Amazing Place, Mendenhall Ice Caves!

What do you think about the picture above?
Its really cool right? the scenery and the temperature are really "cool"

Now, im going to tell you about one of amazing places in the world, called Mendenhall Ice Caves that located in Juneau, Alaska.
In few places can you experience every stage of the water cycle at once. But there's magic in the Mendenhall Ice Caves, where water runs over rocks under blue ceilings inside a partially hollow glacier.
The Mendenhall Glacier is a 12-mile-long glacier in the Mendenhall Valley, located only 12 miles from downtown Juneau in Southeast Alaska. Federally protected as part of the Mendenhall Galcier Recreation Area, a unit of the Tongass National Forest, the glacier originally had two names, Sitaantaagu ("Glacier Behind the Town") and Aak'wtaaksit ("Glacier Behind the Little Lake").
The Ice Caves are inside the glacier, accessible only to those willing to kayak to, and then ice climb over the glacier. However, the glacier is retreating increasingly fast as global warming heats the oceans and temperatures rise.
Monitored since 1942 by the Juneau Icefield Rsearch Program, the Mendenhall Glacier has receded almost 2 miles since 1958, while previously it had receded only 0.5 miles since 1500. The caves are in part a function of this increased glacial melting.
Images of the caves circulate the internet with such captions as "otherworldly" and "surreal," but "melting" and "fleeting" could be used as well, as this glacier creates incredible new landscapes while we watch it melt away.

Mendenhall Glacier ice cave that had become a popular but increasingly dangerous attraction has collapsed, according to the U.S. Forest Service.

US Forest Service officials announced Friday, July 18, 2014, that the roof/ceiling of a popular Mendenhall Glacier ice cave collapsed near the entry.

Pictures showing the ice cave's spectacular blue color has made it a desirable, albeit difficult, spot to visit.

But overall, one word from me, "amazing!" i hope this cave will last till forever (lol) 

See you!

Unforgettable Moment

Hello guys!!
Almost every year on holiday, me and my family come to Pameungpeuk, West Java for silaturahmi or visiting family, friends, etc. On 21th of August 2012, as a routine, we went to Pameungpeuk by car for 5 hours. Its a tiring journey, we passes through mountain, up and down, turn right and left frequently. Sometimes on the way i got a headache, sleep is the best way to avoid headache during the trip. But, if you look outside the window, theres many amazing scenery! its so fresh and green, the air is really fresh too!

Pameungpeuk have 2 beach, there are Santolo and Sayangheulang. In Santolo we can swim because the coast is safe and shallow, surrounded by soft sand. But im going to tell you about my vacation in Sayangheulang beach. Sayangheulang beach surrounded by coral and rock.You can't swim there because its too dangerous, but you can find many pretty-shells theres. The waves is soooooooooooo beautiful! im in love with the waves, why? because its really clean and the colour is really really magnificent! guess what? tosca! how cool is that?

Near Sayangheulang beach, theres seafood' restaurant too. So, we can eat after we enjoyed the scenery of the beach. I'll never forget my moment there, too good to be forgotten. Thankyou all, i hope you can visit Sayangheulang beach too. You wont regret it, i promise. Ciao~
