it was magic

I went to bali again with my friend Linda from work and I had a very different holiday this time.  I managed to catch up with a few people I know over there which was good.  Our usual driver took us to tanah lot, the famous sea temple, and we were lucky that the weather was quite nice and there were hardly any tourists that day which is unusual.  We went to ubud for the day and our other driver got lost.  Nothing serious.  On the way to kintamani which is near the volcano and lake batur we stopped at the upside down house and saw a magic show which we really enjoyed.  We had lunch overlooking the crater and the air up there is beautiful.  We stopped at a coffee plantation and the royal family temple on the way back.  We missed the butterfly park (which I’ve seen before) and gave the waterfall a miss this time as we were hot and tired and had had enough for one day (I’m not getting any younger).  The hotel we stayed at is beautiful and close to everything.  We watched a balinese dance performance on the beach one night and released a baby turtle on our first day which was on Linda’s bucket list.  we ate some great food and Linda loves fruit and was happy to buy as much as possible as the prices were so cheap compared to australia.  We had a great time.
