Another Level of Escape: Go Nature -
I'm sorry for being MIA for almost a month. I have been so busy lately. Rushing here and there for teaching and taking course. Phew ~~~ Thank you that everything was over and going quite fine :D
For being so hectic before, going to malls or hanging out in cafes are simply not enough for me. My friends had planned a trip to go jungle tracking and I make a choice to join :)
Waking up so early in the morning to prepare ourselves for the trip didn't lower our excitement to meet this place called "The Immortal Pond" (Indonesian: Kolam Abadi). It is only one hour drive from Binjai, but not for us.To arrive there, we have to drive for two hours from the place we live. But, before arriving there, we stopped at local Nasi Padang restaurant nearbyto pack our lunch because there is nothing sold inside the jungle. (Well, actually there is one place but they only sell PopMie and some drinks).

We actually went to two places. The first one is Air Terjun Tongkat.

| The waterfall with the stick |

| Playing with Jo ;) hehe |

| Posing for a picture :p |
Pretty place, yes? Nice place to feel refreshed and relax. Nevertheless, to reach it, we have to come down with the longest ladder I have ever been. It is 40-METRES HEIGHT with 78 step ladders. Can you imagine guys?? I almost fainted (no, I was not). It's absolutely NO JOKE. Argghhhhhhh......... And it's very steep. I mean it is 90-degree. Wow! Wow! Wow!
 |
| The ladder does not stop there. There is more of it upstairs x.x |
 |
| It is steep, for sure! |
Second place to visit is Kolam Abadi.
 |
| Water is suppa clear, but it is very cold...brbrbrrr.. |
Can't show you more pictures in Kolam Abadibecause we have to swim further and the more we go, the deeper the river is. The highlight of the trip is CLIFF JUMPING >.< If you are not afraid of height, go for it! Jump jump jump :) You'll love it. I tried once :p Some of my friends jumped twice and the others even more.. Hahaa..
#QuickTipsfromJess:
- Make sure your body is fit because the track can't be underestimated. It's quite hard for some people who don't sweat a lot. (don't do a lot of physical exercise)
- Wear comfortable clothes. If you are willing to wear long jeans, choose the one with light material. After you plunge yourself into the water, you'll have to walk back with those clothes. If your jeans are heavy, it will slow down your move when you walk back.
- A little drinking will do fine. Our friend told us that drinking a lot makes you more tired. So, limit your drink.
So, thank you for reading :)
I hope you enjoy your weekend. Let's have fun with another week :D
PS: Try local nira. It is a kind of drink before it turns into palm wine (Indonesian:tuak)
