Bali - Kuta


One of the popular beach resorts in Bali is called Kuta. We stayed here for 2 days and it pretty much sucks. The beach was packed with people and every minute there are hordes of people who wanted to take pictures of me or sell me some useless stuff. After one time to the beach we decided to stay at the hotel pool because it's really nice and calm there. The hotel pool looks amazing in the night!
Bottles
We went to the Turtle Island were they farm and raise turtles of all kinds. They had giant turtles and small ones as well. There was also a funny monkey trying to take my camera.
Patting the turtle!
Giant bats
Snorkeling has always been awesome in places like Thailand and Vietnam but here it was awful. There were no choral, no colorful fish and the visibility in the water was just a few meters. Was almost as crap as diving in Finland.
Had one of the best dinners ever by the beach, sunset and great seafood! Lobster on the beach!
We tried to get these guys to play Lady Gaga or us but the didn't know it, had to settle with a good old Hotel California
Sunset
Evening view was niiiiice
On the way to with a cab we stopped for some special Bali coffee. It's called Coffee Luwak and is made by...an animal. The animal eats the coffee beans and then when it shits them out they make coffee out of it. Didn't taste any special but sure was pricy (about 5 euros)
After 2 days in Kuta we had enough and headed to Ubud. Ubud is more north than Kuta without beaches but much more chill! On the way to Ubud we stopped by Balis still active Vulcano which erupted 2001. There was a restaurant with this view and the buffet was great!
