Bali Day 4 Part 2, Monkey Feeding and Strawberry Farm

The driver sent us for lunch after the "workout". The restaurant only offered buffet, which wasn't too bad. It cost about S$10 for adult, 50% discount for Lil Shauna and Lil Isaac was free!

The boy was super tired and took his nap right after lunch. Luckily he was free, he barely ate much. While waiting for the guide, we purchased a small box of strawberries from the street vendor for about S$2.50. Bcos the weather is cool at that altitude, there were quite some strawberry farms in that area. I was worried that they weren't clean properly but the temptation was too great and we finished the strawberries in 15 mins. Lol. I think we Asians could adapt better to Bali food and water and none of us had suffered the famous Bali Belly so far.

The real monkey forest is far away, the driver drove us to some nearby road to feed monkeys instead. Lil Isaac woke up but refused to get off the car. Lil Shauna was thrilled! She bought food from some vendor to feed the monkeys. The monkeys here appeared tamer than the ones we fed in Ho Chi Minh.

That little bit of food didn't last very long. The driver suggested either temple or coffee plantation next, which the kids weren't interested.  We eventually turned back and went to an organic strawberry farm to pick strawberries! It cost about S$7 per kg.

Of course the kids were thrilled. Lil Isaac doesn't take strawberry but loves to pluck them too. The kids were given strict orders to pick only the very red ones.


We managed to pluck 1kg of strawberries and we gave half to the driver. I don't think we could finish all.
We headed back to the hotel after the strawberry farm. It was another painful almost 2hr ride but we survived. We had another "guest" back in our hotel room.
The kids decided to have some fun with its eyes.
We had our 1st swim in the hotel pool in the late afternoon.


We had a dinner outside of the hotel and bedtime was easy that night.
