Romantic Visit

It's been a week since we visited my father's grave. For me, it was a beautiful and romantic visit. The day was sunny with the clear blue sky and soft white clouds dancing in the sky.

Since morning Mama rambled around the garden picking up the flowers. She herself prepared the flowers bouquet for my father. Isn't it romantic? I was really touched I felt like my heart would burst with love and excitement.


Maybe it looked like we didn't go to a grave. We were 'cheerful' that day. Mama wore her soft yellow dress while my sister and I chose our white dress with little flowers ornaments. We brought two flowers bouquets for my father and his mother, and we also brought along a lot of stuffs like umbrella, some snacks and fruits, as if we would go on a picnic. Ya.. it was short of a picnic I think. =)

My father's grave is located in a beautiful and quiet small village about an hour outside my city. It is place where he was born and grew up. The cemetery is the beautiful one with a lot of trees. His grave is up the hill with the view right to the green rice field and little peek to the Mahakam river. Cool Dad! You've got the best spot!

Before we left, we planted Jasmine on his grave. So, Jasmine tree and flowers bouquet on grave, isn't it romantic?


We don't say good bye.
We will be together again one day in the garden of delight.
