Yen's Family Getaway, Bali ~ Day 2

The Lion like creature, Barong. Balinese believe its a monster.

At Celuk Village. People doing Silver Art and all of their silver jewelries were all hand made.

It doesnt attract me much cos their silver were all mixed with bronze n that makes it less shiny n less attractive to me. But anw, its a great exposure to observe this.

Batuan Village where the paintists there shwo their skills. We were really impressed by their talent.

BatuBulan village. Village of Wooden art. This is one of their product. Wooden carved train.

The hill beside us, its the semi-active volcano-Mount Agung. It last erupted around 40 years ago.

People now dig the larva left from the volcano eruption to build concrete buildings.

Drop by at a coffee plantation. This is a wolf that they call, Luwak.

This wolf smells like Jasmine and it eats coffee beans. The coffe Beans from their shit will be well cleaned and sell as Luwak Coffee. This coffee is one of the most expensive coffe sold in the world. And we managed to order a cup of this to taste. It really have a special aroma n tatste that amazed me.

On the left is what Balinese known as Male Coffee. The coffee beans are in fine rounded shape. Coffee made out of this will taste much thicker. And yeah without doubt, the one on the right is the Female coffee. Its cheaper and thinner taste compared to the male one. And for female coffee beans, they r semi rounded n looks only like half of the bean size.

Holy Spring Temple, which have in total 21 holes flowing out the srping water. Every holes flows out different spring waters that believe to have the power n magic to perform different functions. Such as to sprinkles in a new house to cleanse it and so on. Balinese will usually do rituals or prayers here n wash themselves with spring water from all 21 holes.

Dinner at Jimbaran, a small village that have many restaurants along the seaside.

Barbeque seafood was served that night. Having dinner with the strong sea wind welcoming us is really my first time n it is definitely memorable! 

 

Finally back to the hotel. Picture of me posing with the so called sign board of Hard Rock. As i said earlier, hard rock hotel is really creative in every single detail stuff in the hotel. Furnitures, deisgns, lightings and all. They are really good in it =)
