Wall climbing

Several months ago Vito and friends from school went to Kampung Bamboo Cimenyan - Bandung for an outbound training. Approximately 50 children accompanied by teachers and parents playing and adventuring various outbound games.

Outbound games revolve around activities designed to improve encouragement, leadership, communication skills, planning, teamwork, and motivation. Some of the available games such as wall climbing, Tarzan swing, Fish catching, slacklining, army zone, etc. The children were divided into teams and assigned tasks and activities for completion in a specified time. This must become a great and unforgettable experiences for them.

The Parents

While the children were following the games. The parents made achievement and performance which reviewed in group discussions that enhance performance or lead to failure. We also followed some fun games.

All children followed the games guided by the instructors. They're so excited. all passed without a hitch. The last game was catching fish by hand accompanied by the teachers, they trowed themselves into the mud pond and the parents yelled and gave encouragement to them.

Following outbound activity is a combined effort with an extraordinary passion for adventure and nature for the children, teachers, and the parents as well. We all really enjoyed the time and experiences in Kampung Bamboo! What a fun and happy day!

The Classic Tale of Sleeping Beauty: Briar-Rose

We must be familiar with fairy tales. I used to listen to fairy tale stories when I was a child, my favorite was the bed time stories. Fairy tales generally take place in a far-off place and time, typically begin with “Once upon a time.” In the land of fairy tales, magical happens. A fairy tale often tells the story of an individual, takes into the entire life, and generally ends happily. The traditional and common closing line of a fairy tale is, “...and they lived happily ever after.” In the early 19th century, the German brothers Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, scholars who studied folklore, linguistics, and literary history, began collecting and recording old German folktales. The tales were often full of supernatural elements such as witches, talking animals, and magical kingdoms. One of the tales that the Grimm brothers collected was a version of the story of Sleeping Beauty known as Briar-Rose.

My Experience Visiting Borobudur

Borobudur temple is one of the premier tourist objects in Indonesia. Several years ago I decided to go to Yogyakarta as a destination for cultural tourism. I had the opportunity to get into Keraton Yogyakarta, it's such a priceless experience. Then I scheduled a visit to Borobudur and Prambanan temples. My experience visiting Borobudur temple was quite exciting. From Yogyakarta I headed to Borobudur in the morning, after breakfast at the hotel. Borobudur is located about 40 km from the city of Yogyakarta or about 100 km from Semarang. Administratively Borobudur including the district of Magelang, Central Java. So many people thought that Borobudur is located in Yogyakarta, it is actually located in Magelang.
