Strange, and haunted.That said, reportedly, in the cave-shaped fracture-headed creature that dwells like a fish head. "Could this have anything to do with the offerings winnowing?? I thought, like shit. At that moment, I felt very uncertain direction. Understandably, the new sixth day in orbit Karang Bolong search this peculiarity I found. "Ah, just my imagination, I muttered, comforting themselves.Without wasting much time, I threw all doubt. For us, if you keep thinking will not lead to the myth. So, with Heda, Hendra, and Fadli, I designed a search equipment.Deftly, our leaders, Fadli start rigging (vertical caving equipment installed). While a supervisor, my job is quite oversees stride.Although quite long to make it, my partner was pretty confident. The proof, only with a piece of slings (rope) which is 1 inch diameter, he dared to stick hanging on the cliff.Not in vain sweat profusely. Now, in a few holes in the roof of translucent stone cave, he managed to make the anchor (mooring rope).For some reason, after making fastening, her body suddenly blingsatan. Fadli whole body itches. Hendra, who had been under to help Fadli purposes, was so severe. His body continued to rebel, scratching wildly.Apparently, the incident was our bad luck that day. For a moment, both of them were given treatment potluck, so that itching is not prolonged.Fadli was thought better to remain a team leader began to enter the cave. Behind him, I, Heda, and Hendra following tutun one by one.Arriving at the bottom of the cave, I found a lot of boulder-boulder (the ruins of the cave roof). With skulk, we explored the whole cave passage debris that blocked ratusa million-year-old's.Indeed, a good plan though designed, the determining step that the Lord. One hour the four of us roam to and fro. However, hall Kendalisada clogged. Kuldesak!No other way. Tracking and mapping carried Hendra and Heda was discontinued. And as healers disappointed, that afternoon we went to the base camp in the village Tlogosari. There, the plan re-designed, namely to the Cave Sempor in the afternoon as well.Arrangement caver (searchers) were overhauled. And, to dispel the impression of gender, the three members of the expedition participants Caving daughter Mapala UI in Kars region Karang Bolong, Gombong-Kebumen, Central Java, was given the opportunity to browse through and mapping.So, after eating lunch hungrily team edged Sempor Cave. Without much difficulty, slowly, Visna, Heda, and Anne into the darkness.His name is virgin cave, difficult to estimate the shape and likeness of cave passage. Tal No doubt, these three "heroine? eskpedisi was stuck mud as high as 50 to 80 centimeters. As a result, skulking along the mud that they continue to be cursed.Really, not a job lightly face muddy terrain. Moreover, in a state of total darkness are like that. Never mind the step, lift the leg was hard not playing.Because of the difficulty, searching tempo so slow. Without realizing it, all three of our colleagues was "stuck? in the mud for about four hours.Taste, physical condition began to collapse. Thus, although there is still a lot of hallway, exploration was halted. In case of stomach rumbling, and a full body mud, forced three caver was leaving the hall. Fortunately, supplies soft drinks and snacks ready at hand we are looking forward anxiously outside the cave. "Hungry, huh?? I joked, see them eat so greedily.***DISAPPOINTMENT on the sixth day it is not comparable to what we get, when it first arrived in the village. For us, in addition to the charm and mystery of the aisle, the landscape surrounding the village was made we were gobsmacked.When I got there, the team was greeted Candirego village verdant rice fields, our base camp. For a moment, the breeze blowing from the direction of the towering hills on either side of the village threw fatigue, after traveling 12 hours from Jakarta. Thundering waves south coast, also makes us want to start as soon as possible expedition activities in the village.Perhaps, it's a stretch of karst Karang Bolong endless to explore. Countless many regions of the distribution of caves in that. And a week-long expedition in the village Candirego, we successfully completed the mapping of the 7 pieces of the cave.On the first day alone we've welcomed by the beauty of the chamber (a large room in the cave) Cave Liyah. Large room was filled with stalactites and stalagmites. Once the carbide lamp lit, suddenly, the place is very spacious it was turned into a space "storefront crystal? nan awesome. All objects berpijaran cave so light reaches it.The next day, and bright morning greeted us explore caves Banyu. Apparently, due to a myth in society, the sacred cave. Parents there say, it is said, Banyu Cave was inhabited by a large snake and a white alligator.Misgivings so dominate our time at the mouth of the cave, indeed. And, as struck by something that came out of the blue, Heda surprised. "Crazy, dingiiin,? our leader cried, screamed.Apparently, water flowing underground river cave Banyu was very cold. Strange, all through the cave, I found it had never been like this. In situ, as soaking our feet in the river water in the high mountains.Increasingly surging up to hundreds of meters deep into the cave, found none stealth myth. That is, precisely the charm of his creations are made relentless tongue clucking, amazed. Therefore, instead of hiding in the dark stalactites, but also straw (shoot stalactites), flowstone (limestone formations that hang on the walls of the cave), and the various gourdijn (berbentung ornaments such as curtains). Size, ranging from the size of an adult hand, the statue of the adults were standing. As a result, almost at every turn the hall, we always wondered what a treat that will be found later.