One fine day in Solo the Spirit of Java by: Dian
It started with a simple offer by Muthia, “Would you come to our welcoming party for new students of English Department this Saturday?”. Unfortunately, Mrs. Fischer could not make it. Since she was a guest lecturer in our major, she had another agenda already. Then, she asked us instead, “Why don’t you guys take me around the town next Saturday?”. Without thinking twice, Muthia, Ayu, Alvina, and I agreed. Yay! We are going to explore Solo! D-day We actually had planned some special destinations to go to on that day such as Pasar Gede, Keraton Surakarta, Selat Mbak Lies, and Kauman Batik Village. So, we decided to gather before 9 a.m. in UNS Inn where she stayed during her business in Indonesia. Mrs. Helga Fischer came and was ready with her scarf and summer hat. With a smile curved on her face, she greeted each of us with a warm hug. 1st destination : Pasar Gede
