Bali Day 4

With Day 1 label as The busy Bali City Life, Day 2 as Balinese relaxation, Day 3 as The holiness of Bali, Day 4 will be a conclusion of our Bali Trip with the theme of 'The Nature Walk of Bali'. Reason why it was call as such is due to the place we visited are mainly natural sightseeing.

Day 4 start with normal routine of morning walk around Ubud. We then headed back to our resort swimming pool for a nice swim to start the day with the refreshing mind.

We then pack our luggage and snap thousand of photo around the hotel as remembrance of such a nice hotel.

After a sad bid of good bye, we venture ourselves to Pasar Seni Sukawati which sell local souvenir. There is also one wet market opposite Pasar Seni Sukawati. We start our day with a good and cheap breakfast of Nasi Campur Ayam and Teh Botol for the price of Rupiah 10,000. That is dirt cheap...

Lot of bargain take place in Sukawati and the hardcore seller use what ever tactic to ensure you buy their product. So be extra careful.

Next we headed to Pura Tirta Empul at Tampaksiring. A scared spring temple. It was so holy that ladies with period are not allowed to enter the holy water area. The first Gabenor of Indonesia owned a residences at the hill beside the temple. The spring water is so cooling that it feel like waterfall water. There is some local residences take a dip inside the holy water to clean away all sin and get blessing from the goddess.

Next stop is to Kintamani to have a spectacular view of Mount Batur also known as Batur Gunung Berapi. The view is stunning and we snap photo non stop that some of our camera run out of battery or memory. The volcano is still active although it had not erupted for many years. We just wont know when will it erupt again. However, the left over lava from the previous eruption is still clearly to be seen.

The stunning view left our jaw dropping and we hardly want to say good bye to this area. However due to shortage of time, we even have to cancel off our buffet lunch overseeing the volcano. The only annoying part about Mount Batur visit is the seller keep on hardcore selling their product to us even we have decline zillion of time. Well, we do have some victim who is kind enough to buy something from them....hehehe..

We then headed to Tegalalang Terrence for the paddy field over the hill. The road from Kintamani to Tegalalang was actually very near but due to closure of the main road for repair, our driver have no choice but to use a hilly, and isolated road that taken about 1 hour of our time. Time was wasted and we are extremely hungry by the time we arrive Tegalalang that we snap few photos and settle ourselves for late lunch.


It was already 3pm when we left Tegalalang and we must be at airport by 6pm. The journey from Tegalalang to Denpasar Airport will be around 2 hour depending on the traffic. I know last minutes shopping at Legian or Kuta sound impossible already thus we arrange for Denpasar shopping for local delicacy to be brought back. What else if not Kuih Lapis. As I am not fan of Kuih Lapis, I didnt buy any but the others buy at least one Kuih Lapis to bring back. The price is 90,000 Rupiah for Kuih Lapis that weight about 500gram. It taste good from the sample provided. Maybe it was still popping hot from the oven.

We arrive at Airport at 5.20pm and we snap the last photo with Mr Bagus, our driver for the whole trip. If there is one things i purchase during Bali trip that I really treasure the most, I would say the amount pay to engage Mr Bagus as driver and the MPV is something I will never ever forget. It was the best things we ever hire in Bali.

As we check in and do last minutes shopping at Denpasar Airport, Shyan Hui and Oi Mei that depart much later than us when to Kuta Shopping Mall and shop in Sogo. Shyan Hui manage to do last minutes manicure and pedicure before headed back to KL.

Flight with AirAsia is always pleasant. It depart on time and arrive slightly earlier but the landing for this flight is kinda bad as it was too shaking. The plane also park super far from the arrival hall that by the time we walk and complete our custom, it had already been 1 hour wasted and by the time we arrive KL Sentral, all public transport already terminate their services.
