Rafting in Citarik

Monday, 7 March 2011
Epicentrum Walk, Jakarta

Saturday 5 March was devoted to a rafting trip in Citarik river, West Java. The undersigned, CME, Cil, and 5 other souls shared the cost of 2 rafting boats from a company called “Arus Liar”, which means “Wild Stream”. Unfortunately, the water level in Citarik was too low (only 50 cm) to be feasible for the 2 and 3 hour options, so we had to accept the one hour rafting trip option instead.

Trip log:

04:30. Yes, that is damn early, but we managed to get up at this hour still.
05:48. We left Kuningan Plaza, driving two cars.
09:52. Arrived at Citarik.
10:30. Rafting trip started.
11:30. Rafting trip ended.
12:30. Lunch.
13:00. Driving back to Jakarta.
18:30. Arrived at the Cibubur residence, where we stayed for the night (the undersigned, CME, and Cil.)

The price tag was Rp 220k per head, which is for the two hour trip, so I guess we will get a refund on the balance.

Driving to Citarik.

Calvin, Subi, the boatman, and I forgot the name of the two others.
