Indonesia

An early start after we got too scared to rent a scooter so had to book an organised tour to see some waterfalls. Turns out this tour though was a private tour!
We were picked up by our driver and set off to our first waterfall. We arrived at what was obviously just an Instagram spot, our driver was very keen on taking the best Instagram photos of us but quickly realised the subjects of the photos were useless at posing. So instead we stood on some rocks and watched everyone else have their Instagram worthy photos.
We then headed to the next waterfall which was definitely the coolest. A huge tower of water that plummeted into a large pool at the bottom. We swam around but made sure not to swim under the water incase we got hit by falling coconuts. We were the only ones bothered about swimming and everyone else just wanted to take insta pics.
We then headed to the water temple. The temple is where local Hindus complete a purification ritual, they wash themselves in the water with each fountain washing away specific sins.
We then headed to the coffee plantation, we saw a Luwak (looks like a mongoose) which eats the coffee beans and then poos them out and then the coffee is used for roasting. We tried 17 different types of tea and coffee and tried the male luwak poo coffee - the most expensive coffee in the world.
We then headed for a lovely lunch with a great view and we had a club sandwich and Gado Gado.
Our guide decide we had a enough time for another waterfall and made sure to take us to one we could swim at. We walked down 90 steps to get to the waterfall, posed on a rock for some photos and then swam for a bit until Sam was too cold. We then walked through the jungle to find another waterfall, then waded across the river to get to a cave and a sacred rock.
Then we headed to the rice terraces where the best thing was the ice cream we got at the shop. It was filled with people wanting to do the classic Bali swing pictures and there wasn’t even any rice because they had just harvested it.
We then headed back, went for a swim in the pool and then headed out for dinner.
We decided that this was the perfect opportunity for Sam to try sushi because everything is so cheap. Terrible idea- some of the worst sushi ever eaten, a tuna roll made with tinned tuna not good. We then headed to a bar for drinks with Zoe and her friend where there was a live reggae band on. Super fun and was given shots of margarita from the table next to us. Said our final goodbyes to Zoe and then headed to bed for our final sleep in Ubud!もっと詳しく
