+ Hello people! after long time without updating the blog here we come again! in the meantime we have been changing continent twice and doing plenty of stuff, but ok, that will be told later, in due time. Now let´s focus on Bali. Bali is just amazing. It is such an interesting island with its own culture, very different from the rest of Indonesia. Most of people here are hindus in contrary to the main country's religion, islam.And they are very "practican" (will see that later). The Balinese people is great, very sympathetic and funny and their food, well, it is not thai food but it is very niceeeee and cheap!
+ So, step by step. Our first destination was Kuta. Our first nigth was really not good because we arrived at 1AM in the morning, it was raining and we even hadn't had dinner. We could just grap so food at the Kentaky fried Chicken!!! Wow. Our first fast food experience after two very-proud-of-ourselves months. But that was just the first night. Next morning we found a wonderful guest house (with swimming cooool) and we discovered THE Beach! what a beach; white sand, huge waves and plenty of people to talk with. The best perhaps was the sunsets after a hard day of surfing. We did a surfing course and we basically Rock it! after less than 20 minutes were we both up on the board surfing like the great proffesionals... well, almost as good :)
Our lovely guest house: "Kedins II"
Kuta Beach
* + Kuta is also known for its parties. That's exactly what we did. We found a very cool place where they gave drinks and food for free: Excellent to keep the budget!
A one day trip to Uluwatu
+ The balinese people, mostly hindus, have temple for every god, everywhere. They basically build these temples to protect themselves from various issues, especially from natural disarters like volcanos explosions, storms and Tsunamis. This temple is built in the south of the island, on a cliff and is supposed to protect them from the ocean. The location is really breathtaking.
+ As you will observe in the pictures, we are wearing very nice skirts. Well, they are not skirts, they are called "sarong" and are compulsory for entering into religious areas. Check out our style!!
+ The surf in the south is extreme. Many people die every year due to either rip currents or to crashes with the coral reef under water. Defenitively not the place for learning...
