BALI trip episode 4

second day is my birthday!!
pagi2 lagi dh nangis..Kak Ta blh roaming her hp..so got to talk to Lina..dengar je suara dia..the 1st thing i said to her was "Lina,happy birthday!! jangan la nangis" coz b4 tht i heard Kak Ta,mom and dad talked to her mcm sedih je..mana nak tau after i said tht, Lina betul2 nangis..i pun sayu sama la ..then we hardly talk :((
my whole day felt blue..everywhere i went, i was wondering how would it feel if Lina can join us as we planned b4..we've been planning for our bday celebration in Bali since end of last year...
anyway, went to a craftman's shop and see how they make the pondok ..cantik kan diorg punya carving?

then we headed to watch Barong & Kris Dance..this one tak la best sgt..but the music is nice..its actually gamelan..i love gamelan..

this is the stage where they performed Barong & Kris Dance

Later, we pegi shopping..starting with high class area..then going to cheaper places...this one is like an art gallery

the next stop is a traditional Bali house for a low social-economic status ..tp besar jugak rumah diorg..tak mcm miskin pun dr luar..bila masuk dlm, luas jugak...dia ada byk2 buildings..bilik satu bngnn, dapur satu bngnn, even ada tempat utk letak mayat family yg mati b4 the cremation..plg blkg ada temple kecik..org2 bali ni alim..tp alim Hindu laa..mana2 kita pegi mesti jumpa temple..i think every 500 metres mesti ada 1 temple..pastu tepi2 jalan pun ada org semayang...kagum i tgk.. ni pintu masuk kawasan umah...ala2 pintu pagar laa...kecik je jln masuk nya

ni pintu masuk ke area temple kat blkg...

egg paintings

kat Bali ni, diorg buat art works ikut kampung..satu kampung buat batik, satu kampung buat egg painting, satu kampung buat gold & silverware, satu kampung buat paintings...etc..mcm2 ada..i teringin nk beli satu egg painting..actually mama nk belikan 1 for me for my bday present , tp i takut pecah..sayang la..if i jumpa kat Malaysia sek sok i beli satu..suka la tgk egg painting ni

lepas tu we went to Kintamani Volcanic mountain..only to find tht the whole mountain was covered with thick mist..sayang betul..but the scenery along the way was awesome..

a breath taking view along the way to Kintamani

See the mist behind?tak nampak apa pun

masa nk balik, sempat singgah kat one orchard ni..dia tanam macam2 pokok, n they gave tourists complimentary drinks..up to us nk minum apa..hot coffee, hot choc, hot tea..various flavour plak tu..best..best..mom bought a pack of Bali coffee and choc :)they even produce essential oils..mula2 tu nk beli tp after smelling al of them, i jadi confused..eisykk..tensen je..end up i didnt buy anything

that nite, in order to celebrate my bday, Kak Ta and i went out to get some air..amik pics kat Hard Rock cafe which happened to be located near our chalet..then lepak2 kat Kuta Beach..lama jugak lepak until we got disturbed
