EXPLORING THE EAST PART OF BALI TRIP

The morning we left Ubud was beautifully sunshine. I am traveling together with my cousin PUTU to east Bali to pick up his friend that staying at TIRTA AYU cottage at Tirta gangga water palaces Karangasem.It nearly took us 2 hours from Ubud to reach their place before we begin the trip to see the mother temple Besakih and kintamani with its beautiful volcano and the lake.

The palaces in Tirtagangga are look beautiful in the morning . due to there only few people that I could see spending their morning time at the palace.I look up to the hotel where the french couple are having their breakfast with its beautiful view. their name is Jean and Gabriele.they are very nice couple.
Our journey start at 09.15 in the morning. first our destination are Besakih temple. on the way to get there we had some stop at the village Selat for its beautiful rice paddy view
I had lost for some direction on the way since there are so many litle tiny road spreading arround which make me so confuse to drive my toyota kijang.finally we made it after some point direction that we ahve to ask with some of the local people arround.the view and the atsmosphere was stunning.
we got at Besakih temple arround 11.30 am . It take arround an hour or so to go arround the temple and ofcourse to get some beautiful pictures of the people who are doing pilgrimade trip to this hugh beautiful temple. we saw lots of schooll children who are got along for this ritual trip.

Continuing the trip to Kintamani through the village of Suter finnaly we arrive at Kintamani for the lunch since jean and gabriele are also hungry and so are we.trip continuing after lunch to the coffee plantation and Penglipuran village before we are heading back since its already 5 o'clock in the afternoon.
