“Nature gives you the face you have at twenty; it is up to you to merit the face you have at fifty.



Our family just recently visit a gorgeous Tea plantation Park up on the mountain in indonesia.  This place is one colder area in indonesia because it sits up on the hill side of the mountain.  It's a different feeling to be here surrounded by the greenery.  The air is still fresh, away from the pollution.   The life around here is so simple.  I saw tea farmers in their traditional transportation, carriage pulled by horses to the plantation.  The ladies selling rice cakes to the visitors while their kids playing barefooted on the ground.  People were so friendly there.  It seems to me that these people are less worry people...they only worry about today, and tomorrow is another day, unlike me the city people who has so much in her mind, as if i'm responsible for everyone in this planet ...




We actually plan to go to the church, but we left home a little late, so we missed the church service.  That's why i dressed like this.  This is actually my pregnancy dress I brought from California.  I got it altered twice at a tailor here in Indonesia, and it's still big for me.  It cost me less than 5USD.  It's quite bargain here.





I love these shoes...they're one gorgeous color... 






This is one way of making a living in this area.  The lady who owns this little shop-on-wheels sells cooked Ramen, coffee and water.  There's hardly anyone passing this street.  In a day, she would only make less than 5 USD... 



I thought these two buckets are funny.  They're too small for waste basket....sitting out of nowhere on the hill.. i guess one is green waste... the other one maybe for flammable materials.  



Wishing everyone a Wonderful weekend
