I visited a quite remote village called Allang on my trip to Ambon back then. The two spots I was dying to see were Tanjung Allang and Pasir Putih Beach. My Ambon-raised cousins volunteered to take me there and I dragged all of my other cousins (the city boys and girls) to come along.
The trip was............
You know, when they said "no pain no gain", I believe they were talking about going to Allang. Hahaha.. it was hard to get there, and to have the best view (and possible jumping spot), we have to cut through a forest of some kind.
The bright part of the so-called-forest. Almost felt like doing a Survivor shot of some kind haha..
But, after stumbling here and there, we're finally there and the view was amazing, it was worth it.
There's no need to edit this photo, seriously.
Despite its clear and calm appearance, my cousins told me that Tanjung Allang is actually one of the most dangerous areas for ship and boats alike and people need to be really really careful when crossing this beautiful place.
I often find myself wondering, that striking blue colors on the waters, is it the reflection of the sky above? Or is it the sky that mirrors the ocean?
That rocks I'm standing on, they are really really sharp. But to compensate that a little bit, you've got these shiny yellow flowers for your eyes. The contrast they brought with the blue ocean and the sky behind was perfect.
On sunny day like this, those yellow colors stand out like no other
yellow yellow on the ground, I don't wanna look the other way around~
All was well, but I have to remind you though, that in Allang it felt like you have at least two or three suns above your head. It wasn't just sunny -- it was real hot. Like literally you will get an instant sunburn just by standing there without long sleeves / hat / sunblock cream / whatever protection means you can get. So prepare well. And avoid skin cancer.
Lasano-Telussa-Sohilait Dynasty. Consisted of natural adventurers.
Coming into conclusion that staying out in the open in Tanjung Allang any longer will definitely give us premature sunburn even before we arrived at the beach, we decided to leave. The road to the beach was a small road and required us to climb several many stone staircases.
Is that... rock on both side of the road? They are huge.
Staircases. And more staircases. Mm. Love 'em.
When you reach the top of the stairs you could see the green of the forest and the ocean afar. It was quite stunning, although I remembered everyone was sort of short of breath and the hot weather did not help at all. But all in all, I was really happy. Going to this place fulfill my hunger for adventure, my love of running, climbing -- physical activities that helps me feel alive. Listening to my own fast heartbeat, feeling the blood rush and sweat and aching muscles, all to be rewarded with beautiful view after we completed the "trial".
They should build some sort of flying fox unit in here. Imagine flying from this forest straight to the beach below. I'd climb those stairs all over again to fly more and more.
When we finally reached the Pasir Putih beach (by taking motorbike taxi a.k.a "ojek") everyone was so excited and kind of forgetting all the climbs and tiring road we walked earlier. The first thing I noticed on this beach is that the kind local people have made a tree swing overlooking the beach in front.
It is not the best tree swing in the world, but it was enough.
the happy team
And then the beach itself? I don't have any complaint, nope, not a single one. One thing for sure, Ambon is truly blessed with its magnificent beaches. The water, the sand, the reefs, everything that made up a good beach is here. The atmosphere, the natural surroundings, the sounds around you -- everything. Sure, they haven't build the best infrastructure and it can be quite a struggle to reach these places without a local guiding you, but if you're an explorer and doesn't mind to get lost a few times, you will love it here.
My cousin's been teaching me a thing or two about photography and she volunteered as a model. How did I do? :D
The most beautiful spot on Pasir Putih Beach!
With the burning sun, those waters feel like a whole new level of 'freshness'
My baby cousin (who's pictured in red above) told us that she wanted to see the sunset landscape here on the beach. Her wish, unfortunately, has to be put on hold, because look:
The sun was high, and guess what, it was 05.00 pm. So my older cousins reminded us that we still have a long way to go, back to the city of Ambon and there was no way we could wait till the sunset is set. With that in mind, we set off and left the beauty of Pasir Putih Beach.
I am so glad I came here.
Of all my family and relative's houses, I love my grandparents' one the most. It is a 2 stories house in a village in Ambon with spacious garden, which my grandma filled with beautiful flowers and her collection of ferns. As far as I can remember, the garden was always colorful, smelled great and there were no mosquitos around because gran planted some plants that she said was the natural repellent of mosquitos. There's a big tree by the left corner of the garden and when I was a child, there was a tire swing hanging on that tree. I spent a lot of time there, by that tire swing.
