The Pond and Black Swan Statue

Located in parking area of Taman Bunga Nusantara (Nusantara Flower Park) Cipanas, West Java, Indonesia, this pond and black swan statue seem to welcome you with their beauties.

Seeing and listening to the falling water is so refreshing and relaxing.

Inside the park, you can find several other ponds and fountains. I’ll share it later, one by one.

Our Favorite Place to Hang Out

Do you like to drink your coffee or any other beverage in a cozy place that also gives you a great view? Well, this café has become our favorite. I love their cappuccino…hmmm…it feels so great every time you drink it! Their beverages aren’t too sweet, it fits with our taste. The famous Starbuck is too expensive for us; we prefer this café, Café XXI. The prices are more affordable.

Located in Bogor Trade Mall (Bogor, West Java, Indonesia), this café is a terrace of BTM XXI cinema. If the weather is bright, you can see Salak Mountain here.

Last Friday we ordered two cappuccinos and toasted bread as we don’t feel hungry. All are yummy… What a wonderful place to spend your afternoon or wait your movie showing time!

The Mascot of Nusantara Flower Park

If you visit Taman Bunga Nusantara (Nusantara Flower Park) in Cipanas (West Java, Indonesia) you will be welcomed by this big black swan statue in parking area. Black swan (Cygnus attratus) is the mascot of this flower park.

I and my husband visited Nusantara Flower Park yesterday, Saturday morning. You can find black swan in the Lake Swan area. It’s a pity that he/she isn’t in the mood to swim that morning.

Australia is the origin of black swan. They have strong stamina, can easily adapt with the environment and multiply, though they don’t live in their original habitat. An elegant creature!

Couple's Corner: Good Habits that Will Never Change

Last week I shared about our old bad habits; this week is about our good habits that we are proud to have and that’s why we don’t want to change it.

I don’t know if it can be included good habits, but I always do it every day/frequently:

I always welcome my hubby with a smiling face every time he arrived home, every night. I won’t bother him with my nagging words.

Every time he’s leaving home for work, I always kiss his hand and accompany him until he enters the car. We wave our hands and I always say, “Drive safely”. Then I pray to God for his safety.Two good habits of my hubby that I love:
He always says “I love you” to me several times, every day.
He always hugs and kisses me before going to sleep and leaving home for work.
He has new good habits that I want him to continue and keep:
He prefers coffee with less sugar now.
He still can’t stop smoking but he has decreased the cigarette consumption.

Well, it’s our share this time. How about you? What are your good habits?
