Ulu Watu

---

Dear friends,

a couple of weeks ago I had a nice afternoon around the Ulu Watu temple, amazing views! It's on the peninsula south of Bali. The temple territory is crowded with monkeys, who are waiting to steal something from you. We had to take off our sunglasses, all jewelery and anything that could be ripped off. We saw a couple of Japanese tourists staying without sunglasses... Most of the times, if there is a guide, he throws peanuts or bananas at the monkey and he releases the belonging. Right after we thought we have survived, we exited the temple territory and Koen took our sunglasses out of his pockets. Half a second, and monkey was away with his glasses! Lady from a shop nearby threw peanuts at the monkey just like she probably did with 10000000 tourists before, and after chewing the glasses for a moment, monkey released them. I am pretty sure there is a cooperation - monkey steals the glasses-> he gets peanuts->lady gets money from tourists. Everyone is happy!.... 😉

Enjoy the sunny pictures!!!!


Kisses,
Ilze
