim dingin bersalju seperti ini, ada orang yang membeli dan memakan es krimnya sambil berjalan-jalan mengelilingi danau. Terdapat juga toko souvenir yang menjual jam kukuk..karena bunyi burung yang keluar setiap jamnya 'kukuuukkukkukk'. Aslinya jam ini disebut cuckoo clock. Tapi menurut saya, jika ingin membeli jam kukuk lebih baik membelinya di daerah Black Forest.

Saya akan senang sekali kembali berkunjung kembali ketika cuaca agak menghangat sehingga dapat menikmati es krim :)

This Weekend

Yeayy! last weekend my friend (@Kalderapagi) bough an i-phone :D I happy because I love an i-phone (maybe someday I can bought as my friend did :). One of the reason I love it because  instagram application (although last weekend, the instragram can be used at android mobile phone :D)

So, yesterday We (@Kalderapagi and @dislokasi_sri) went to museums near from our office, it should be embarrassed never went there. 
The first destination was The National Museum of Indonesia. This was my first experience, took photographs with i-phone.

An Interesting woodcraft from Bali 


Photos with stupas and statues
 After spending almost 3 hours in the national museum of Indonesia. I can see that this museum attracts foreign tourist but not many domestic tourist like us spent their holiday in museum. I like an old-Wing museum than new-Wing, in the old-Wing we can see stupas and statue, interesting ethical tools such us traditional fabric or clothes, traditional utensil,  traditional musical instrument, traditional miniature houses, jewelry  from gold and diamond, ceramic. The new-Wing is have a concept on the frameworks of cultural element, however most of the exhibits have been seen in the old-Wing. And, I felt that new-Wing kind a soulless concrete. In spite of making a new-building, I thing its more urgent to attract people went to museum. It would be interesting, if there is a video about ethical group in Indonesia (how they live in the past and how they life right now) which is replaced every week with other ethical group. Or it would be nice, if there not only display a traditional music instrument but also we can heard the sound of that instrument. 
And maybe for the stupas and statues, It would be easier to memorize when it is categorized by kingdom. Beside to inform us about history of kingdoms in Indonesia.

Ok, the next destination was Museum of Memorial Stone Park. This museum really near from the National Museum of Indonesia. We can walking or ride a motorcycles (ojek in Indonesia). My friend really want to here, because she watched dramatic-mystical video clip with this place as a background. But she disappointed when we arrived at the park. She looking for a huge statues, but in this park the statues not as big as she imagined. But, still we have so many nice picture here :)

"Nobody knows the troubles, I see nobody knows my sorrow”

 
I like in this museum, because it remind me that someday I will dead. They who died very long time ago, their name became a history. But, unfortunately, in some stone the was graffiti (not an art graffiti but graffiti which harm the beauty and historotical value of the stones).

In the end of the journey, we closed our weekend in Old-Town. Oooh, in weekend so many people here and also so many interesting seller in the street. We just hanging around the Old Town, because museum in Old Town has closed when we arrived.

I hope that museum in Indonesia more attractive so more people like to go to museum. And I will more frequently visit museum ^____^

View from my balcony room


Start from today until Friday, I attend a training in Bogor :)
The weather here is cool, the air is fresh, pretty quite, sometimes misty..
 I can see the mountain in front of villas, near from the villa there is tea plantation.
 I love the view from my balcony, I like the building. Its look like architecture from Dutch colonial  (did I mentioned before, that I like architecture heritage from Dutch colonial).

This picture is taken by my mobile phone camera.
I hope that I can capture other beautiful moment such as misty mountain or sunset/sunrise :D

Cimahi Waterfall

Cimahi waterfall (Curug Cimahi) is located between Lembang and Cimahi, about one and half hours by motorbike from Bandung.
My brother said that this waterfall is the cleanest than the another waterfalls in Bandung and it's surrounding. Whereas I have been live in Bandung for more than 20 years this the fist time I went to this waterfall.

Before we arrived at the gate and buy tickets (one person cost Rp.10.000 or about $1) , we can saw the waterfall from the road :D

After entered the gate, we can saw the waterfall  :)
