Bali: Kintamani > Pura Tirta Empul > Tegallala > Ibu Oka

Day started with breakfast, today is banana pan cake, plus fruit mix again, i like this...

Today we are leaving Narasoma, we check out on morning, and put our luggage with Mr Badra... Here is the room that i said as definite Balinese style... at 3rd or top floor, no air con, but now is raining season that not so hot....

First destination today is Kintamani, to Mount Batur, a valcona in Bali, black area in picture is lava from elapse few years ago... Intelligent effort is make use of this gift from god to develop agriculture and construction... that's why you can see a lot building and even sand is in black colour, those are treasure from deep deep earth... Is cloudy when we are there... but not so bad that not raining... A lot people is having buffet at restaurant with nice view to Mt Batur... but i don't go for that... those buffet really cost you for nice view, not delicious food... haha...

After that is raining and we come to Pura Tirta Empul.... is cold, but that doesn't resist passion of Hindu prayer....

Air suci, holy water, which make your mind clear and peace....

Terrace rice is another amazing man made scene in Bali at few location, the one we visit is at Tegalala...

This is right after harvesting season, and raining season, thus you can see only wet soil terrace.... Paddy normally planted at wide flat land, but farmer who started this many many years ago is caused by limited flat land and after by group who concur those limited flat land....
From Tegallala to Ubud, is a long street with a lot craft art for sales, a lot distributor come here to find treasure for their business... i can see few foreigner go around with motorbike, together with forwarder service to ship their item..

We back to Ubud for this.. Ibu Oka, is near to junction at the end of Jalan Monkey Forest, the photo shared on Ubud.

People come Ibu Oka for grill pork meal... taste nice... maybe grill pork is not really common in Malaysia...

Shoot this aunty at road side... ladies here normally use their head to carry goods.....
