What a thunderstorm 🙈

வெளியிடப்பட்டது: 24.05.2018

In the middle of the night, we were awakened by a loud bang 😯, it was terrible! I was convinced that half of the hotel must be gone, but then we quickly realized it was a thunderstorm. Then a heavy rain followed 🙈, crazy. Unfortunately, the thunderstorm lasted for a while, so there was no chance for sleep.

At around 7:00 am, the alarm went off, because I thought today was the bike tour 🙈😂, hmm, but that's tomorrow. I completely messed up the days 😇! Well, then I turned over to the other side and went back to sleep.

After our delicious breakfast, we had to rearrange our plans. We wanted to hike a trekking trail today, surrounded by rice terraces and surrounded by the jungle 😀. The weather conditions were good for that. The sun was hidden by the clouds, so we could happily start the Campuhan Ridge Walk. We quickly found the starting point of the famous trekking trail👍 and at the same time, the sun came out 🤨. The path was paved with stone slabs, which was very pleasant. It went slightly uphill at first, and whenever you looked to the left/right, there were lush green rice terraces in the jungle. It looks so beautiful. I would have loved to put a chair there and stayed there the whole time 🤗. Fortunately, we kept walking 😉, because we were able to watch some local women harvesting rice and take photos. We thought that was great. But what those women do there is really hard work ☹️! One woman cuts off some rice bunches with a small sickle and hands them to her colleague. She keeps hitting the bunch on a sieve over and over again, so that the grains separate from the stems. That goes on all day long!

At some point, the path turned into a road and you could tell by the traffic. We turned around and walked back the same way. When we finally arrived, we refreshed ourselves in a nice bistro👍. Because now it was time for culture 🧐. It's a shame that the trekking trail wasn't twice as long 😂. First, we visited a temple😀, okay I have visited quite a few temples in Asia now, but here they are all quite manageable and you usually can't even get to the main temple because the gate is always closed. Well, that's a shame, of course, but it doesn't really bother me 😇!

Now we went to the palace in Ubud! Well, I'm quickly done with the palace report: What was that? Here too, all gates were closed, constantly stopping, so it was not worth it at all 😎!

Now we wanted to go back to the hotel and what struck me on the way back were the many stray dogs here as well ☹️! Some look so bad, it almost brings tears to my eyes.

Right now we're lying by the hotel pool, relaxing for the evening. We wanted to take the hotel shuttle bus to the center and have a cocktail🍹 on Maren's birthday. Happy birthday again, dear Maus 😘🎉🎊!

Best regards, Anke and Daniela

PS: Tomorrow we're going on the bikes👍😇😂
