Bali Day 2


good morning, bali!

We stayed at Kuta Townhouses in Kuta(near denpasar). It was located at Poppies Lane 1. It was a decent-sized apartment operated by an Australian named Andrew. It was like a mini Australia and we were the only Chinese tourists there.

Breakfast was provided every morning from 8:00am to 11:00am. pancakes, fried noodles, fried rice, toast, salad, sandwich....
After breakfast, we went to Batubulan for the Barong Dance performance. The entrance fee was Rp80k per person. Barong was a creature that Balinese treat as idol.
After the show, we proceeded to a batik shop.
then, we headed to Ubud for the infamous Bebek Bengil (Dirty Duck) for lunch. The restaurant was located next to a paddy field and we got to have lunch viewing the field and enjoying the breeze.
After lunch, it was time to continue our journey again. Our next stop was Goa Gajah - a historical place where some Balinese monks meditated.
After Goa Gajah, we visited a temple - Tampaksiring (a holy spring). It was a place where Balinese wash themselves believing that the holy water will bring them good luck and health.
Bali was a volcanic island. Mount Batur at Kintamani was one of the moutains and it had a great lake beside it. Together, they made a magnificent view.
After visiting Mount Batur, it was time to go back to Kuta for dinner. We decided to pay Warung Made a visit. It was highly recommended on the internet, but just like any food you can find in m'sia, so tourists, do come to m'sia! However, we do recommend the refreshing Papaya Lemon and Pineapple Lemon.
That was Day 2 at Bali - it was very exhausting :). We canceled the plan to go shopping at night because all of us were so tired to even move our toes.
