Bogor Botanical Garden One Day Trip!

Hello guys! This is the first time I write about my experience in my blog. Actually this is my english task and I have to do it, but I also love to share my story too. Happy reading! :D

It was still the semester break, the first day of September 2016, me and my friends planned to visit Bogor Botanical Garden. They are my classmates; Meli, Anjar, Alan, and Radit.

At first we promised to gather at Pondok Cina Station at 09.30 a.m., but at the end we all gathered at 11.00 a.m (you all know Indonesian right? :p), after we all gathered (the four of us, because Radit’s home is in Bogor he waited us there) we left Pondok Cina Station and we arrived at Bogor Station around 12.00 p.m. After we arrived at Bogor Station, we straightly went to Bogor Botanical Garden by angkot. We arrived there around 12.30 p.m. and Radit already waited for us there.

We had lunch first, across the Bogor Botanical Garden at Mie Ayam Restaurant. We all ordered Mie Ayam Baso, and sweet ice tea for the drink. After our tummy had already full, we walked again to Bogor Botanical Garden to buy the ticket to enter the garden.

Our first shoot :D

Then we took the photo at the (well I didn’t know what this place was called).

And then we walked to the musholla to pray, it was a very very very hot sunny day :’’’ Meli and me, we put on our lipstick first (hahaha that’s what’s girls do, right?) so we won’t looked so pale when we were taking photos :p. And I still remember how Anjar Alan and Radit curious about the shades of lipsticks. Hmm, boys.....

We still walked around and we were tired :’ so we sat at the chair provided there. But we never forgot to take some pictures :D
Hello from us!

After we took some pictures there, we were curious about the gate, the red hanging gate which had been talked by many people. It called Jembatan cinta lol. Honestly, i was really scared because that hanging gate cannot hold more than 10 people (if I’m not mistaken) and there were some visitors beside us, they also wanted to take some photos. So we waited for them, because that thing was keep swaying :’D. But we never forgot to take pictures at that swaying-hanging-gate of course! :p

This is Alan
This is Anjar

After we visited the red-hanging-creepy-gate, we finally found the perfect place to take some nice pictures :D yes it was a green green grass! (again, I didn’t know what’s the name of the place), there were some people there, a group who celebrated their friend’s birthday, elementary school students who were in school picnic (maybe?), and 3 girls who took pictures together.


Left to right : Meli, Anjar, Me, Alan, and in the center was Radit :D

Our first pict at the green green grass :p we were sitting at that photo, Meli put the camera and we use the timer because at first we were too shy to asked a person for taking us some pictures, but later we ask someone (yeah I’ll get to that part later).

After that, I asked Meli to take a picture of me while sitting in the green grass (yes, took a picture when you were sitting will not make you look fat) so I asked her :D and we still took some pictures together one by one (really this green grass thing was the best place to take a pictures than everywhere in the garden) and finally we asked someone to take our pictures together......

Aaaand it was a blur :’) (well, there were many pictures that blurred because the tempered glass of the camera was too dark but it’s okay :)) ) because we asked an elementary student to take the pictures of five of us together while he was playing football. 

Nevermind kiddo, thankyouuu :D
After we took some pictures (again) at the green green grass, we finally decided to go home because it was already cloudy there. We walked out the garden and I bought some Tales Bogor because my mum asked for it :’ that thing was heavy to carry :(.

We went back to Bogor Station by angkot, and when we arrived there, it was starting to rain there :’ so we went to musholla first in the station, and Alhamdulillah after we pray Ashar, the rain stopped :D.

Finally we got in to the train and fortunately, we got the seat :D it was a tiring day but it was worth it! We laughed a lot there, had good time, and of course got some pictures together! But at the end of the day, in the train, there were something funny. First, Anjar slept at the train and the position was very funny :’) and second, Alan was tired too he forgot that we should get off at the Pondok Cina Station, he thought that Depok Baru Station is Pondok Cina Station, he lost his focus :’) hahaha I know if I tell you right know it might be not funny, but that time it was :)).

Finally we arrived at the Pondok Cina Station, Alan went home by his motorcycle, Anjar took an angkot with me and Meli, because I wanted to go to Meli’s boarding house. It was raining again, we waited for 30 minutes and then I went home with Meli by her motorcycle. Finally, I arrived home and feel so happy that day :D.




P.S : I'm sorry for the grammar alert (or something) in this post because I'm still learning :D
