20100308 Bali - Day 3

Was an early bird the day before. Today, begin journey rather late, at 10am.

Went to a garden, entrance fee = IND 9k. After visiting the Besakih Temple, all temples look the same to me now. Oh... btw, Pura = Besakih.

There's an Ole-ole Bali restaurant in Sunway Pyramid in which I find the food there is quite nice. From the driver, I was told that ole-ole = souvenir. In Bali, they have their own language. And their national language is Bahasa Indonesia.






This garden has a moat, just like a castle in UK and a palace in China. The moat is full of water-lilies now.




Had lunch on the way uphill. Today, we're smarter. We had heavy hotel breakfast and just ordered some light bites. A plate of spring rolls and sweet and sour fillet with rice cost IND 94k.






After lunch, we continued our journey to a botanical garden. The weather was cooling at the mountain. Nice greeneries, nice weather for a while, then, it rained. Entrance fee to the park = IND 33k.

There's a commando training ground. You can see a guy hanging between the trees in the photo below.

I have no such courage. Better 脚踏实地.


Cactus farm.





Interesting lover's tree, or tree in love?



Then, we went to Lake Batur, again have to pay entrance fee of IND 35k. There, we bumped into a group of Taiwanese tourists. One of the guys was very friendly and kept talking to us when he overheard that we spoke Hokkien. He told me that I have to visit Taiwan.
See how Mama Peh pry open the wall using her qi-gong. Hah...hah...

Hello Kitty vs Doraemon umbrellas. Sigh... 老还童.



At 6pm, we reached Tanah Lot. Have to walk thru the street of shopping booths to reach the seaside. Huh... hot weather, crowded, full of tourists. My ren-duo-phobia kicked in. How I wish I could just lie down in my hotel room.
