This weekend is the weekend my office mates from same division have been waiting for.

We have made a plan to do an event to strengthen the sense of familiship by playing to a park in the city of Binjai, North Sumatra called Jona Garden. We hold this event once a year, counting as a release from busy days in the office.
This place has many exciting and family-friendly rides. There are several fun rides to try, they also have a swimming pool for children and adults. The ticket prices are also affordable.

The price of entry into the park is very reasonable. Adults are 15.000 rupiah ($0.9) and children are 10.000 rupiah ($0.6). We rented a hut to hang out and put our stuff in. The cottage was right by the lake. The lake is very wide, a very hot day casts very beautiful shadows on it.

After piling into the hut discussing the rundown and karaoke for a while to have fun.

Then at the free event, we were all allowed to enjoy the rides. The first ride my friends and I went on was the ATV with a ticket price of 20.000 rupiah ($1.2) for 2 laps. It was very exciting and fun.

Then we went on a boat ride to go around the vast lake. This ride was slower and the wind blowing during the ride made the heat I felt a little less. I rode this ride twice.

Look, it's so hot. The sun was so bright.

When I was back on land again, I was looking for cold food/drinks that could relieve this heat. The choice fell on ice cream. As expected, the ice cream did not have time to melt because it was gone so fast 😂.

There are actually many rides in this place, there are kora-kora, rickshaw, odong-odong ( trolley train for simple version), and flying fox.

The flying fox was very interesting but it was very scary to be up there.

The one ride I went on was odong-odong twice.
If you just want to enjoy the view, you can also play on this hanging swing.

It's a great weekend to play and have fun together. It doesn't have to be expensive, the important thing is that everyone is happy.
