2011-09-30 Bali: Day 4 - Lovina, Elephants, Volcano












Packed up and had breakfast, but Roxy did not like her powder with mango today, and she's gone off mangos - what a shame.

Left at 9am to Taro Elephant Sanctuary where elephants were enclosed, and looked after, but still chained up when they were not being taken around. A little sad, but the girls enjoyed the ride. One trainer per elephant for their whole lives which is a pretty amazing relationship. There was a show where the elephants performed some tricks. Aiysha saw  something underneath the elephant, and she had no idea what it was - was a bit embarrassed when I told her :-)

Set off for Lovina, and stopped off at  Lake Butu and Volcano - Mt. Butu - Maddy said he was taking some clients up there tomorrow - looked like a long trek!

Stopped for lunch overlooking the volcano - buffet where Roxy kept on dropping things on the floor, then another 2 hours to Lovina. Arrived at 4.40 at Cleopatra. Maddy said goodbye to us all, and was a bit sad leaving us. Nice place though, with a pool all to ourselves! Right on the beach front where we did some gymnastics and exercise, and walked out when it was shall. We also went hermit crab hunting which was great fun.

Kept on hitting my head on mangos hanging from a big mango tree. We realised that Aiysha lost her nighty too. Me and Roxy were TV buddies before bed watching some local indonesian TV and putting on voices - really funny! Played mastermind, and finished some mangos for pudding.

Dinner: Gado Gado, Mie Goreng, Spag bol, Satay.

Another great day!
