The Journey

As I have said in my previous post, of Jobs and Journey, me and my team, consisting of me, Denny Widyan, Vivaldi Wattimena and Muhammad Yasir Zain. Considering the destinations we split it into three main routes, one is the south central java route, consisting of Magelang, Temanggung, Wonosobo, Banjarnegara, Purbalingga, Purwokerto, Cilacap, Kebumen and Purworejo.

Second is the central to west central java, Klaten, Boyolali, Salatiga, Ungaran, Semarang, Kendal, Pekalongan, Pemalang, Tegal, and Brebes while the third route, the east central java route, is the Surakarta, Sragen, Karanganyar, Sukoharjo, Wonogiri, Purwodadi Grobogan, Blora, Pati, Jepara, and Kudus route.

On January 10th we started our journey on a two on two scheme, Me with Denny and Vivaldi with Yasir. My team goes to the south central java route, and Valdi’s team goes to the north-then-west route.

My route has great views, view of mountains, but since we have a tight schedule, only a few pictures are taken. We ride on a blazing speed on the road and at work, within a day, we finished 6 cities from Magelang, Temanggung, Wonosobo, Banjarnegara, Purbalingga, to Purwokerto.
We stayed on Hotel Wisata Niaga in Purwokerto for the night and start our journey again on the next morning to Cilacap, Kebumen and Purworejo. In short we’ve done our part in two days. There’s an interesting story here, I’ll write about it in another post.

Vivaldi’s team made it to Semarang on the first day, 5 cities within a day, they stayed in Semarang and continued their journey the next day to Kendal, Pekalongan and Pemalang. It turns out that due to traffic and road condition, they have to stay in Tegal before the job there is done. The following day they finished their journey there and return to Jogjakarta.

Next! Due to some situations and conditions, we started our journey on Monday, January 15th. This time my team mate is Vivaldi, coz well in short Denny and Yasir can not join us. The third route was split into two routes, the south and north part, I was to go to the south part coz I have to be in Jogja by January 17th, Wednesday, since my parents were scheduled to return from their Hajj pilgrimage.

So back to the journey, we went to Solo (Surakarta) then Sragen, Karanganyar, Sukoharjo and then Wonogiri. We finished it by two o’clock in the afternoon; we started our journey from 7 am in the morning. So in short, we’ve gone through 5 cities in just 7 hours, including the work itself.

Now, 5 more cities to go, Purwodadi Grobogan, Blora, Pati, Jepara, and Kudus, this route will be taken care of by Vivaldi and Yasir starting from today, Tuesday, January 16th.
We will be hearing from them later.
