Myself and 4 other hostel friends decided to go up to Ubud for the day. if any of you have read "Eat, Pray, Love" when the woman is in Bali, she's mostly in Ubud. Just a little fun fact. It's about an hour and half drive away from Kuta, but the drive is really beautiful. It was so cool to actually get out of the main touristy part for a bit and just see natural Bali.
Rice Fields. Something I was really looking forward to seeing. It was just green. So lush and beautiful.
So Lovely :)
They had a giant market in Ubud. It was so full on and really exshausting. Natasha and I got seperated from the others so we went off shopping. Neither of us bought anything, however I got whipped in the back with a dress by a woman because I wouldn't buy it. As I was walking away she was yelling "20 thousand!!" which is only $2.. so it was a super deal for a cute dress, but she whipped me! So no way! haha
Now, I'm not the biggest fan of monkeys, but when you visit Ubud, you basically have to go to monkey forest. Basically all it is a path that leads to this forest/park thing and it's full of monkeys. They aren't in cages, they are just walking around. Free to jump on you, pull at your clothes is you wish. Now, I made sure that didn't happen to me, but there were people with monkeys on their shoulders just loving life.
I admit, the babies were really cute. There were heaps of babies too.
So concludes our day in Ubud. It was really lovely.
