Today we went on an island tour. We woke up and had breakfast at our hotel before meeting up with Aldo and Gabriela for a tour around Bali. We left at nine o'clock and headed for a Balinese dance show. The performance was very traditional with an unique storyline containing numerous characters. After the hour long show we headed to Goa Gajah Temple. It is commonly known as the "Elephant Temple." We were fitted with sarongs before exploring the grounds. We saw numerous baths before entering the cave temple. It was very dark, which made it difficult to see the two shrines within the cave. After leaving the temple, we headed for lunch. We went to a Balinese restaurant overlooking a volcano and a lake. The food was great, but the view was better. We then headed to our last stop of the day, the one we were most excited for: Bali's stacked rice terraces. We went to an overlook of the terraces and took a bunch of pictures. When we got back to the hotel, we jumped into the cool pool. We are now relaxing before going into Central Ubud for our last dinner in Bali. Tomorrow we have a two o'clock flight to Singapore!
