    Chocolate and ATV’s

    October 14, 2022 in Indonesia ⋅ ☁️ 82 °F

    Driving on our scooters is going really well. No problems or issues. (knock on wood) It feels like we’re going really fast, top speed so far 42kph - which as it turns out is only about 27th. Sure feels faster. It is on narrow roads with lots around us, so the crowding makes it feel faster as well.

    We drove out to Ubud Chocolate factory, which turned out to not really to be a factory, just a store that makes the chocolate right there. It was true chocolate - only ingredients were cocoa and coconut (as the sweetener). It was bitter, but still pretty good.

    After that we found a beautiful place for lunch - outdoors with huts over koi ponds. It’s been fun ordering things when we have no idea what they are.

    Then we went for an ATV ride thru the jungle. This was pretty extreme. More so than what we did in Jordan. At times felt like we were boating more than we were riding. I put the GoPro on time lapse on accident so I included a video of us doing a portion of the course.

    Overall a really fun day.
