Our first trip.......


Semarang, the first city that I traveled with fatty kitty. The first time I came there, I just felt that it's looked like the old city. So many heritage buildings, that were built in the colonial era, are stood in this city. I really impressed with those buildings. Perhaps, it's bcos my educational background is civil engineering, so everything that related with the structural and building are always impressing me. :-)

Day 1...... After taking a long trip by train, we were picked up by Novotel's staff to take us to the Novotel hotel. During our first afternoon, we walked along Pemuda street, going to Lawang Sewu, which is known as scariest place in Semarang, but for momo it's not scary at all.

As always, momo didn't miss that moment to ask fatty kitty to take a picture of hers. In addition, Aa' also took the picture, off course more less than momo :-p. In Pemuda street, there is "mbak Lien" lumpia corner. Just believe me, that lumpia is so "lecker"..... If you go to Semarang, you should try that lumpia and I guarantee, u will get addicted.

At nite, we took a tour around Simpang Lima. We were just having sightseeing of Saturday nite's market. And then, we bought "tempe mendoan and tahu petis. ehhhhhhhmmm...yummmmy, another snack that u should try after lumpia and it was ended by drinking "wedang jahe", favorite beverage of momo. At the end of nite, we went back to the hotel by Becak......(momo was so sleepy..ZZzzz)

to be continued on day 2....................

What a Wonderful World



I feel so peaceful today....I just feel that the weather is amazing now and people live in serenity. Perhaps it's bcos the affect of the song that I've recently listened. It's sung by Louis Armstrong, entitled "What a Wonderful World "

Here's the lyrics......

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you....
And I Think to my self, What a wonderful world

I see skies of blue and clouds of white....
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to my self, What a wonderful world

The colours of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands, saying "How do you do?"

I hear babies crying, I watch them grow....
They'll learn much more than I'll ever know
And I think to my self, What a wonderful world
Yes, I think to my self, What a wonderful world........

Poem

Kemarin aku sendirian di dunia ini, kekasih
Dan kesendirianku sebengis kematian.

Kemarin diriku adalah sepatah kata yang tak bersuara,
di dalam pikiran malam.

Hari ini aku menjelma menjadi sebuah nyanyian,
menyenangkan di atas lidah hari.

Dan ini berlangsung dalam semenit....
Dari sang waktu yang melahirkan sekilasan pandang.....
sepatah kata....
sebuah desakan...
dan,...sekecup ciuman

(by Kahlil Gibran)