My grandfather said that my middle name was given to me because for some months the flowers around their garden weren't blooming as usual, and no one knows why. But then on the day I was born, all of the flowers suddenly bloomed in the same time. Grandpa said that he remembered the day as the day when the garden smelled the best. I still can't figure out whether my grandfather was telling the truth, or if he was just being a very convincing storyteller.
Last Christmas was a full house in my grandparents' place in Ambon. My aunties, uncles, cousins from all places were there. We laughed, danced, teased each other, chat, and had fun together and it was amazing. Everyone arrived at different times so after three days, we realized we had a problem. There wasn't enough room and bed for everyone to sleep.. my cousins and I find it pretty funny because since that everyone started to mark their place to sleep. On the couch, on the floor using mattresses, sneaking to my grandparents' room at night and sleep between them etc. Me, being a nomad, I slept at different spots every night muahahaha. I wasn't being a nomad alone. One of my cousin, 5 years younger than me turns out to be a nomad himself and we explored all the creative alternative for a sleeping spot every night. Then one day he came with this brilliant idea. On the second floor there's an open air space looked like a balcony where my grandparents always sit together for afternoon tea. He suggested we slept on that balcony and pretend we were out camping and sleep under the stars.
It was amazing.
I don't have many starry nights in Jakarta, and when I did, the stars don't really fill the whole sky, everyone kept saying that it was because of the pollution, the dirty air.
But that night in Ambon, I really slept under the stars. I lay down with my blankets and pillows and looked up and the line of stars... it was a magical view. I think the stars lulled me to sleep that night. Another nice part was waking up. I woke up to the sun rays on my face and the sky got brighter and brighter until it was pure blue and I really enjoyed the view.
I really love that house.
That, plus a beach behind the house.
I often think that we do have to travel a lot, revisiting old places and trying to go somewhere new too, just to see where you really belong. We could not choose the place where we were born but certainly we can choose to see other places too if we want it.
I still have some posts left about trip to Ambon. But... I will probably have to put in on hold since next week will be the big day of the last exam ever in the university before graduation yaaay. So this week I'll be concentrating on that and hope to be back with good news. Anyway Jude is starting a new project combining Instagram and music here. It's called Anthropoplogy: Music on your feed, I've seen her selection and most are new to me and I'm happy about it because she's broadening my range of knowledge of music. Hahaha.. I'm particularly attached to Zedd and his song "Find You" which is also will be one of the soundtrack for Divergent movie. Give it a try probably you'll be surprised.
Wish you a happy weekend!
I'm going to lost myself now reading Freud, Adler, Jung, Kelly and everyone else in between :3
This song is called "Solace on Coconut Island", written by the late Ismail Marzuki around 1940s. He was saying something about a beautiful coconut island that is called Indonesia, his homeland. I used to sing this song a lot in elementary school, but was wondering what exactly did Marzuki mean by "solace on the coconut island"? My recent trip to Ambon triggered the memory of the song almost immediately inside my head. Especially on this beach. I hear you, Mr. Marzuki. This is solace on the coconut island.
This majestic beach is called Namalatu Beach, it is located in Latuhalat, Ambon. As usual, take an angkot with "Latuhalat" written on top of it, or you can rent a car, or a motorcycle and ride from the city of Ambon to this place. Riding a motorcycle will be a much cheaper option, but obviously less comfortable compared to renting a car. Namalatu Beach is well known for the beauty of its reefs and the beach's sand that is composed of small pieces of reefs. Too bad it was raining all day when I and my cousins went there so maybe the pictures will be a little dark, but I can assure you that bad weather didn't cloud the beauty of this beach at all.
there goes the coconut trees~
When the rain stopped just a little, I stormed out of this gazebo where we sat (and weep because we could not jump right into the water) and start walking around. Part of the area that goes by the name of "Namalatu Beach" is not really a big place. They have built some gazebos here and there, so people can sit around, sipping coconut juices and enjoying the beach in front of them. I don't know if this beach was safe for everybody to swim or not, since there were reefs below the water and the reefs were pretty sharp. Some locals said that it is one of the most beautiful diving spot, though. Aside from the small gazebos on the sore, there is one big gazebo stood in the far east of the beach that happened to be particularly popular for young people.This gazebo literally built on top of a medium reef, and I can only guess that probably it is the reason why it's a popular spot. If you climbed down that reef where the gazebo stand, you will be exposed directly into the water like this:
and I'm really happy about that. One friendly reminder though: the reefs are sharp, make sure you put on your flip-flops or sandals. The water was surprisingly warm, I was kind of expecting icy cold water, but it was warm and nice.
