3rd day in Bali. This time we were at the temple which I’ve been to a year ago. They call it the Holy Spring Temple. People or the locals come over here and go into the water and wash their faces. It’s all in Ubud. There was this hot water rising from the pond too. Weird. But amazing. Weird enough we took an upskirt photo.

After that the next destination was at BAS agrowisata, where we tasted the luwak coffee. Hnmmm… still tasted as nice. It was around Rp.50000. Not bad and we got free tasting of a lot of other types of coffee. Arabica (McDONALD’S coffee), Bali coffee, ginseng coffee, female coffee (yes there was a coffee this name). Though we didn’t get to try the male coffee as its expensive.

Time to move on and now we are at the restaurant called Grand Puncak Sari Kintamani. From here we could Mt Batur, an inactive volcano. Superb view and the food is so so. Well price was Rp.80000 and after tax it was Rp.97000. 21% tax.

Moving ahead it was a rush straight back to Uluwatu to catch the sunset. The driver (Angus) drove at his best and when we reached there it was 615pm. Sun is still there. Too bad clouds are there too. Darn…. so didn’t get to take sunset photo again. Nevermind tomorrow will be the last time we could take.

Haven’t been doing this for awhile. So since have a few time here and in the hotel, I then decided to do some short post about my first day in Bali 2011. Yes there was a trip in 2010 and I haven’t written anything yet.

So not to delay any further. First day was officially 2nd May 2011. 1st May was instead checking in to hotel. Our driver drove us starting at 830am and off we go to Nusa Dua (the place that I didn’t get to visit during my last visit here). Though we had a quick detour and went to had a time at a dance being performed. It was a role play dance performance with humour. The price was Rp.80000. Expensive.

Finally Nusa Dua was next. Looks like nothing much for me here though. More for people who loves watersports. I guessed the driver was promoting the events there but we weren’t interested. So off we go to our next destination.

We were off to Taman Ayun Mengyi Royal Temple. Unlike the temples I visited previously, this one had lots of people, where we got to interact with the people there. There was this Balinese girl over there who thought that we were from Korea (I was wearing South Korea jersey) kept singing “Merah Merah Merah” as me, my bro and Yong wore red. Hahaha… was so funny. By the way entrance fee was Rp. 3000. The people there posed for the camera.

Finally time for lunch. We were brought to a place which is Pacung Restaurant. It was a buffet. Initial price was Rp.80000 and the food was ok. Though after tax (yes government tax…..) the total was Rp. 96000 after 20% tax. Roars.

Finally next destination, it was Ulundanu Bratan Temple. Superb place. The temple is seperated from the land. The view was magnificent. You’ll know once I start posting photos from the NIKON D300 instead from the HTC. The entrance fee was Rp. 10000. Something funny happened again. A group of locals wanted to take photos with us. Must have been the Korea jersey. Epic okay.Finally time to go to our next destination.

Tanah Lot…. the famous place in Bali. Supposed to be there for a sunset photo. Too bad, it wasn’t meant to be. There were too much clouds. On the way there, many shop peddlers were selling souvenirs. One of them is a wooden penis. Hahaha.

Darn…. finally nothing much, its time to go back to our hotel.

Officially back from Indonesia (Yogyakarta – Jakarta – Bali) just 2 days ago and since I am still doing some photo processing, here’s the group that went for the trip. It’s like a place I would love to go again for more photoshoots and relaxation.

Officially danielctw.com will still be around, but stay tune for another upcoming blog which shows a whole new different perspective of what I will be blogging about. Strange isn’t it? Why can’t I keep to one blog? Well, there’s a reason for it. I am going niche.

So be sure to keep an eye on more photos and group photos and more and more photos in this blog. Love the photo? Why not join us next time for other trips?