***ON the sixth day, search Cave Kandangan be fairly strenuous activities. Cave mouth distance of about 2 kilometers from the base camp, up and down hills. We have covered it with the back bergandul backpack weighing 3 pounds.Heavy loads and the blazing sun as our bodies allied whack. That's why, at the mouth of the cave settiba rihat team had a moment. To save time, some members of the break, some observations in the hallway entrance to the cave.Rihat satisfied that it is tight, peelusuran started. When only a few meters into it, Hendra, our leader, screaming for oxygen. Apparently, the air in the well-shaped hallway was very thin. Too dangerous without the help of these tools edging. Moreover, aisle just as high as one meter, and its width is only fitting for a body. I could suddenly stop breathing.The next day we break total. That day, all members of the expedition is really mempergun time to socialize with the locals. "Yes, when else could close small communities, especially for the kind of city we,? I said, to myself.There is a unique wisdom of socialization, when the team Ciparuk explore caves the next day. Many residents gathered at the mouth of the cave. They are so enthusiastic "watch? exploration team. While watching the activity, there are people who serve snacks for us. In fact, one of them was invited to stay at his house.With humility, except food, we dismissed all bids. Because an agreement, till the expedition uai later, we still continue the activities using the flying camp (tents).After Cave Ciparuk, we perform a search in caves Tritis. Of all the caves are entered, the search in the final round of the expedition activities that admiration that we will increasingly be the charm cave-so. Because the ornaments dominance no longer revolves around the stalactites, stalagmites or other calcite formations in the cave wall.After struggling to enter it, rimestonepool (an bertangga) giant clear water flowed make us shocked remedy for some time. Of course, especially around rimestonepool that there are stalactites and flowstone. No wonder if in turn all members of the team enjoyed by directing light toward the cave objects. Looks, three shimmering, into a mesmerizing blend of natural nan. Amazing!But unfortunately, I can not linger to enjoy the beauty of it. watch around my wrist already addressed the number 5. Then, that afternoon, the search should be terminated.Dusk light was failing. As he walked home, the beauty of the cave into the particulars Tritis interesting conversation. And suddenly, a series of activities in the bowels of the earth Karang Bolong it back imprinted on my mind. "I do not know, when I can come back again to enjoy it?? I thought, hoping in question.Thank you for reading this article I hope there is a science that can be taken from the article.

SEDEKAH LAUT CILACAP

Cilacap city is a city with beautiful beaches tour also holds many cultural uniqueness and beauty. One of the cultures that are maintained by the public dole culture Cilacap is the usual sea or commemorated annually exactly one suro.2 October 2009, where for the first time I followed and watched the sea alms procession. How awe to see the beach filled with visitors from all regions.According to sources that I can turn this tradition began in the reign of Cilacap regent 3rd Duke Tjakrawerdaya III.Turtle bay beach is the place of departure and the stump Jolen Jolen - Jolen others floated around the island of Nusa Kambangan Majheti, Jolen sesedekahan tunggung is composed of a buffalo head, the head of cow, goat's head, the result - agricultural products, jarit, flowers and other sesedekahan.On the night before the procession procession - march began, the district and every village will hold a ritual and then in the morning all the people gathered at the pavilion will Cilacap area.According to the Cilacap, sea alms ritual is an expression of gratitude to God for the catch of fish by the Cilacap which is basically their main livelihood is fishing. At sea alms procession also involve the guards and ladies - ladies complete with Javanese traditional clothes. Additionally procession also celebrated with art displayed by the group - a group of fishermen like calung, sisiangan, ebeg and others - others.When finished wine - procession will then floated ketengah sesedekahan sea. Usually people will follow by boat - fishing boat. When it was my astonishment at the sight of the greater community of thousands of very great enthusiasm to participate and witness this tradition. Arriving on the high seas, and stump Jolen Jolen - Jolen others will be discarded ketengah sea. Then I witnessed hundreds - hundreds of people jumped from the ship into the sea. Cann which really makes me wonder. It was from a source that I can, take sesedekahan sksn society that has discarded and the water around stumps and Jolen Jolen - Jolen others discarded. Society believes that water will bring good luck.Of little process - the process that I know of is seen in terms of culture and tradition is very unique and beautiful. A culture of many budayaIndonesiayang able to attract hundreds - hundreds of people from everywhere to feel awe, which needs to be preserved for the nation's cultural wealth. Culture will remain a hallmark of the region - the area menjawa.From this we can also see examples of the many examples of how our society has a tradition and consistency in maintaining a sense of mutual cooperation, togetherness and great tolerance.However, when viewed from the side of the religious tradition has certainly conflict with the rules - the rules of the Islamic religion. Because there is a procession in the ritual - a ritual which in my opinion is the ancestral gods or ancestors who are considered mystical. At the height of the show was the disposal of the public say that Jolen was sesedekahan but rather is sesajenan my opinion, it is because mubadzir not expressing gratitude but throw away and wasted - wasted sustenance from Allah who has given.Would it not be better if the results - the results are not dumped in the middle of the ocean but was given to the society to be more beneficial, and only then hold events - public art events of Cilacap.But it seems as a civilized society we should be proud of the variety of cultures that still retained pleh society. After all, at the cultural reality also provides many positive sides in Cilacap area. Turtle bay beach will be crowded by immigrants or travelers from all regions. Boats - fishing boats will also be more crowded rented. And there is also akn look how our society is true - true national unity. Then no longer terpungkiri aka tone recognition arts culture of the community that is so beautiful to be displayed to the public Cilacap other areas.KebudayaanIndonesiaakan increasingly rich and beautiful if we all were able consistently to maintain and preserve the rich culture and customs
