Indonesia -- Day 12 Aneka Lovina Hotel, Lovina, Bali


The Adventures Abroad itinerary for today was:
This morning we have an early boat trip to the reef where we hope to see the dolphins that frequent the area. Even if the dolphins don't show, the sunrise can be quite spectacular.

After breakfast back at the hotel, we head for the Gitgit Falls where a 15-minute walk takes us to a 60 m / 197 ft waterfall. We will also check out the spices and fruits at Lake Bratan market, making our way back toward Lovina with a visit at the Buddhist Monastery, Brahma Arama Vihara. It is a spectacular looking place, and a bit out of place in Hindu Bali. It is the most important Buddhist monastery in Bali and is complete with golden Buddha statues and a pristine natural setting. Strictly speaking the monastery is not a tourist site but accepts respectful visitors.

We return to Lovina late in the afternoon.

Overnight in Lovina. Meal plan: Breakfast and dinner.

Oh My WORD !!! Aren't these doors gorgeous??? There were several different designs that covered all the doors to each room.  Each door is the width of a regular door but split down the mirror.  Your "key" to the door is an actual lock.

All the doors are hand carved and then hand painted.  AMAZING !!!  I know all my ASCP friends will be drying to redo these in some way, or at the very least use them as great inspiration.
