2Days1Night Holiday in Puncak

Friday last week, got Josh's weekly schedule and found out that he will holiday on Wednesday also.
It's same with Daddy.
At first, I didn't plan to have out of town holiday, but then everything changed since the schedule match it.

Where to Go?
We choose Puncak over Anyer or Bandung, due to weather and distance. We want a fresh cold weather since Jakarta has been in high temperature for recent time. Considering the distance, the nearest one is Puncak.

Where to Sleep?
First we want to try Pesona Alam, might be the newest one, but all the room fully booked for Wednesday, then we switch to Seruni 3, Gunung Salak.

Review of our Stay.
We stayed for one night, we got the room on 443, as we choose the highest floor.
The mountain view during day and night time behind the huge glass window was one of the great thing.
The room is spacious. The facilities provided is all ok.
But, because we stayed a day before moeslim Idul Adha day, at night till morning we could hear they were praying through loudspeaker. The room is not fully sound proof cause it's didn't have an aircon, For people who seek a quiet place, I think if might be ok for the other day.
Breakfast was ok.
We try the swimming pool in the morning, the water not too clean, and the fountain water in the pool was not switch on. Don't know whether it's will be on the weekend only, but considering our stay was on the holiday season, they should somehow set it on?!
Overall, all it's ok.

Where we Eat?
After stay, we concern about eating :).
Breakfast:
Calvin drive from Jakarta at 6am, and we arrived in Puncak area around 7.30am.
We headed to Puncak Pass and Cipanas Area, we find Amen Express restaurant, which already open from 7am everyday. We ordered Dimsum and Noodle and Porridge. For the price and quality, it's ok :). Will be back if we stayed in Puncak again.

Lunch:
After visiting Taman Cibodas, on the way back, we drop in Bumi Aki Restaurant.
The view from the Restaurant was nice. Nice means, you got an open air and see the mountain :).
Ordered, Gurame Bakar, Sate Ayam, Tongseng Kambing, Gado-Gado, Tempe Mendoan, etc, all the taste was nice, only it's to spicy for me and Josh.
One thing that brother me, all eating place allowed you to smoke, and it's completely mess up the meal if someone smoke beside you. We just want to breath the fresh air, and suddenly it's combine with smoke? hmmm....
We need to search for table which the guest beside us was not put the cigarette on the table.
Yes, we find it out sit beside the girl table, but hey, at the end of meal, even the girl smoke, ups.... can't judge the book by it's cover >.<.

Dinner:
We have checked in Hotel, and the traffic for the night was all red in transport application.
We heard from one of our friend, we could order outside food, and yes, we end up ordered KFC delivery. At least we didn't need to trap in the jam.

The Next Day, We have late lunch in Bumi Nini (still related to Bumi Aki), and Cimory Mountain View. Food taste better in Bumi Nini for it's not to spicy, and in Cimory, food so so, only for hang out.

Where do we Visit in Puncak?
As Calvin, Josh and Mom never visiting inside Cibodas waterfall, we headed there. Lil thing, I was mistakenly bring them to a small waterfall, instead as the one I tought. Later on I have found out, I shall go the Cibereum Waterfall.

The next day, after check out, we going down and try to visit Curug Cilember.
Cause it's on holiday season, it's just too crowd.
From the entrance to Curug 7, the track still ok. But to continue to the next curug, not recommended for small children or elders, a steep slope along the way.
I try it with Josh, and I feel proud of lil Josh, he could follow me and even it's hard, he keep continuing it till the end.

Overall, we got to experience a new things. I wish one day we could go camping together in the mountain.
Wait for it!
