Day 3- 25th July 2012
Woke up early in the morning
Enjoyed our last breakfast at Jocs Boutique Hotel
Checked out and waited our driver came to fetch us
Fell asleep again in the car as it took quite a long time to reach Ubud (I think about 30-40mins)

1st station- visited Batu Bulan Batik & Weaving center
Witnessed the process of making of Batk
Reminded me the life I was in Form 6 which I learnt to make Batik from my Art Club teacher advisor ^^
Amazed by the beauty of the Batik that the center made
then I decided to buy 1 set of Batik cloth for mum as the birthday present
* I curi-curi tangkap gambar =P

2nd station- Celuk Gold & Silver Center and Batuan Ubud Painting of Bali
The places a must to visit if you wish to know more about Bali's culture
However, we didn't spend so much time at these 2 places (about 10 mins for each place)

3rd station- Batuan Temple
A very nice temple with fantastic scenery
Just like what Abang Suki said, it can be compared with the Besakih Temple
Just the Batuan Temple is in smaller size only
There was a lot of visitors when we reached there
Taking pictures for non-stop ^^


four lengluis here ^^

4th station- Ubud Rice Terrence
 Enjoyed the breathtaking scenery and the fresh air here
Anyway we were too lazy to walk around the rice terrence - the place where Abang Suki suggested
so we might miss out some nice pictures of there..hehe..too tired to walk lah..(ytd climb too much at Blue Point Beach)
 Green view of Rice Terrence! Felt fresh there!

 The only pic we took together with our driver- Abang Suki

5th station- Visited the Kintamani Volcano 
Enjoyed the nice view there and 
the weather is as fresh as Genting Highland!! Cool!! 
Had our lunch-porridge just at the roadside
5ppl sat 1 row eat together..haha..some of the tourists staring strangely at us due to curiosity
by the way, due to wanna save cost, we gave up the Kintamani buffet 

 6th station- Tegenungan the Garden Cocoa Bali Coffee Fruit Platation
Tried 5 type of coffee there- Ginger coffee, Lemon coffee, Bali coffee, Ginseng coffee and hot chocolate
Like the Ginseng and Ginger coffee so much!! It really taste nice!
By the way, gave up to try the famous Luwak coffee there due to some reasons:
1. high price for just a small cup
2. scare my stomach beh tahan..long journey to go for that day >.<

7th station- Tirta Empul Temple
The temple is famous for its holy water


 Large water spring there. Ppl went there for purification.

8th station- Goa Gajah temple

 Posing in front of the entrance of Elephant Cave

9th station- Bebek Bengil
Time to have our dinner- the famous dirty duck dinner
We just ordered a set of the dirty duck
haha..taste not bad...

Last station- Sri Cottage Hotel
Checked-in our hotel finally
Kei Chee, Tiff, Chew Wei and Qiao Leng all went out again to buy some food after they put their luggage in the room
and I remained in the room to take some rest ^^
After they back, we then had a night swim at the swimming pool of the hotel
oh gosh! the swimming pool water is cold like hell!
I cant stop giggling once I entered into the water..
by the way, still have fun there.. hehe..

Slept early on that night...
The wonderful next day is coming ^^

TO BE CONTINUED.....
