go to bromo.
Find Bromo Sunrise Tour.
During my faculty conference there, it is the best activity i had there.
I want & will go there again soon biggrin.gif

you'll go there by bus in midnight. few hours journey.
Then change to a van due to smaller & more dangerous roads.
Then change again to a jeep. kinda like a scrambler jeep.
Reach the top in time for sunrise.
They drive like mad. Makes u fear for your life looking at the steep cliffs inches away from the u sweat.gif

The air is a bit cold there.
So if u can't stand it, rent a thick sweater there. Few bucks only.

After sunrise, go down with the same jeep to a place to ride horses.
A lot of horses. like 400 there all owned by the native there.
They'll take u for a ride to the top of a volcano.

In short, the experience is quite interesting.
We don't have that kind of stuff i Malaysia.
