Lasampung and Sasumpuan Island

Hello September,

Udah pernah nonton film 5cm kan? Tau donk gimana indahnya Gunung Bromo dan pemandangan pemandangan gunung-gunung lain di sekitarnya? Yap, abis nonton pilem itu semua bakal makin setuju deh kalo dibilang bahwa: Indonesia is definitely beautiful. Dan kejaiban alam di Indonesia gak hanya Gunung Bromo aja. Ada ratusan gunung lain dengan inner beauty nya masing-masing. Walaupun kadang gunung-gunung itu udah terendam oleh air sejak ratusan bahkan ribuan tahun lampau akibat permukaan laut yang terus naik, buat saya sebuah pulau dan gugusan karangnya tetap merupakan sebuah gunung yang mencuat dari dasar laut. Maksa yah =p hehehe. Biarin. Tapi emang betul kok, kalo titik acuannya adalah dari dasar laut instead of above sea water level, maka Mount Everest pun harus rela tergusur dari daftar gunung yg tertinggi di dunia secara telah banyak ahli geologi yang menemukan bahwa banyak gunung lain yang lebih tinggi.

Singkat cerita kemarin kami ngebolang ke Pulau Sasumpuan. Perjalanan dengan ketinting selama 3 jam dari desa Uso Batui jadi ga kerasa setelah tiba di lokasi snorkeling. Bau asep mesin diesel yang nempel di baju campur peliket garam tambah sengatan matahari seolah sirna berganti harumnya pantai pasir putih dan ombak.

We had a good time snorkeling when the wind did not blow at all. Thus the water level is relatively low.

See? Even from above water you could see the coral and blue fishes. Absolutely Amazing

Actually, flying and swimming is the same: moving inside a fluid; wether it is air or water hehe. BTW, I really do love this snorkeling experiences

Travelling to an inhabitant island make us packed with fresh fishes and instant Noodle (Indomie) that cooked and roasted at the beach.
Traveling to an inhabitant island make us have to be ready and well prepared, especially for meal. That’s why, we packed with fresh fishes and instant Noodle (Indomie) that will be cooked and roasted at the beach for lunch.
