    May 28 in Indonesia ⋅ ☁️ 19 °C

    Woke early and was collected by car at 03:15 to go on the jeep Mount Batur sunrise tour. Collected another girl Melissa who was also from the UK so that was nice and made the trip by having someone to talk to.
    We drove for around 1.5 hours to the mountain where we transferred onto a jeep with another girl from Paris who had limited English, we took a very very bumpy hilly ride up to the volcano and did not see the sunrise as it was too cloudy !

    we had breakfast there and I had Snake skin fruit for the first time

    We’ve then drove up the volcano and stopped to look at the Black volcanic rock.

    Next we drove on to the hot Springs which again was not what myself and Melissa expected it was lovely, but very smelly and full of flies more like big swimming pools with very hot water. We stayed there about half an hour as it felt quite dirty. Finally our driver took us back to our hotel rooms. Altogether took around eight hours.
    Back at hotel I chilled around the pool. Very overcast here in ubud.

    I’ve then walked down to the monkey forest. Paid the £5 entrance fee and I had a nice stroll around, seeing all the. monkeys.

    Back to my hotel for dinner as I’ve got another early start in the morning getting collected at 4 am to go to airport to fly to Labuan Bajo
