Paginya Dayat dan Nefran brangkat ke Alor Kecil untuk nyebrang ke P. Kepa. Secara gue ikut juga brangkat siang harinya bareng Pak Eli [Kontributor Trans-TV] dengan tujuan Kep Island. Secara kebetulan dia emang mo membuat liputan tentang keindahan Pulau Kepa dan isinya.

Setibanya di Pulau Kepa, gue ber-3 [Pak Eli, Romeo & Gue] langsung ke Le Petite Kepa; sebuah resort yang dikelola oleh sepasang orang Perancis yang sudah tinggal 6 tahun bersama putrinya di pulau ini.

Rupanya semua cottage yang dibuat seperti bangunan tradisionil ini telah penuh diisi oleh para turis [Poland, British, France & American] rupanya mereka sudah berhari-hari disini untuk diving. Ada turis yang bahkan gak pernah ke Bali, apalagi ke Jakarta.

Manado is the capital of the North Sulawesi province of Indonesia. Manado is located at the Bay of Manado, and is surrounded by a mountainous area. The city has about 417,548 inhabitants. The municipality of Manado is divided into nine districts: Malalayang, Sario, Wanea, Wenang, Tikala, Mapanget, Singkil, Tuminting and Mapanget.

History
The Dutch East India Company built a fortress in Manado in 1658. As with regions in eastern Indonesia, Manado has undergone christianization by Dutch missionaries, including Riedel and Schwarz. The Javanese prince Diponegoro was exiled to Manado by the Dutch government in 1830. The English biologist Alfred Wallace visited Manado in 1859, and praised the town for its beauty. The city was heavily damaged by Allied bombing during World War II. In 1958, the headquarters of the rebel movement Permesta were moved to Manado. When Permesta confronted the central government with demands for political, economic and regional reform, Jakarta responded in Manado by bombing the city in February 1958, and then invading in June 1958.

Tourism and Places of interest
Sam Ratulangi International Airport
As the largest city in the region, Manado is a key tourist transit point for visitors. Sam Ratulangi International Airport of Manado is one of the main entry ports to Indonesia. In 2005, no less than 15,000 international passengers entered Indonesia via Sam Ratulangi International Airport. Ecotourism is the biggest attraction in Manado. Scuba diving and snorkelling on the nearby island of Bunaken are popular attractions. Ban Hin Kiong Temple is another tourism spot in the city, especially during the chinese new year celebration. Souvenirs shops are located on B.W. Lapian street. Other places of interest are nearby Lake Tondano, Lokon Volcano, Klabat Volcano and Mahawu Volcano.

Shopping malls
It is easy to find places to shop around Manado, since many of the shopping malls are located on Piere Tendean Boulevard. There are four recent shopping malls there, namely Mega Mall, Manado Town Square, Boulevard Mall and IT Center. Traffic jam usually occurs at Piere Tendean Boulevard because of the existence of the shopping malls.

The hilltop town of Tomohon, known locally as the "City of Flowers", sits in a saddle between two volcanoes, Lokon and Mahawu. The climate is delightfully temperate. Fruits and a wide range of flowers - hibiscus, angel trumpets, bougainvillaea, lilies, gladiolas, carnations and irises - are grown commercially to supply markets in Manado. The town's main road is lined with flower stalls, every yard seems to overflow with lush foliage, and the roadsides are planted with deep red croton plants. Well-proportioned ponies pull beautifully decorated horsecarts, known as bendi, often leaving little room for motorised traffic.
Tomohon is famed as an educational centre, and there is a large auditorium atop Bukit Inspirasi, a hill that gives a striking view of the town with Mt. Lokon in the background.

Lake Tondano, lake in north central Indonesia, on the northernmost tip of the island of Sulawesi (Celebes), on the Minahasa Peninsula. The lake is 14 km (9 mi) long and nearly 6 km (4 mi) wide. It rests on a plateau 600 m (2,000 ft) above sea level in a valley between the Lambean Mountains and paddy fields. The mountains, many of them volcanic, were formed by the pressures between the two shelves of the Asian and Australian continents. Later, some of the valleys between the mountains filled with water. Around Lake Tondano most of the rock is sedimentary and dates from the Tertiary Period (from 65 million to 1.6 million years ago). The Manado River flows from the lake north to the Celebes Sea, at the city of Manado, a short distance away.

During the Dutch colonial period (which ended in 1949), the region was a coffee-growing area. During World War II (1939-1945), the Japanese occupied the area and dug extensive caves near the lake where they stored food and water and took shelter during air raids. Today, the caves are a tourist attraction. In addition to coffee, cloves and coconuts are grown near the lake. Tondano, a nearby town, has a cool, refreshing climate and is an important population center for the area

Woloan
Every village has it's own speciality.Woloan is known for its traditional wooden houses. The carpenters of Woloan build the wooden houses on poles, and are being showed along the main road as you enter the village. Potential buyers have almost a village of houses to choose from. Ones choosen the house is taken a part and loaded on trucks to be transported, to your place where it will be offloaded and rebuild.And so it is possible to send houses all over the world

Kawangkoan
The large village in the Minahasa highlands of North Sulawesi consisting of 1,206 households engaged mainly as farmers and coconut plantation laborers. As with the majority of public schools in Indonesia, Kawangkoan's elementary school is severely dilapidated and no funding is available for renovations. The village government will create at least 75 acres of permanent no-take rainforest in exchange for Seacology funding the rehabilitation of their elementary school.

BITUNG
The city of Bitung located on the northern coast of Sulawesi, approximately 47 km from Manado.

It covers a total area of 30,400 Ha. comprice of 3 districts and 44 villages with a total population of 103,183 people (1992). Bitung is an important port in Eastern Indonesia and also a tourist gateway to Indonesia. The port is well equipped with a wharf capable for ocean liner. The uniqueness of this Municipality is the wildlife sanctuary at nearby area and Lembeh island that stands like a natural shield for for protecting it from winds and waves. It is believed that the name"Bitung" was taken from the name of a kind of shady trees grown on the coastal areas where people could take shelter from sun, rain and wind.

"Trust me... It's paradise! This is where the hungry come to feed.
For mine is a generation that circles the globe in search of something we haven't tried before.

So never refuse an invitation, never resist the unfamiliar,
never fail to be polite, and never outstay your welcome.

Just keep your mind open and suck in the experience.
And if it hurts, you know what... It's probably worth it.

You hope and you dream,
but you never believe that something is going to happen to you,
not like it does in the movies.

And when it actually does, you expect it to feel different, more blissful, more real.
I was waiting for it to hit me...

I still believe in paradise,
but now at least I know it's not some place that you look for.
Because it's not where you go, it's how you feel for a moment in your life.
If you find that moment, it lasts forever!"
