Java
You are my morning coffee
My java
My caffeine
And my wake-up call
Each morning
And each day
You wake me with kisses
Change my night dreams
To day dreams
Smile like a sun rising
And give me a thousand reasons
To rise and shine
You are my café au lai
My cappuccino
Hot stuff
Jamocha
Joe
Full of punch
Soft with the touches
And tender like the night
You perk me up
Pick me up
And make my day

Kukup is a white sandy beach with a path that cut through hills that connect it to the beach Baron. On this beach there is a coral island is also connected by bridges senggol. From the top of this island we can see a fairly broad view of the coast and very beautiful with large waves. Although during the day, if we are on this coral island, the weather will remain cool because the wind was blowing quite hard.

Javan langurs are found across the rainforest habitats of Indonesia on the islands of Java, Bali and Lombok. There are two species of Javan langur (Eastern and Western) that are geographically isolated within this broader habitat range. A tree-dwelling species that is active during the day, Javan langurs feed primarily on leaves, flowers and fruit.
Borobudur, is a 9th-century Mahayana Buddhist monument in Magelang. The monument consists of six square platforms topped by three circular platforms, and is decorated with 2,672 relief panels and 504 Buddha statues. A main dome, located at the center of the top platform, is surrounded by 72 Buddha statues seated inside a perforated stupa.
Built in the 9th century during the reign of the Sailendra Dynasty, the temple’s design in Gupta architecture reflects India's influence on the region, yet there are enough indigenous scenes and elements incorporated to make Borobudur uniquely Indonesian. The monument is both a shrine to the Lord Buddha and a place for Buddhist pilgrimage. The journey for pilgrims begins at the base of the monument and follows a path around the monument and ascends to the top through three levels symbolic of Buddhist cosmology: Kāmadhātu (the world of desire), Rupadhatu (the world of forms) and Arupadhatu (the world of formlessness). The monument guides pilgrims through an extensive system of stairways and corridors with 1,460 narrative relief panels on the walls and the balustrades.
Evidence suggest Borobudur was constructed in the 9th century and abandoned following the 14th century decline of Buddhist and Hindu kingdoms in Java, and the Javanese conversion to Islam.Worldwide knowledge of its existence was sparked in 1814 by Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, then the British ruler of Java, who was advised of its location by native Indonesians. Borobudur has since been preserved through several restorations. The largest restoration project was undertaken between 1975 and 1982 by the Indonesian government and UNESCO, following which the monument was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Borobudur is still used for pilgrimage; once a year Buddhists in Indonesia celebrate Vesak at the monument, and Borobudur is Indonesia's single most visited tourist attraction.[

Scientific name: Lonchura oryzivora
Vulnerable to the errors of others
Standing your ground in the confidence of humanity
Vulnerable to the wilful anger of others
Maintaining your time in place despite the inconvenience
Vulnerable to the impatience of others
Knowingly at risk and praying for mercy
The road ahead
The place of destination
My life in the hand of machines
Shield me from harm
Protect me from progress
