Surabaya loves December

Welcome December!
After a long hot weeks colourized our activity, this city really miss the rain and its wet season.
Uniquely, the sun never let Surabaya get wet easily. So it still accompany the clouds to warm the sky. As warm as the Surabayans.
But be careful friends. Get prepare for the flood! :)

Wulan Desember wes teko, cuk!
Sak wis-e puanas sak ben dino ngancani awak-awak (nang ndi-ndi panas, sumuk, lan liya-liyane) kutho Suroboyo iki akhire udan pisan. Sing unik, srengenge-ne gak lilo nek Suroboyo ujug-ujug teles. Dadine srengenge-ne tetep ngethok nang walik-e awan pas mendung. Anget. Anget koyok wong Suroboyo-ne.
Tapi ati-ati yo rek. Siap-siap banjir!

Tlaeler dan Tronton Dilarang Masuk

The tlaeler should be written as 'trailer truck', but this is how Surabayans call it because it's easy to say.
This picture taken in Balongsari to Manukan road, where these roads are near industry-area of Margomulyo. The ad tells the trailer drivers not to enter these roads because there are some street foundring in Pakal, Benowo.

Tlaeler iku jane karepe 'trailer', tapi wong ancen lambene wong Suroboyo luwih gampang ngarani-e TLAELER. Larangan iki dipasang nang daerah Balongsari cedek bunderan Margomulyo mergane nang Pakal, Benowo ono pengecoran dalan.
