We go to BEACH today…
Yeah… to the beach… it Srawu Beach
in Pacitan… about 4 hours trip with automobile from my place
(solo).
Wake up at 8am, make coffe, get some
breakfast, real fast. Then go to the car rental.
After we pick up some friend at their
Homestay, finally we go to the beach.(Camilla)
Actually this is unplanned trip for us.
This trip is only planned for Gundul and his girlfriend from germany,
Milli . But somebody heard it ad spread it away, so here I am with
Gundul, Milli, Dursley, Anika, and Mandus. We go at 10 am. It was
very long and hard trip. The road is really bumpy and dangerous. I
have to driven about 4 hours till we arive to the beach.
Befor we got to the beach, many fun and
interesting this are too valuable to missed. Like taking picture near
by the big dam in wonogiri (Gajah Mungkur dam), looking for those
villagers which work together to make others houses (Gotong Royong),
taking photograph of an old ‘Beringin’ tree which more than
500years old and git something mystical on it, and some others thing.
Finnaly we got to the beach. Camilla
and Anika was look very anthusiasme, Dursley and Mandus was happy,
and Gundul too. For me, after 4 hours driving trough bumpy
dangerouslly roads with less rest, my first oppinion was “Damn!
This is worth enough!” but then, when I jump off from the car, open
my shirt and take a run to the sea… “Shit!!!” the beach was
full with blue poisonfull jellyfish. I can’t swim there. Although
there is no jellyfish on the second beach. They had many rocks on the
beach, so I can’t swim at all, if you swim, the wave will takes you
to the rocks. “Damn again!!!”
Gundul got his own satisfaction by
together with Camilla on the beach. Anika hunt for some shells,
Mandus fell the unpollutant air of the seaside, and Dursley climb to
the hill to saw the seaside from another place. And how about me….
Just laying down on the sand… watching beautifull movement and
expresion of Anika which looking an interesting shells. Watching and
fell the seaside air and winds till I got asleep on the nice and warm
white sand…
About 3pm we moved to the third beach
and enjoying some fruits, leaving Camilla and Gundul on the second
beach. Seating on the beach, eat some fruits, listening SoulJah Music
played on Auto Tape recorder, fell the wind and the sunshine, Anika
and Dursley playing guitar. Ouhg…. What a perfect symphony for me…
just laying on the chair and smoking, and enjoy it all…
We’ve go back after enjoying the
sunset… I’verecord the sunset on my video camera so I could enjoy
t at home, but sure I can’t fell the same situation again. Cause
there was no beautifull girl like Anika beside me. This August 21st
they have to came back to Germany. Right on my birthday.
It’s more difficult to drive back to
Solo cause it was dark and the roads was really bumpy. And also we
got no roadlight too. It makes me remember when I was goes to Sumbawa
and to Sumatra with jeep to do an adventure on the jungle. The
difference is only the auto I used yesterday is a Van called Kijang
which only 2 wheel drive, not 4 wheel drive like my jeep. Too pitty
that after I got hard driving whole day I’ve got to lost my cap and
Anika lost her purse. But, afterall its really great experience.
Alhough we got another mystical experince when we drive back to Solo.
‘I really saw the road was straight’ and Mandus was see it too.
But suddenly my steering turn to right and I push the brake really
deep and the real road is go to the right. I don’t know really, but
is there any possibility that me and Mandush got same illusion about
the straight road, cause the real road was right turn.
Damn again!!! I have to drive really
hard but Gundul and Camilla fell asleep in the back seat. Mandus and
Dursley got their own discussion in Germany language that I don’t
even understand it, its more like listening to the another planet
radio. And Anika who seat by my side is listening to the music with
her earphone. I have to driven alone, silent, and quiet…..
But… it’s all worth enough for the
beach….
