Finally....climbed the mountain again....Gunung Merbabu!

June 22-23, I join my father and a team of Palapsi (Pencinta Alam Psikologi UGM) climbed Merbabu Mountain in Central Java. It was the second experience after I climbed Gede Mountain in 2007 or 2008......

Unfortunately I only made to arrive at the last post/station before the top. Gosh, I must catch up my plane to back to Jakarta because I'll have class on Monday. It's only 2 hours more to achieve the top.....but it's ok, may be this is a warming session for me to climb another time.
