The Diary Game Contest#69: When it's time to harvest the coffee

Without realizing it, we have entered the second month, February in 2025. Time passes so quickly, second by second, day and night pass without us realizing it. Hopefully what we do will run smoothly without obstacles and obstacles. Stay enthusiastic in welcoming the day. This time I am back in this very interesting contest, and don't forget I want to invite my active and creative Steemians @ulfatulrahmah @syidah01 and @kyrie1234 to take part in this very exciting contest.

Okay, let's start this contest in the morning with a bright atmosphere, After finishing cleaning the house I then cleaned my body. It feels so fresh to take a cold shower in the morning. Then I went to the shop to buy breakfast. This morning I wanted to have breakfast with porridge only. My mouth felt like tasting something sweet and soft this morning. When I arrived at the shop there were lots of porridges sold there. There was corn porridge, green bean porridge, sticky rice porridge and others. I chose green bean porridge and corn porridge only for today. After that I paid for my shopping and rushed home.

enjoyed the green bean porridge that I bought at the stall. Meanwhile, I served breakfast for the other family members on the dining table because they didn't want to have breakfast this early. After that I made warm Milo for My Princess and hot coffee for my mother. After finishing making drinks, I sat in my room while chatting with My Princess. Suddenly my cell phone rang, it was my sister who called me. She invited me to visit our family home in the Gayo highlands. At the same time, there were some things my sister needed there. Finally, I got ready to leave. I also prepared lunch and dinner for my mother and My Princess first. Then I changed clothes and after saying goodbye to my mother and child, I left with my sisters and brothers for the Gayo highlands. We drove my sister's car and on the way we stopped to buy milk cake and banana cake for our snacks. On the way.

After two hours of travel, we stopped at Mount Salak. We stopped at a small cafe for breakfast first. The air that was starting to feel cold made our hunger even worse. My sister who was diligent in cooking did not forget to bring food from home. I also helped my sister to carry some of our food. Our lunch menu this time was white rice with grilled fish and soy sauce seasoning, stir-fried pumpkin leaves and added boiled noodles that we ordered at the cafe. Then we also ordered cold sweet tea, hot coffee and mineral water. We enjoyed our lunch so heartily in this cold place. Coupled with the green natural scenery in the area around Mount Salak. This time I ate up to two plates. It tasted so delicious, and maybe the beautiful atmosphere and delicious food made me careless. After we were full, we didn't rush but we relaxed in that place while chatting for a while. Then we prayed Dhuhur first at a mosque not far from that place.

Then we continued our journey. On our next journey, we saw many damaged roads, perhaps due to the rainy season that occurred in recent months. But still, many people came and went in this area. Yes, that's how the Gayo highlands area has developed a lot, especially in the tourism sector. Every holiday, this place is visited by many as a tourist spot.

Finally an hour later we arrived at our destination. We arrived at our relative's house. Our uncle and aunt welcomed us happily and enthusiastically. After shaking hands and hugging, we took a rest at their house. We were treated to snacks and warm tea and of course Gayo coffee with its extraordinary aroma. Although I don't really like drinking coffee, here I like it because it tastes different, tastier and more fragrant.

The expanse of the coffee plantation behind my uncle and aunt's house really caught my attention. I have always dreamed of having a coffee plantation like this until now it has not come true. Slowly I left the house towards the coffee plantation. While my brother, sister, uncle and aunt were chatting, I was busy taking pictures of the green coffee plantation. My uncle and aunt's coffee plantation is very beautiful here. There are many coffee beans that are ready to be harvested with a reddish color.

Of course I immediately posed in this coffee plantation, I took many pictures with my cellphone. I really like this coffee plantation. These coffee beans look big and have a lively color. These coffee trees are so low that it is very easy to harvest the coffee. Several coffee pickers were seen going home after working all morning picking coffee beans. Apparently the coffee harvest is not over yet in this place.

There are many sacks containing coffee beans ready to be sold to areas outside the city. And not long after, the coffee bean transport truck arrived to transport the sacks containing several tons of raw coffee beans to the buyers. Currently, the price of raw coffee beans like this is 18 thousand per kilo. Wow, aren't coffee farmers like this rich, I thought. Hopefully one day I can have my own coffee plantation like this, I whispered to myself.

Without realizing it, the day was getting darker, after the Maghrib prayer we were treated to dinner together by our uncle and aunt. The increasingly cold air made us enjoy the food with great gusto again. After that we said goodbye to go home. My uncle and aunt laughed seeing us cold and it turned out that none of us were wearing cold clothes. After shaking hands and hugging, we finally got into the car that would take us home.

In the middle of our journey we stopped to pray Isha first. The air was incredibly cold. Especially when I took ablution for Isha prayer. I quickly went into the mosque and prayed Isha with my brother and sister. After finishing praying we continued our journey again. After an hour later we stopped again at the small cafe where we stopped earlier this afternoon. Of course the cafe owner was happy to welcome our second visit. Apparently this small cafe had indeed become a regular for my brother and sister when heading to the cold city of Takengon.

Thus my participation in The Diary Game -#69 contest, I would like to say thank you very much to my beloved Steemians who have been willing to stop by my post, and my deepest gratitude to the team in the Steem Ladies Community, especially to the organizers of this contest who have always supported me all this time. Blessings and success to all of us. See you

Warm Regard
