The famous Uluwatu. Unfortunately, we didn't have the chance to surf it.

Our last day in Bali was spent repacking our already overstuffed bags and taking a motorscooter down the coast to check out the famed temple and surf breaks at Uluwatu. We ended up being so impressed with beach and caves at Uluwatu that we spent most of the day swimming in the warm water. By the time we made it back to our scooter the sun was hanging low in the sky and a temple visit was going to be brief. Unfortunately we found our scooter had a flat tire (bad motorscooter), and after a good ninety minutes and a twenty dollar repair bill (of course we got ripped off), our scooter was ready to scoot but we had no time left to view the sunset at the temple. Alas, we headed back to Kuta to grab some dinner and pick up our bags for the redeye to Perth Australia. All in all our time in Indonesia (Bali and Lombok) has been what we had hoped. The goal was to relax, so we spent a lot less time on the move, and we were able to surf some great breaks and learn a little more about this interesting part of world. If we come back to Bali, we will avoid Kuta and spend more time at some of the other destinations, such as Uluwatu, Medewi and the south of Lombok.