If you're standing in the bridge connecting the gazebo and the outer line of the beach, you could clearly see the beach line decorated by the slightly bended coconut trees, which always seems to wave and wave, as if they are calling people from across the sea to come over and see what Namalatu Beach can give them.
The other nice spot here take form on a bridge. But this is a special bridge, according to the locals this was the remain of once a strong castle there. The castle was long lost to history, and I've searched everywhere but find no scientific claim over this castle, if it did exist. But then, some things did lost in history I guess. This bridge go all the way to the ocean, much like the one in Liang Beach, although it does look a lot stronger and tougher. Instead of wood, this bridge is made of firm stones, I can almost imagining it in castle form.
I was careful when walking on top of this bridge, enjoying every step I took and the sketches of the reefs below the clear transparent water. I took a deep breath, letting the rather salty air of the ocean filled my lungs, wondering if it was really a part of some old, strong and powerful castle. As I crossed the bridge, the sky was getting darker again, thick clouds carrying raindrops, it was almost raining once again. Probably it was just me, but walking slowly on that bridge gave me goosebumps. Like I was going to penetrate a big storm in front of me, because, look at the sky ahead!
The bridge ends with this rectangular shaped stone, a small space right in front of the ocean line, where the water's shades become darker and darker, indicating the deep ocean ahead.
At first, I was reluctant to take pictures because it was dark and I was a little disappointed because then I could not take good pictures to share with you; all this beautiful scenery my eyes are blessed with. But my dear cousin insisted to take some pictures anyway and I can see now why she's right! The storm-is-coming-soon weather actually gave the photographs a strong effect! Or at least that's what I think. Haha..
The most amazing thing about Namalatu Beach, especially about the bridge is this:
You walked from the beach line, the shores, very well aware of the small group of reefs below the water, you walked and walked *preferably bare footed*, and then you reached that rectangular stone and looked around and gasp!
my pose is ridicolous. just ignore it, look! beautiful reefs!
That.. was one moment of... my breath being taken away and I was just standing there, mouth wide opened and... the scenery was just amazing, the water, the reef, the wind, the sound of waver, just everything! It was beyond beautiful! I don't know if beautiful is enough to describe what I saw there.
I was definitely grateful for a chance to witness the beach with my own eyes.
"Waves oh always waves,
Coconut trees off the shore,
Whisper and whisper,
King of adventurers.
To worship the land,
So beautiful so graceful,
Oh my motherland,
Indonesia."
Oh, and I put the "Solace on Coconut Island" video here for you, in case you're wondering and want to listen to the song. This is performed by Victorian Philharmonic Orchestra, they've done covers for national anthem and other traditional songs and they are pretty good ;D enjoy!
It was said that the United Nations Development Programme once crowned a certain beach in Ambon as the most beautiful beach in Indonesia (read the news here). It was 1990, 24 years ago. This beach is famous by the name of Liang Beach. It also goes by other less famous name, the Hunimua Beach. Considering the title UNDP gave, I imagine that Liang beach now, 24 years later would be overcrowded by tourists, worse on holidays, packed with merchants here and there and would have lost all of its original beauty.
I knew when I arrived at the beach, I was so wrong. The white sand carpet still retains its color, clean and undisturbed. The turquoise water spoiling your eyes, that won't be tired of all the nature's beauty Ambon could offer to you. The clear blue sky framing the beach unto those pictures we usually see in postcards. It is breathtaking. Some hours later when I finally remember to look through those picturesque beaches could really exist.
As usual, you can take angkot here, look for the one with "Liang" written on top of it. Or you can also rent a car. I am aware that some websites referring to Trans Amboina that are supposed to start operating on 2010, serving routes to popular places. But the last time I was back in Ambon for approximately 10 days, there is no Trans Amboina in sight. I think it is no longer around, leaving us with the more traditional transportation means.
Once you get here, there is this famous spot for taking pictures at Liang Beach, a bridge to be exact, that takes you some meters away from the shores.
