Unexpected Umbul Ponggok


Jogja? Yap, jogja is the special city in Central Java. Believe it or not there are a lot of stranger came to holiday here because Jogja have many destinations that you should visit. For shopping? Yap.. you can get it almost at every street,  malioboro? Yaa.. you know about it, but how about traveling ? Don’t worry, Jogja also serve amazing place for traveling and the place that was famous among a teenagers now is Umbul Ponggok, Klaten. Do you ever hear that?  Have instagram? You will see picture of Umbul Ponggok there.

It was not my first trip to Jogja, but I thought it can call the exhausting experience. I went to Jogja with my freak-partner by motorcycle from Purwokerto. At that time raining season was on Purwokerto and we were set off in the evening. As you know, along the way we got wetness and awkk! It was so disgusting. Rain and cold wind struck us, it felt like needle stabbing. Just jacket and raincoats that we had, but with him it was like Bollywood movie. Two people who was sing and dancing under the rain. So romantic <3

Next day, we had a plan to visit the place that was famous on Instagram. At 10 pm we were set off and it took almost 30 minutes. In the middle of the journey we got incident, our motorcycle ran over something like nail and the tire leaked. Huft.. Fortunately, the workshop not far from where we were got the incident. Okay, we waited almost 30 minutes and our enthusiastic about that place was shrinking. And added between us never went there before and we were just used Google maps. Continuing the journey and you know? We were lost. Google map was wrong or just I cannot read the map? Hahaha…. We were enjoyed the view, as you know Google still let us got lost in the beautiful view where we cannot saw in the city. 

Nearly two-hour our journey, finally we arrived at Umbul Ponggok. Umbul Ponggok is artificial pool that had a real tear from the mountain. It made like in the sea, there was freshwater fish, stone, freshwater plant, and etc. I’m so excited and cannot wait to swim with freshwater fish. Umbul Ponggok also provides tools such as swimming goggles, buoys, fins and etc. they rent this tools with a cheap price. Swimming with freshwater fish very enjoyable, that was my first experience. Hmm.. I think, I ever swimming in the small waterfall with fish but I cannot interact directly like in Ponggok.

The sun had not as warm as before, time to get out from the pool and took a shower. After that, we were eating in the stall at the edge. Can you guess what I see? I’m so shocked about what happened. Many woman washed clothes alongside the pool. You know what I thought at that time? Hope all fish will be alright, because it was doesn’t make sense. Why they doing that? That I know it was a tourist location, so the local people should keep that place better, right? Okay! No prob. I got out from the pool and I was not there when the woman washed.  

Time showed at 6 am, we prepared to back and used Google Map again. Hope, the current events did not reoccur. Guess what? Oh My God, our lamp motorcycle off. It so poor, we got trouble when we set off until we were back. Drive slowly as long as it can be safely. We were through Klaten city and we decided to take a rest and eat something. After that we back about at 9 am.

That was the day that I can unexpected. How much the incident that I got but it was fun and nice the experience. As you know, with the experience we can learn about who you are and how we get through it. Learn not only with teacher in a school, but experience is the teacher of all things. Get your experience more and enjoy it !
