The Expedition of Gede Mountain Climbing

Image
2005, Ava (11th) and Bima (8th) join "Kelana" with about 15 other childrens to climb Gede Mountain for 5 days. Before that they wade through Ciliwung river by rubber boat from Manggarai to Karet. Yucks! They hate it. They shouted: "Disgusting!". In fact from their two experiences, they learned a lot about "Airi" (air bersih/clean water) and "Samplas" (sampah plastik/rubber trash). For 5 days, they did not take a bath.....they did not brush their teeth.....wow smelly. They were very tired but they were very happy. It was an amazing eperience for them, for me and Sunu too. We have a plan to climb another mountain, but it was just a plan. We never did it until now. We are really looking for a good time to climb Lawu at Central Java and than Rinjani. Insya Allah. .

A story about" Gue & Durian"

Brrrr….. Disini dingin banget oi! Sweaterku kurang tebal kali ya?! Alamak begini nih nasib anak yang nggak nurutin omongan emaknya. Maksudku, omongan Bunda gitu. Kemarin Bunda sudah pesan supaya aku bawa sweater double, tapi nggak kuturutin. Brrr…. Aku makin nggak kuat tiupan angin dingin ini. Eit, tunggu bunyi apaan tuh? Krucuk…krucuk...krucuk…. Eh cilaka, aduh……..duuuuut…. Bah! Bau banget! Sialan, bom atomku keluar juga! Mendingan aku kabur sebelum sobat-sobatku teriak cari kambing hitam bau bom atom ini. Ngaciiiir…….! “Ami…!” jeritan Jenny langsung kudengar. “Anjiir, bau banget, pasti Ami nih! Mana tuh anak?!” kali ini Rani berteriak histeris. “Busyet dah, hoek!” itu teriakan Indi terdengar dari dalam vila. Lari kencanglah aku, sekencang-kencangnya menjauhi vila itu. “Ha, ha, ha.. mampus deh kalian” begitu umpatku dalam hati. “Siapa suruh gue makan durian pagi-pagi!”. Durian adalah makanan terindah bagi penggemarnya di seantero dunia, seperti juga bagi Ayahku yang ganteng dan Bundak...