The famous bridge. The sensation you got when you stepped on the woods bare-foot...
From this bridge, some brave and happy souls will run and jump right into the turquoise water, and I only regret why I did not do so. This beach is so very quiet, the exact place in my imagination of where I would go when I want to be away from the buzzing noises of the city, and immerse in a whole new level of "me-time". Like this is the perfect place to sit down, reading books, play guitar if you can, listening music or something. A place where poets and authors and composers probably could find a lot of inspirations by just sitting there.
Will you look at the water! WHY didn't I just... jump?
I remember an article stated that Liang beach was crowned as the most beautiful beach in Indonesia because of the view of the undersea. So, you are supposed to be able to go snorkeling or maybe diving and see paradise down there. But then when I got there, there were two or three tourists like ourselves but no one else. No stalls, no snorkeling or diving gear rent centres, no nothing actually. It is just a sole quiet beach with an amazing view and colors but was rather lonely with no one there.
Maybe because it's always this quiet here with not so many people come around then the beach was able to retain its beauty since twenty-something years ago. But it was also kind of sad because I always think that beach was made to be enjoyed with... at least some other people?
Ambon is a place inhabited by groups of people who always enjoy each others' company, family, music, good food, jokes and pretty beaches. So I was wondering why is it, that this beach attracts just some curious tourist while she was actually displaying most graceful view one can ever ask from a beach. I personally think that in terms of the view, the landscapes and the colors of the beach, Liang beach is way more beautiful than Natsepa beach we dicussed earlier here. It has the shades of white and blue and light green (turqoise...?) and is said to be the longest white sand beach in Indonesia. But it was too quiet there, too quiet it feels like a lonely place to go. I can not deny the beauty, but I don't know either if a 40 km distance from Ambon city is the main reason why people don't come here that much. That, or maybe because Liang is not the safest beach to swim at. So unless you are up find a perfectly quiet hiding place, or unless you brought your very own snorkeling/diving gear, I'm afraid there's nothing much to do here.
But it was here, on this very silent beach, that for the first time I looked across the ocean and decided on something in my mind:
That I will go see the world, and tell stories about it.
That I realized I really love to go see different places in the world, discovering things I only see in books or TVs or probably can only imagine before. Letting my eyes see for itself, my hands touch for themselves; the sands of distant beaches, the view of the hidden islands. That traveling is an amazing way to learn about people, about other cultures and to see how people from different places live their life. To make a lot of new friends, to learn from them and to have certain motivation to go back see them again one day. One way or another, I will definitely go explore the world.
One of my biggest concern about Indonesian is the fact that many of us are not aware of how beautiful our country is. As the world's largest archipelago, this country is bound to be very, very, beautiful. It is located right in the centre of the equator line, making sure that it is warm all year long, and thus is a perfect place for so many floras and faunas. It is said that if you come to Indonesia then you can actually see almost all species of animals and plants the world has to offer. I understand that. But on the other hand, I'm also aware that not every single area in Indonesia is a tourist-friendly area, both to local tourists and to foreigners. The fact that traveling within Indonesia could be more expensive than it is to explore our neighboring countries is also one good reason why people would choose to travel aboard.
Anyway, I hope that by writing about juuuust a little piece of heaven on the far east of the country will help to provoke people, especially Indonesian to look a little closer to the land that is blessed to be ours. So in Ambon, I practically beach-hopping here and there, and found beautiful beaches that you just have to put on your next retreat/traveling/beach-ing (is that even English? xD) list! Natsepa Beach: The People's Beach According to my cousins, Natsepa is definitely one of the most famous hang out place in Ambon. And they weren't lying about it. Natsepa especially famous for its rujak (fruit salad with peanut sauce) and coconut ice.
