Sunday - Bali Blog 12- Recovery day!

Sunday 15th February

We arrived back at the hotel just before 12 pm, so we were out for almost exactly 12 hours trekking the volcano. The first thing we did when we got back to our room was get a much needed shower, it was so refreshing. Afterwards, Tagel's wife made us some strawberry juice. Now this was awesome! It was just what I needed so cool and juicy with so much flavour! I do love strawberries! 
We were so tired though after spending the whole night walking we ended going to sleep for a few hours and wasted our last afternoon in Ubud! :(

What we found out was whilst trekking Mount Agung was that it is nowhere near as popular as Mount Batur, as us and the two other groups were the only ones on Mount Agung last night. Whereas Mount Batur is so much smaller, loads of people do it. There can be more that 200 people on the mountain at one time in the wet season and I think close to 1000 in the dry season! Crazy! So I would definitely recommend climbing Mount Agung, even if it does take longer.

Bed time in Ubud!
We decided we would head out for some food and ended up in Warung Schnitzel with another strawberry juice (not as good as Tagel's wife's one but it was tasty enough) and a tofu stir fry. It was too hot and I was too tired to enjoy it, plus I don't think my body had recovered from being awake all night, so I wasn't very hungry.
I think I was also disappointed that we had wasted our last day in Ubud, so we just went back to our hotel and watched The Birdcage on Rob's tablet. It's one of my favourite movies and I do love Robin Williams, so funny! 
It wasn't the most exciting evening for our last one in Ubud but I was much happier in the room before bed then in the heat! 

So sad our time is nearly up! I wish we could stay forever but then if we did we wouldn't make it to Bulgaria next week for Skiing! Woop, woop more holidays! :D
