The most interesting thing here is the 'everyday discount' in all the kiosks! Isn't it great? Don't you wanna to buy?

Mushroom Restaurant

First, I want to say sorry to all my readers and followers for this long time absent, I have problem with my net. Here I want to share some photos that I took in a restaurant called 'Jejamuran' . This restaurant provide all menus about mushroom (mashroom means 'jamur' in Indonesian language), it is located in the north city of Yogya, about 30 km from Yogya's downtown, in a district named Sleman. Here are some photos that I took in the restaurant:

A paths in the garden

I took my kids to the park in the salak agro tourism, in Turi, Yogya, yesterday. This garden is located in the north of Yogya city, in Sleman regency, maybe it is about 20 or 25 km from Yogya downtown, in the middle between Yogya and Borobudur, the town which is the Borobudur temple located.
In this garden you can pick the fruits directly from the tree and eat it whatever you want, but we do not allowed to bring out the fruits. To enter the garden we charged IDR 3000, - or about US$ 3 cent.
But sorry to say, this garden looks didn't cared well. Its need a better maintained.
But the kids like it so much, especially, because they could picking the salak fruits from the trees -luckily the fruits were very sweet, delicious- it is a new experience for them.

A Trip To A Village

First, I wanna say sorry, this post is not about Yogya. These pictures was taken in Mirit, a village in Kebumen regency, central Java, it is located about 90 km from Yogya. I came to this village with my husband, delivering some goods to a customer, by riding our diesel car. I never visit this village before, delivering some goods to this village is our driver duties, but he leave today, so, I and my husband take his duties and enjoy the trip! Here I snapped some typical things there, the typical home and the local white cows. Most people in this village have these cows. Now, look at the home roof, most of homes there have roof like this one in this photo.
I also posting about this journey in my other blog: RURAL WORLD
