When we heard about Thousand Island (near Jakarta) what would we say? Ooow too much or where is or what's there? Yes too many island there, it's all about 136 little islands. One of the most popular with a beautiful view is Tidung Island. I visited here on April 1, I went with my two brothers. We went with fishermen's boat from Muara Angke. This boat only already on 06.30 or 13.00, just paid Rp 33.000,- each person. We take 2 - 3 hours sea travel, because the boat only 20-30km/h.

We stayed for 2 days 1 night at homestay, there's no hotel here just homestay. Per night we paid Rp 200.000,- until Rp 300.000,- one room with bathroom, AC, and bicycle.

When we got there, we take the snorkle set, bicycle and ride to "Jembatan Cinta" (Love Bridge) to snorkeling. Yes we take a wonderful snorkeling spot near "Jembatan Cinta".

Everybody know that Javanese people are nice, brown and sweet. Their attitude are mild and tenacious. Like what they eat, much food are made by Javanese people have a sweet taste. Sugar is identical to invitor ants. So, Javanese people put sugar for every food to invite people appetite.

Another unique experience when I work at Cianjur Selatan, much people in that village have high blood pressure and diabetes. When I tried to check them and explore the causes because they always eat with rice and salt.
