Guess where this is? This is in Indonesia. More specifically in Puncak, Indonesia which is about 2 hour drive southward from Jakarta. Puncak area is famous for Taman Safari. We stayed at a privately own house during a long weekend a couple of weeks ago. It was lovely.
We had to take our own food and it was a lot of preparation before the trip, but once we got there, all the hard work paid off. I loved it. I realized that this type of trip suits our stage of life right now because our 3rd child is still very young. We can drive there and we just stay in the lodge and play.
One afternoon it got very misty. It was fabulous. We were in Indonesia and we did not sweat outside. It was cool and amazing. I got excited like a child to see thick fog surrounding the hills, trees and everywhere!
My husband is pretty creative when it comes to playing with little ones. He talked like a character in Harry Potter with the fake British accent and teased the kids saying funny stuff to them and they absolutely loved playing with him! The laughs were priceless. Creativity is all you need to entertain yourself.
I have more photos of us during our little vacation/staycation in Puncak. I plan on sharing them with you little by little.
This is an awesome vacation! I love the mystical aura of the thick fog. It must have been great inspiration for imagination.
Hi! Yes, it was a great inspiration for a lot of things!!
These are absolutely magical! I love seeing glimpses into your life! xo
Thanks, Mere! It felt very magical and I loved it!
oops 😉 what I was saying is I can’t believe this is Indonesia! and your husband sounds so funny, like my mr — he would be sure to make up entertaining stories like that for our kiddos 🙂
I know. I couldn’t believe it either! He’s a funny dude! I wish I could make kids laugh like he does.
which camera did You use and can you tell me the setting for this photos. I love all the pictures in this blog.
Thanks! Let me get back to you on the setting. I use Canon EOS Rebel T3 which is one of the cheapest you can get. 🙂
For these photos, I used the following.
LENS: 50 mm
F POINT NUMBER (aperture): 2.0
EXPOSURE TIME (shutter speed): 1/200
I can’t find the ISO figure. Sorry. I think it was probably somewhere between 400 and 800.
I hope this is helpful!
Awesome pics Kaho!!! I just came back from there an hour ago! We got tons of rain and no fog hahaha. We had a great time anyway!!!
It rained a lot here in Jakarta, too! Glad you had a great time!
Thanks for sharing the camera settings and i will use it in this kind of weather. I Love hill stations for vacation cos i grow up completely near the seaside about 600 metres from the shore in South of india . Chennai city.After 2004 tsunami i have hydrophobia freaking scared of water and sea.
The place where i lived had this weather pattern hot, hotter, hottest. in summer the temp goes to 46 degree celsius. During Nov and dec it used be 27-30. so i love the cool weather. and Green lush trees and bright beautiful flowers. I cant live in cold countries i will freeze to death.
Sure! Anytime! If you find photos that you are interested in knowing the setting of the camera, do ask me again! I appreciate questions like that.
I have never lived in a city where it gets colder than Washington, D.C., but I enjoy the winter there. I can handle the winter there especially the autumn in D.C. is breathtaking. However, I admit that by March, I definitely get ready for the warmer climate. I actually love living in a hot climate. There are many perks for that. 🙂
