To the nice cool climate in Kaliurang

Today we left Yogyakarta and made our way to Kaliurang in preparation of climbing Mt. Merapi Volcano tomorrow, which is currently the most active Volcano in the world. So to get there we had to catch a local bus to the main bus station and then change buses. However, once we were on the bus, it emptied out, the driver and conductor said they would take us all the way there for a cheaper price so we wouldn’t have to change! Perfect and extremely nice of them!

However, I think it was an excuse for them to have a drive and thus enjoy some lunch and time off! When we arrived in Kaliurang they unfortunately as well as 3 other locals gave us incorrect directions for Vogels, which is the guesthouse we were staying in. So we wandered around and around for ages before working out that it was right where the bus had dropped us off! As soon as we checked in, we instantly fell in love with the place and the owner Christian and enjoyed a chilled evening in the restaurant.
