Last night i went to bed about 6:00pm right after dinner and then this morning i woke up about 7:00am Mum was already awake, she was sitting at the table studying some brochures. I walked over and saw the words Mount Batur on it which i guessed was the biggest mountain or something but turns out it was a volcano.
Mum said we were going to it today. To reach the volcano before the tour starts we needed to catch the travel bus that we would catch across the street. After dad woke up we had breakfast and got ready stopping at a food vendor to get some snacks we could take with us. Then we caught the travel bus at the bus stop across the road. The bus was new and clean, had curtains and was air conditioned. It was 9:15 am when we got on the bus and the ride would take about 1 and a half hours to reach the mountain.
I had a little sleep on the bus while we were driving the bus wasn't full but it wasn't empty there were about half of the seats filled with mostly Caucasian people who spoke English like us. Most of the people stayed on the bus until we reached Mount Batur and then we all climbed out looking at the massive volcano that stood in front of us. There was a massive lake surrounding the mountain and there were more people here lots of Balinese people and also Tourists. We looked for the tour guide but he didn't show for the entire day so we sat around and watched the mountain and saw lots of people offering to it. Others were venturing up the mountain by themselves but we decided if the guide didn't show than we wouldn't climb. We waited at the mountain for 4 hours and the guide didnt show at all so we caught the next bus home we climbed in. The clock in the bus read 2:30pm which meant we would get home about 4. I slept for most of the ride and when we got home I jumped in the pool while mum ordered our food because we only had cakes and other small foods for lunch and now we were starving. That night we all ate coconut chicken curry and it was delicious.
After dinner I watched some Indonesian tv and we all played cards for the rest of the night.
