gunung nglanggeran

It was night and rain.... again. Why is that? Well because we love rain so much, we adore and worship rain haahaaa and it's because of the wet dry season. More and more rain during dry season, crazy global warming effect.
That evening, we catch up our friend Anjas who just mudik from the States, we were agreed to have really cheap wine that night.
After a short heavy and ridiculous rain with strong wind we went to Nglanggeran hill, an extinct old volcano just south east of Jogjakarta.
Short 45 minutes ride it was, thru a mild drizzle. 
My bumblebee take me away to the hillfoot, where we should park our vehicles and pay the ticket and insurance for the venue. The local village run that place, it's nice to see local social entrepreneur village. Anyway we hiked for about 45 minutes thru 4 posts after we reach camping area near the summit (it's about 600m above sea level) we set up camp, built tent, set camp fire, started with coffee, then opened 2 bottles of really cheap wine.
All night my friend kept playing the heartbroken almost suicidal rock songs from 80s-90s, along with intense conversation about life.
It's enough, by 3am, descended, head back to the city, faced the reality of final exam by 7.30am.
