We travelled Bali from Canggu all the way to the northern parts on Thursday. Our friend Rega from Bali took us to some cool spots and answered all of my questions patiently. I can be very curious 🙂
First stop was the best roadside restaurant for pork. I think I had pork prepared in 7 different ways, and after chewing on something tasty & crispy like chips, Rega explained that it was fried intestine. I skipped the slice of liver though…
Visited a Botanical Garden. So peaceful and made me realize how much I miss being in the woods…
Then a stop at this temple. Outside was a sign that asked ladies on their period to stay outside. Apparently we’re considered a bit “dirty” for a holy place while playing bloodsports… Interesting! Luckily I was dressed properly at least 🙂
Made another roadside stop for more pork. Also got to feed some bananas to the wild monkeys wohooo… They were a bit wild though, and one monkey didn’t hesitate to run up from behind and snatch Andrew’s water bottle from his hands hahahaaa…
My favorite was this small hike with 4 different waterfalls. You could jump into 3 of them, and the jumps where 5, 10 and 15 meters. I’m too chicken to jump into anything water-like from heights, but it was fun watching the tough-ones leap the cliffs! The last waterfall was about 40m, and apparently someone jumped from it and died it, so now it’s off limits.
We started at 6am and got back at 9pm. Crashed into bed after an awesome-sauce day of adventures and exploring!
