Hanifah and Odong-odong
11 January 2007, Family
She is Hanifah, my 8 months old daughter. Call her Nifa, than she will move her face to you. If you were lucky, she will smile or laugh at you. Please do not talk to loud to her as she is a sensitive baby and will not talk to you ever if you do that.
She is now already an odong-odong fans. When the time is come (usually at 16:00 – 17:30) and odong-odong with their special song pass in front of my neighbourhood, she will move her head and body looking for it. She will give a sign for us to quickly get out from our house and bring her to get closer to odong-odong.
There are many types of odong-odong. So far, I see only 2 types of them that often pass in front of my house. 1 type is odong-odong which have a bird head and a long box behind it to carry a few children (up to 8 child) tour around the neighbourhood and another type with some miniature of motorcycle (Hanifah favorite) or animals that just turn upside-down and going nowhere. The price is 500 rupiah for 1 song. They all powered by human.
Wanna try Odong-odong and share the joy with Hanifah? :)