Rujak stalls overlooking Natsepa Beach
You so HAVE TO go see this place! Try those rujak, ask for your second and third plate, drink that mouth-watering coconut juice and enjoy the perfect beach! Natsepa's rujak is really a thing. Culinary program on TVs should feature this dish. Delicious, crunchy, fresh and just... so perfect to eat while you're enjoying the beach. There are lots of rujak stalls along Natsepa Beach. Their rujak tasted almost the same, so don't worry. just take your pick, sit and eat. The stalls pretty much looked like this one. Most of them sell the same food, rujak and coconut ice (10,000 rupiah per glass). Some stalls sell other ordinary food like meatballs soup and noodles too. But they're like, side dishes. The main thing is the rujak. And it is all that matters. :D
Fruits selection for Rujak Natsepa
The fruit salad itself contains of lots and lots of tropical fruits. Pineapples, guava, starfruit, papaya, mangoes (yum I LOVE mangoes) and also some fresh cucumbers. If there is any fruits that you prefer not to be included in the rujak you could just tell the seller. Mostly the sellers are women and we call them usi according to the local laguage of Ambonese. The fruits are cleaned, cut nicely and then mixed with the special peanut sauce.
Usi's preparing Rujak Natsepa. My mouth is officially watering right now at the moment.
I think the main ingredients that make rujak Natsepa was soo sooo good is the peanut sauce! The peanuts left not thoroughly crushed so you got this crunchy effect when chewing your rujak. The peanut sauce used here is so different from the usual rujak sauce I ate in Jakarta. Definitely a must-try when visiting Ambon!
Preparing the peanut sauce
The peanut sauce is naturally spicy, as it is the best falvor to go with the fruit salad. But of course, you can always communicate with your usi, they will gladly adjust the fruit salad to your likings. All you have to do is ask. Usi at Natsepa Beach are very friendly. And they work fast too, being used to have a lot of people asking for rujak all the time. I visited Natsepa Beach two times on my 10 days stay in Ambon. Why? Because of the rujak of course!
Rujak Natsepa and all of its glory
You can have this rujak by paying 10,000 rupiah per plate. Here you can also order the special sauce, in case you would like to bring the sauce home and make your own rujak. My mom used to buy a jar of the peanut sauce (around 15.000 - 20.000 rupiah) to bring home and mix it with whatever fruit she can grab back home. Hahaha.. But really, it's very very delicious.
My face was all like, can I have that yummy juice now??
The thing about Natsepa Beach is, it actually nailed it in bringing people together. Unlike other beaches in Ambon that are mostly quite and private (we'll get to those later, don't worry), this one is the people's beach. You can find all type of beach goers here: family, group of friends, couples, someone who's traveling to the beach alone on just because she wants to enjoy the beauty of the beach while reading a completely random book (someone like me), happy grandpas and grannies, grumpy grandpas and grannies -- you name it! People actually come here to, you know, chilling out together. Back in Jakarta, when people want to relief some stress, their easiest way is to visit some shopping malls, because those malls offer a one stop service for everyone: shopping places, classy restaurants, cinemas, bookstore, almost everything. Then people literally just go out of one block of building (office, school) to another block of building (shopping malls).
Finally. THE coconut juice!
I felt the sharp jealousy struck for the local residents because they have this beautiful beach within their reach and as their main recreation form. There is only 2 or 3 shopping malls in town! And people go there when they really need to buy something. In times of need for stress relief, they run to mother nature. Anyway, this part of Natsepa Beach is also known as Suli Atas Beach. The distinctive mark would be that island on the background. The locals called it the crocodile island because it resembles a crocodile sun bathing in the sea lying on its stomach. Was I imitating the crocodile's pose? YES! Muahahahaha... except that the crocodile doesn't get to taste the delicious pinkish coconut juice I was having.
Suli Bawah Beach: A Quiet Retreat
Suli Bawah Beach is actually the extended part of Natsepa Beach. The best time to go peeking around is definitely in the morning, before the sun is high at 11.30 am. Around that time the tide is high so the view although still amazing, is not as impressive as the view you got when the tide is low. I don't know what exactly the reason why this beach is far far far quieter than Natsepa Beach. It is almost easy to understand that those two beaches are actually one beach.
To reach Suli Bawah Beach all you have to do is walk along the shores for about 5 minutes and voila! Welcome to Suli Bawah! ...that, doesn't make sense, I know. The other fun way you can try is to rent a boat and take the water route. You can rent the boat for 45 minutes by paying 35,000 rupiah.
This is the boat. According to the boatman, it could actually hold up to 7 people on board. According to my mother, that's suicide. Actually, my cousins and I, all 6 of us, and the boatman, board that very boat without my mom and my auntie's knowing. Then... after that they kinda freaked out because they think the boat can only hold maximum 5 people inside. They saw us in the middle of the sea, all 6 of us inside the boat and then they started to curse in local language. Hahaha..
