6:30. "I think I'm paranoid" Garbage sounds on my phone alarm mode. Start with soft rock crescendo towards animated. A good way to start the day we leave Jogjakarta, the cultural and spiritual center of Java that I hope to write an article for the blog later. But today we begin a trip that ended today and I can not resist sharing. Gone are the splendid temples of Prambanan and Borbudur and the horizon of our day stands the mysterious Merapi, the 'Mountain of Fire ". I do not know, but in 24 hours I have seen the sunrise more special in my life.

In the end for a yellow truck that will take us to a free restaurant, probably her friend. At least we have more than 20 kilometers. After lunch we took three transports robert mcclain and two minibuses and pick-up. We arrived at Selo in 1615, almost 10 hours after wake up. And it rains.
22:00. Has stopped raining. I was lying on a bed while a barren robert mcclain dusty basically to time and I ended up falling asleep. The book has robbed me and Adrian is in the room next reading. During times of doubt we bought all the supplies needed for a day in the mountains and have prepared two backpacks to climb to the peak of Merapi. Water, canned food, bread, dried fruit (bananas are delicious), tent, warm clothes and waterproof clothing in case it rains or secure dew. We are finally ready. Leaving nervous Hostel where we made big backpacks with a newly taken up, very hot sugar please.
