MY HOLIDAY AT CIREBON

              Last holiday, my family and I visited “Keraton Kasepuhan” in Cirebon. Keraton Kasepuhan is located not far from Pasar Kanoman, one of the market in Cirebon.
            We went there by train. We left for Cirebon at 8.30 a.m. and arrived at Cirebon Railway Station forty-five minutes later. Many becak drivers were offering their services to some passengers when we were out the railway station.
            We were very excited that finally we were in Cirebon. Soon we walked to Kanoman Street. We decided to eat soto as our breakfast. We were enjoying the soto while inhaling the fresh air. Not many vehicles were passing by that morning.
            At about 9.30 we headed to Keraton Kasepuhan on foot. We were chatting along the way. We talked about our experiences in the train. We also talked about Pasar Kanoman. We saw many people passing by and some other bargaining things. Many becak drivers were waiting for people to ride on their becaks.
            We arrived at “Keraton Kasepuhan” ten minutes later. My sister and I were amazed at the building. I couldn’t wait to see what was inside the building. My sister and I were taking some photographs when my mother bought the entrance tickets for all of us. The tickets were cheap enough. 
  
            There were one big palace and a large yard. There were children playing at the yard when we arrived. They all looked cheerful. My sister wanted to join them, but I told her to do it later. Then, we looked one of the most buildings, named “House Of The Sultan”. We saw information boards showing what people could see in the building.

            We spent there at least two hours in Keraton Kasepuhan. We left the place after having lunch together. We were very tired, but we were very happy.

Trend Finger BMX Dan Finger Skate Di Kalangan Anak Muda


Finger BMX dan Finger Skate memang sudah begitu mendunia di kalangan kita semua, khususnya di kalangan remaja. Permainan ini tidak membutuhkan tempat yang khusus, kecuali Skate dan BMX-nya. Kita bisa bermain permainan ini di mana saja, misalnya didalam rumah, dipekarangan rumah, bahkan bisa bermain dengan alat-alat tulis seperti buku, dll.
Pada awalnya, ide ditemukannya permainan ini ditemukan oleh seorang yang mulai berpikir kenapa kalau harus bermain Skate dan BMX harus di tempat khusus, akhirnya dia membuat miniatur yang didesain mirip sama dengan aslinya.
Di beberapa belahan dunia, seperti di Benua Eropa dan Benua Amerika, permainan ini mulai berkembeng pesat. Mulai dari anak-anak hingga orang dewasa, mereka semua sudah mahir untuk melakukan permainan ini.
Di Indonesia sendiri juga tak kalah mahirnya dengan Negara lain. Bahkan di beberapa kota besar di Indonesia, sudah ada suatu komunitas yang mengembangkan permainan ini. Komunitas ini umumnya bersifat umum dan bebas, artinya siapapun bisa mengikuti komunitas ini. Komunitas ini juga mengajarkan kita beberapa trik bagi yang belum mahir, dan biasanya tiap beberapa kali sekali akan diadakan lomba adu trik, baik trik dari Finger BMX dan Finger Skate.

  
Ini adalah beberapa bagian kecil dari arena Finger BMX dan Finger Skate. Ada yang berbentuk seperti huruf U dan ada yang berbentuk trap-trapan. Semuanya ini buatan sendiri dan bahan-bahannya juga mudah didapat, seperti kayu, dll. Sekian dari saya, semoga bermanfaat bagi kalian semua penikmat Blogspot.
