Krakatoa (Indonesian: Krakatau) part 2

In February 1780, the crews of HMS Resolution and HMS Discovery, on the way home after Captain James Cook's death in Hawaiʻi, stopped for a few days on Krakatoa. They found two springs on the island, one fresh water and the other hot. They described the natives who then lived on the island as "friendly" and made several sketches. (In his journal, John Ledyard calls the island "Cocoterra".)

--> Dutch activityIn 1620 the Dutch set up a naval station on the islands and somewhat later a shipyard was built. Sometime in the late 17th century an attempt was made to establish a pepper plantation on Krakatoa but the islands were generally ignored by Dutch colonial authorities.

mendaki gunung kawi (part 2)

Kami mencoba mendaki gunung kawi meski terkena cukup angker, toh kami punya pemandu yang cukup handal salah satu kawan ku. Zazun namanya. Kami packing dan persiapan di kampus berangkat dengan APV kampus di antar bapak Hery dosen kemahasiswaan kami. Kami berangkat pagi. Sampai di gerbang kawisari kami harus istirahat berjalan hingga perkebunan teh senggrong. Disanalah kami mempersiapkan segalanya sebelum melangkah memuncak. Kami berangkat cukup sore, sehingga memaksa kami untuk membangun tenda di pos 1. Selain gelap, hujan deras juga mengguyur kami sehingga memaksa malam itu kami berkemah. Pagi2 kami bergegas untuk melanjutkan perjalanan, namun hari keburu sore sehingga kembali lagi kami tak bisa mencapai puncak dan harus puas di pos ke 5. Selain hujan yang cukup deras, badai gunung juga mengahajar kami. Kami akan memuncak esok hari.

Pagi hari cuaca cukup tenang meski kabut tak dapat menghilang. Tenda kami biarkan tetap di pos 5, tim di bagi 2. Ada yang memuncak sambil mencari air, ada yang tunggu tenda. Karena saya belum pernah mencapai puncak, saya memilih untuk ikut ke puncak bersama beberapa kawan yang lain. Seperti halnya di pos 5, kabut tebal dan angin kencang namun dengan kualitas lebih besar menerpa kami. Dingin sekali di puncak kawi, sayang cuaca hari itu berkabut tebal sekali sehingga sulit untuk menikmati panorama gunung kawi. Seperti ini