The boatman was very very friendly. You can see that he was actually grinning behind me, over my hyper-enthusiastic behavior because I get to ride that boat. He talked to us, explained a lot of things about the sea, and the fishes and the birds and the corals and everything. He was even wearing a santa hat, merry christmas sir! He also taught me a little about rowing a boat, which, clearly is not my biggest hobby.
Serious face. Seriously don't know how to row a boat.
In the middle of the sea. Everyone's...nervously smiling xD
The ride was fun, except that my cousins were very nervous because that was their first time riding and I guess everyone thought about "what will we do if this thing made us drowning in the middle of the sea" haha.. Actually, that is very rare to happen. But I do adore my cousins for being brave to try. I told them that they don't get to go to Ambon every month, or maybe every year, and even if they did, tit probably will take us some years to get everyone together like this year. Considering that, we might as well enjoy all the fun! I think that is one of important factor in exploring. We have to got the gut to explore all the wonders around. Here's some view along the ride!
I was actually thinking. Would it be a problem if I jump?
The view of the sky was also something you don't want to miss. I do understand what 'the blue of the sky' means now
I strongly suggest you guys to go try this. Ride from Natsepa Beach and then stop at Suli Bawah. The beach is really beautiful. The moment I got there, I was thinking: My, my. My very own private beach. Real nice.
The face of Suli Beach. Amazingly felt like I own the beach.
Because again, this beach is actually the same with Natsepa Beach, but it has different atmosphere. It was calm, because it has less crowd there that Natsepa has. The sand was also whiter and softer, like you can literally lie down there and feel like not wanting to move for hours.
Exactly like that. Muahaha..
One thing I did notice was they also sell rujak here, but it doesn't taste as good as one in Natsepa Beach. Also, you will need to pay 1,000 rupiah to enter this beach. I suggest you start from Natsepa Beach. It is also called Suli Atas beach (yeah, I know. I told you they were actually same beach didn't I? :D). It's around 13 kilometres from the city of Ambon. As usual, you can take angkot to get here. Take the onethat has Duren Patah written on top of it. Keep in mind that if you take this angkot from Pattimura Airport, they will normally cost you 5,000 rupiah. It's a pretty far from the airport. So if you have read my previous post here and I told you to fight the angkot drivers if they ask you to pay 5,000, don't do it to Duren patah angkot drivers. From Duren Patah, take another angkot to Suli and let the driver know that you want to stop at Natsepa Beach, they'll understand you perfectly. Other way around, rent a car, but it probably will cost you at the very least 250,000 rupiah. To enter Natsepa Beach you will have to pay 3,000 rupiah for each person.
Beside indulging in rujak and coconut ice, swimming or building sand castle, you can also get the fun of riding the famous Banana Boat. It's 125,000 rupiah for a 30 minute ride, and it is really a fun way to spend time in Natsepa Beach. They will take you to the middle of the waters aaaaand probably will flip you over from the banana boat to the sea. That is seriously fun! Put your life jacket's on and have fun!!
The waters' striking color. I really should've jump voluntarily.
THE banana boat.
When people asked me whether i'm more like a beach-type or a mountain-type of person, I... can't really answer for sure. I spent my last birthday climbing a mountain for the first time and although it was not an easy way, I think I would love to do it again. Climbing another mountain. But for now, I am totally, totally absorbed in the beauty of the beaches, the ocean, the blue-green waters, the smell of the sea, everything about beach. I've been to some other beaches and by far, the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen is here, in Ambon. So, people, put Ambon on your next travel list. Once in your lifetime you just gotta see a truly beautiful beach. Go see her, I am pretty sure you will have nothing to regret!
Hi there! I'm Rielya, a Psychology graduate, enthusiastic traveler, and an Asian Cultural Representative for Walt Disney World. Also happened to be an explorer and a story teller. I blogged rather clumsily, thank you for stopping by!
"Some things in life are so beautiful they hurt. Like running under the rain, sipping coffee by the wooden window in a sunset-lit empty cafe, the sky full of stars up in the mountain when you have to be miles away from everyone and climbed an exhausting road to see it, the fact that Earth is just a grain in the spacious and endless outer space, walking in the quiet forest and smelling the leaves after the rain kissed them, all the secrets of the universe we haven't discover yet, the dinosaurs, and then you."
