Ubud Adventures, part 2

The day after our last Ubud Adventure, JP and I drove back up to Ubud to join Poliman and the trio of boys to see some waterfalls and rice terraces.

Poliman rented a car for this trip since it's 3 hours each way to see the waterfalls. We were grateful not to have to ride our motorbikes that far, but our prayers of gratitude quickly turned to prayers of safety as we realized that Poliman likes to drive on narrow, winding jungle roads like a rally car racer! Poor Dan and Ryan in the way back were getting a bit carsick.

It's a little blurry, but here's our happy crew in the car.

These waterfalls were UH-MAZING! Unfortunately, I left my camera in the car and only had my video camera with me. So these photos are a little grainy.

We were the only people at these waterfalls for about an hour. Then some locals showed up for "bathtime!" They stripped down and bathed right here at the base of this waterfall!!

Along the way to the waterfalls we passed this beautiful valley of rice terraces. So green and lush! It was amazing to see in person.
