I still can’t figure out why I couldn’t sleep last night. After completing my “cloning” activities, I went on to have supper at the hotel restaurant at about 2am. I knew I was in trouble when I went to bed at 4am. 830Am was the time I told the Polos, the driver to wait for me at the lobby. I woke at at 910am. Eh, not too bad.

We planned our itinerary over breakfast and very soon, we were out of the hotel and heading for potential spots for the Pre-Wedding shoot next week. The hour long rides seem to be over quickly as we were engrossed in our conversations, exchanging information about our countries.

 This is the season for creamation in Bali. From what I understand, it is a ceremony to cremate the departed. Some temples were filled with people as they took part in the ceremony. Bodies or remains (dug from graves) are placed in decorated “coffins” and cremated in temples. The ashes are then scattered to both the sea and the mountains.

 Here are some images from my trip tday.

 

 

The notorious primates of Uluwatu. Always hunting for loose accesories from tourists.

The Oasis Boutique Beach Resort where I am putting up. I was looking at this view while writing this post:D Did you see the devil wielding his axe in the clouds?

 

So much for a long day, at least the recce was done and plans are drafted. Looking forward for the dives tomorrow. I know it will be good:)
