Yogyakarta: Mount Merapi


Arrived at Mt. Merapi aka Mountain of Fire and hopped on to a jeep - hell yeah!!!!!!!!!! 

Warning: highly not recommended for people who suffers from serious motion sickness. 

The is EXTREMELY, LUDICROUS ROCKY. Nevertheless, how can one not love jeep rides!!! Still remember my last jeep ride was in Mt. Bromo but it was nothing compared to this as our driver is sooooo awesome because he drift drift drifted like Tokyo drift!!!!!!!!!


There's like 3 different tour - the short, medium and the long. Of course we took the short one as we were a little bit time tight though the price difference isn't alot.  The difference in the tour is not only the length of the trip but also the different drop off points - of course the longer once cover more corners of Mt. Merapi.

Short tour: 45,000idr

First stop : Museum Sisa Hartaku



Actual furniture that were ruined by the eruption.

Second Stop: The Alien - Like - Stone

Nothing much to explore at the stop, just some picture taking session.

Third stop: Bunker Kaliadem

Apparently during the eruption, 2 men tried to escape into the bunker but forgetting there were a tiny window gap and that's how the were melted inside. P/S: There was a  foul smell when you enter the bunk and it's dark and you can feel the moist in the air.

.
.So scaredy cat Yong didnt wanna enter as she felt uncomfortable and emotional (ha ha ha)

Not forgetting some other random stops our driver guide stopped to let us to pictures. Oh and did i mention our driver is so freaking awesome?!?! His photography skills are so up level?!?!?!??!?!?!??!!??!?

Also, the initial plan was to actually hike Mt. Merapi but this two loser animals can't make it cos they're lazy as hell! Guess i'll have to wait till the next time to hike this wonderful mountain....... 

Nevertheless, Lava tour was dope!
