Pramuka Island, I saw the Orion constellation

in the middle of making my assignment, im still remember this blog.. hahaha
okay this post is about traveling again :p but i just take 2 days to did this trip. one of my friends risma, she had a birthday so she invited us to celebrate her birthday in Pramuka Island which is part of "Thousand Islands" known as Kepulauan Seribu. Thousand Islands is the only regency of Jakarta, Indonesia. A string of 105 islands stretching 45 kilometres north into the Java Sea, with the closest lying in Jakarta Bay only a few kilometres off mainland Jakarta. (source here). First, we went to Muara Angke (which is s fish market) at 7am, get a boat to cross and that the last time you can get at that day because over 7 am is no more boat.. yeah you should come earlier.. Oh gosh, we almost left out, we paid IDR 30.000/person for the ticket boat one way. it takes 2-3 hours to go there and we took much photo on the boat ehehehehe..
