This morning I was bored and wrestles and suggested we all
go for a day trip to Tegenungan waterfall in Gianyar. To my surprise, no one
had ever been there before even though it was so close to Klungkung.
Everyone was keen to go and take a look, so we decided to
head off after lunch. With the car packed with seven people we headed off for
the short forty-minute drive through the country side.
I love the Balinese architecture
How's this for a load
This kids got her own seat
Ten years ago, this place was unheard of, but recently it
has been heavily marketed as a tourist destination with lots of restaurants and
accommodation springing up.
The waterfall and surrounds were very spectacular but the
hundreds of vain tourists talking selfies of themselves was annoying. The surrounding
gardens and construction architecture was spectacular in typical Balinese fashion.
After spending an hour or so climbing down to the waterfall
and exploring the area, we climbed back up and found a nice restaurant with a
lovely view overlooking the falls and were lucky enough to get a nice secluded
private area to chill out for the afternoon.
I much prefer the western swim suit
We ordered drinks and food and I spent the next two hours in
the beautiful three teared pool set in the tropical gardens, having it all to
myself.
It really was a nice place to chill out for the afternoon
and was just what I needed before the early morning flight back to Australia.
