In 2016 my boss invites us to visit Sembalun. Sembalun is a highland tourist area in Lombok Island. This area very very cold, of cource.
The trip from Mataram to there -/+ 5 hours. At there so foggy and greeny. Then we stopped by in some spot to take some pics on our way.
1. Hydrangea Flowers
2. Fog spot, we even can exhale some little smoke from our mouth cause the cold weather up there.

3.Tent to rent at Pesona Rinjani Resort
We one night in Pesona Rinjani Bungalow (Hotel and restaurant). Coz we have rather huge group, and the lodge is limitet, so half of us (male teams) slept in the tents which are provided by the bungalow. Jadi pengin nginep ditenda juga, tapi nggak deh. At there so coldddd, moreover inside the lodge, apalagi diluar.

4. The hotel also provided the barbeque tools for the customers

5. Mountain scenery from the lodge. Langsung mengarah ke gunung. My friend told me thats Rinjani Mountain,
CMIIW. And because that day was on August, the hotel gives a sense of
independent day. Indonesia flags in some spots.

6. Morning sun scenery with hills surrounded part 1. Instead of had breakfast inside restaurant, some of us prefer to sat outside on the grass. Menyatu dengan alam. lol

14. Strawberry farm. Menurut salah satu temanku yang berasal dari Tegal memetik dan membawa
pulang strawberry di kebun di Tegal adalah gratis. Sayangnya disini
nggak seperti di sanan. Di Sembalun kalau memetik strawberry dan makan
di tempat sepuasnya bayar Rp10.000, tapi kalau mau bawa pulang bayar
perkilonya harganya Rp40.000. Hmmm.

terkenal dengan lesehan ikan-ikanan air tawar dan sayuran tradisional,
seperti pelecing.
