Welcome 'Me' Back.....


Thanx Ilyas for the support of getting me back on track. Anyway, since i stop writing for few months, a lot of things happen to me which i prefer to convey in simple words. First, on last month, I had a wonderful and unforgetable moment in Bali...yeah a place you should go at least once in your lifetime....I went with 2 friends and my beloved one...(kind of like our pre honemoon la) hahah..

We stayed there for 6 days (gosh I wish it was longer). I always planned to go sumwhere such as Bali since last year! (always plan-plan tapi slalu tak jadi *sigh ). But I managed to go at last!!







Our hotel is awesome! Nothing much to say but it was ok overall. We stayed in Tuban (not that far from Kuta - 5 minutes drive). We arrived late night which we supposed to arrive early that evening due to some 'darnest' mistake that we've ever done. (Only the four of us know why)

We get up early the next morning. Can't wait to start our journey! For a start, we travel up north of Bali to see one of the most volcanically active regions of the world, Mount Batur.
It took us almost 2 hours from our hotel to reach there. The Volcanic lies beneath the Batur Lake and we had a tour around the lake via boat for 15 minutes. There is this village-so-called graveyard ( there's no exactly graveyard!), Kuburan Desa Trunyan.




Here at the village, all the dead bodies are placed at a tree called Taru Menyan. It is claimed that the tree have these magical characteristic of having the ability to absorb odor from the dead body, whic is true! We went to see the body and surprisingly there's no smell at all! But what a lifetime experience for all of us to see fresh dead bodies lies beneath the tree!


After we get out from the village, as we heading back to our car, a lot of villagers trying to approcah us to sell stuffs such as necklace, handicraft, etc. At first I bought few necklaces, just to help them gain some income at first i tought. But once I paid, there's more villagers approaching us like MONSTER! Infact one of the lady is crying & begging me to buy her stuff. She claims that she had not much money to buy food...(yeah right). But I just ignore all them and ran to our car and shut the door...so you guys, my advice...once u go there do not buy ANYTHING from them...





Ok to make it short here are some places that we visited after having a terribles experince with the un-civillized villagers...






At Goa Gajah







At Sangeh ( Monkey Park)





Tanah Lot (watching sunset)



Uluwatu







Kecak Dance
