Monkey Forest & Tegenungan Waterfall

Today we walked to the Monkey Forest Sanctuary. This is a large forest where the monkeys are free to roam, but it is extremely touristy! You see monkeys roaming the streets before you arrive at the sanctuary, but this is nothing compared to the vast amount of monkeys you see once you enter! We saw many people getting the infamous 'selfie' shot and toyed with the idea ourselves. The handler uses food to position the monkeys resulting in a photo that looks like the monkey is taking a selfie!

We saw a range of monkeys from the big boys chilling with their balls out, to the tiniest baby monkeys I have EVER seen. They were so small that they could barely walk! We were even treat to a couple of live sex shows from the randy ones.

From here, we got bikes to the Tegenungan Waterfall. Due to the recent rain, the waterfall wasn't actually open to swim in sadly so we didn't bother going for the close up, instead we went to the Omma Dayclub. You had to spend a certain amount to get a pool bed, so we sat at the bar on the top floor where I enjoyed a delightful smoothie bowel and we shared sushi (inspired by Hannah's obsession). We then enjoyed a swim in the pool, but annoyingly we didn't have our own table. Here people get the good photo shots looking out at the waterfall and we were entertained by the finger pointing woman!

That evening, we had a treat night and went to an Indonesian restaurant called, 'Liap Liap' that Tom had picked out. Everything we had was absolutely delicious! We shared the grilled fish which was tasty and then the young coconut pudding which was like a bread pudding which was amazzzing!Read more
