Indonesias Gunung Bromo

Two days have passed and we decided to go into the 2 main islands of indonesia since the major ones are sumatra and java. we flew to java to surabaya and from there we went to propolingo which turned out to be our base for the hike to Gunung Bromo. This is a 2392m high moiuntine which gave us one hell of a lifetime experience. we went up with the bus through serpentines, crossing the most beautiful landscape filled with rice fields, banana trees and all the possible flowers one can imagine. At our arrival, we climbed down to the plateau which was the field for the active volanco crater and Hindu Temple. Imagine nothing but that, and that is where we went. Bromo Volanco turned out to be quite a work out since we first had to reach the plateau and then go towards the crater bottom and which was followed by an approximate 300 stairs up to the sulphate smoking crater. the view was spectacular and when overlooking the pure nature, one could only hold their breath.
