Prambanan Temple
Yeay!!! finally we came to the most exciting spot of our short trip!
Prambanan Temple, a Hinduism temple in Jogja.
(Borobudur is too far from the city, so I set this in my dream list)
weee... taking group picture before entering the main compound...
the uncompleted part at the front...
the whole structure was built without cementing agent,
i always wonder why the past generation could be so smart?
walking into Prambanan...
Gunung Merapi from far~

windy and nice weather!
posing in front Gunung Merapi again :P
looking up...

Walking in Malioboro
Finally, we're brought to Malioboro market.
Basically just 2 row of shops on the long straight road, but is known to be the top shopping market in Jogja.
I thought it would be fun, mana tau, we have to play some sort of "Amazing Race" game, where the hint is located somewhere like on the golden rabbit =.="
so here we go, along the straight, but i wasn't involved much in finding the hint/solution, i just taking picture around~ enjoying the view, while following my group's pace. xP
and i saw this! Horse riding along Malioboro street!
was wondering why they must close their eyes?
but when i got near, he actually responded to my movement!
Yeah, finally reach the end of the street, which indicated the end of the games...
But...u see the weather....
Haiz, walking the street under heavy rain is not a good idea :(
So...we went for some light food...

Getting near to Gunung Merapi
Gunung Merapi (means Fire Mountain in Javanese), is an active volcano which is very near to the city of Yogyakarta.
Literally, it's kinda dangerous to go there, but for the sake of 'adventure', we visited there in our last trip! (this is spoken from 'lung', directly translated from Chinese >.<)
From hotel, we took the 3+2 seated bus getting towards Gunung Merapi...
ermmm...foot hill only...
The road is not really wide, and we're going uphill, a bit like in Bali.
Frankly, I still prefer the road system in Malaysia...

Then, we passed by a seem-to-have-destroyed dam, and they said this is for the lava not for water...
Finally, we had arrived our destination, where we're going for some CSR work--tree planting!I could hardly take a picture of Gunung Merapi, due to the thick and big cloud!!!
One small peak was the only result I got...
Basically, the hole already been dug, what we need to do were just wearing gloves, then put the bonsai into the hole, and cover it at last...One hole so many hands~~~ xD
but seriously, it was damn HOT!!!
After completing the hole, we went to a local primary school, for the library opening ceremony, which OGIP had sponsored on it...
After getting full, bored, dizzy and felt asleep, while waiting super looong in the bus for their Friday prayer @.@

Trying the Jogja food~
Even in our hotel, we got the chance to try the local cuisine during breakfast buffet. =D
Irshad had told me that the must-try in Jogja is always its "Gudeg"...
Gudeg is the one on bottom right, it doesn't look tempting from first sight though...It's actually a traditional food from Central Java and becomes trademark of Jogja.
The taste...ermmm...personally I'm not really favor its combination--Nangka+Santan+some spices mix with Chicken which is kinda moist and abit too sweet!
Ok, at least I tried but wouldn't ask for more! xP
Irshad said this is "Bubur Sumsum".
The taste and texture is abit like Kuih Talam, but served as if we're eating Tau Fu Fah...quite nice also... :)
The red AngGu kuih is known as "Mata Kerbau"--cow's eyes... pretty much similar to ours...
I've forgotten the name for that beautifully omelete wrapped kuih, with glutinous rice and grated coconut inside, which I thought is like otak-otak. For this appearance, I like it so much!
The one I ate with cili padi taste like fried popiah, with thicker than ordinary skin...
