One day off to Dieng

Yesterday, we took one day off. We had a loooot of fun. Kind of refreshing. Haha. After sh*t that we have been through :p

02:00 am alarm sounded. We were getting ready to catch a sunrise, fellas.

03:00 am we were picked up. The journey from Wonosobo city to Dieng took about 1 hour.

04:05 am we reached Dieng. The road was so quiet because yesterday was weekday. Our vehicle slowed. We can't ask anyone. Thanks two of us already got there last week.

04:30 am Subuh prayer time. After that we start hiking. We almost late to catch the sunrise. Dark. Slippery (rocky) road. Extremely cold. Out of breath. But, we didn't give up. Five of us reached Sikunir Peak at 05:13 am.

Finally, sunrise :3

Did you see me? :p

6:43 am full team met up!

07:08 am we had yummy breakfast. Yeah, the best thing to do after hiking is make yourself warm guys. One cup of tea or coffee maybe enough.

NB: don't forget to bring your gloves, mask, and jacket if you wanna go to Sikunir at dawn.

07:30 am we went to the next spot, Dieng Plateau Theater. We were to early got there, the theater still closed. So, we change our plan to Batu Ratapan Angin.

07:58 am you will find the nearer but steeper road to go to Batu Ratapan Angin. Still, worth to try.

Telaga Warna from Batu Ratapan Angin

09:10 am next, we take a look Telaga Warna, closer. You will smell some sulfur in there. They said, this lake was colored blue, green and yellow or colorful like a rainbow before. But, nowadays only colored green. Maybe because the ecosystem has changed :(

The green Telaga Warna

09:36 am you need plenty of time to surround the whole Telaga Warna. Pretty wide enough to running over there. Haha. Because the sun shine so brightly, we gave up to finish one lap :p

09:55 am we moved to Kawah Sikidang.

10:13 am the pungent sulfur smell will get into your nose. Put your mask on, tightly. Even though you already use mask, the sulfur smell still rich, everywhere around this place.

This is Kawah.

This is Sikidang.

11:11 am the last destination, Candi Arjuna. Unfortunately, this temples were being restored. Only one temple that stands upright.

11:25 am don't forget to traveling, take one day off and you can go to many places in Dieng :D
