kind of in Jitaluwih up in the uh the rice terraces want to come out here and get out of the southern part of bali and come explore this area there's a couple big lakes up here that i wanted to come see it's kind of unfortunate the place i'm staying at though it's kind of right here in the middle of the city it's uh super cheap though it was a hostel i'm the only one staying there i'll show you what that looks like later right across the street we got a big mosque here which i'm sure they'll be nice and quiet for me when i'm sleeping across the street at 4 30 in the morning when they want to do the prayer call i doubt it i doubt it what we're gonna do we're gonna walk down this street i saw on google maps there was a big park down here and yeah looks nice we're gonna go see if we can check it out before it closes let's see what this little city i already forgot the name of it of Jatiluwih okay all right thank you all right did you get that that's where we are today yeah okay let's get uh let's get on walking maybe if you see something tasty d we'll have some food how about that hello up in this area it's famous for the Jutiluwih rice fields but today it's nice and cloudy and foggy and so you can't see a damn thing even brought my drone because i was like i'm gonna put that thing up there and uh get some really cool drone shots for you but hey it's cloudy i don't have to do that for you wow look at this place is that a house if it is they're doing okay the nicest place i've seen up here this one looks really good too look at that suburbia right here i just want to come over here and get this little shot of these strawberries and bell peppers right here over this bridge wow look at that and then just check out that little american looking house over there house on the prairie and then you look and you see trash you see trash you see this beautiful rainforest you see the beautiful greenery and the plants and everything and then you what should be a beautiful clear river down there is just filled with trash is that a mercedes it has the mercedes hood ornament over there okay so we've made it to this park and uh let's see if we can get in thank you all right i didn't know this was like a closed park that you had to pay entry into i just saw it on the map and said hey let's go check it out okay this looks like a pretty massive place so it looks like they have some golf carts or some sort of shuttles maybe some bicycles or some scooters that we can rent to explore this place i don't know what i got myself into here but uh i think we need some wheels if let's have a seat you can no see y'all going no seat okay okay let's do that that's okay okay sure man this place is huge really big we're just out here writing them scooters and i kind of

these before it's going to be kind of hard good luck good luck okay i want to go up to like the middle roundabout up here we just kind of whizzed right by it for whatever reason and just have a closer look it's one of them another big hindu statue that i want to come have a closer look at they're all really cool i mean look at this magical place that we're at it's nice you know that probably was the most touristy thing i've done here in bali so far just kind of walked right into it i wanted to get some wheels to cruise around on and i guess i guess you can get a bicycle i didn't know that you can get a bike and you can go at your own pace but if you want to get one of them green electronic scooters then well you gotta get a tour guide and so uh you're not able to fully freely roam this place you just go from spot to spot you get off real quick okay let's take a picture take a picture nothing is really said about what you're looking at or where you're at so if you guys could kind of fill me in on maybe a little bit more context and the significance of some of these places that'd be cool but i mean some of this stuff is really cool check this out this this god over here with this bow and arrow hunting down this uh this elk or something over here look at that that's pretty cool yes they all wanna they all want a picture all right all right thank you guys lucky lucky all right good excellent all right so this is what i wanted to come check out the monkey one is just way down there and we just kind of zoomed by this one without actually stopping and getting getting a closer look but i want to come check it out this is just gnarly looking in it this i think it's maybe yeah maybe it's the same one it kind of has a monkey face but he's wrestling this big old eagle or falcon or something right here really cool okay yeah i was just sitting here kind of fixing my shoe and the guy comes up hey do you mind if i get a picture okay like they never seen a foreigner before but again like this place is cool isn't it it's uh it's really well manicured and maintained and super green in there i guess you could you know come here with your family there's a there's a lady over there having a little picnic with her with their children and her husband nice thank you yeah have a good day yeah wow and this looks like something right out of Biodome. any of yall remember that movie there's a lot of stuff in here that you don't see on that little scooter ride but this is something else isn't it look at that looks like an abandoned building doesn't it doesn't look like it's been used in a very long time it's pretty cool looking look at the front of that i would imagine because of corona this place is probably closed i can only guess i mean it is october 4th today 2021 so we're well into the pandemic by now and so wow look at this fruit tree what we got here looks like almost like peaches almost definitely not peaches but yeah let's see some of these trees have uh some name tags on them so maybe we can figure out what kind of fruit this is uh a melodinus orientalis bloom whatever that is i'm just uh looking miley hot smiley hot man just right outside the front over here you've got all these shops over here that i'm sure two years ago were awful this huge parking lot right here this place is made to to host many many people but there ain't no tourists anymore and the the group that i was with they're from java so you have a lot of people from jJava coming over right now but that's about it it's they say Bali is going to open up in october well this is october for uh tourists but uh i don't think that's happened yet but just look there's all these parasols all these shops right here that used to be open and now we just have a couple people out selling some things some strawberries and snacks let's see can i see what you have uh bubbles got bubbles i don't know if i need bubbles this is a snack some peanuts let's see and she's got fresh strawberries let's see here how much is the bubbles let's see if i get the tourist or the local price how much for bubbles 20 000 right. how much for the crackers? 5 000 okay maybe we can buy this and give it to uh a local kid on the way let's see here okay i'll try the uh Doraemon, pink Doraemon yeah okay thank you have a good day okay so we got our Doraemon bubbles let's make our way back to my hostel and i'll show you where i'm living for the next two nights it is uh it is classy let me just let me just put it that way perfect does she like bubbles? you are adorable thank you thank you thank you thank you you're welcome perfect all right let me show you where i'm staying for the next two nights this beautiful big abandoned looking building right here yeah found this place on booking.com the pictures obviously were from before the pandemic they have a restaurant over here on the first floor that's been closed thought it'd be open but yeah it's empty the tables are just waiting there for this pandemic to be over to be over we have the uh. which i'm guessing this was the warung
the entrance to my place is right over here you have the indomart, indonesia's convenience store okay so back there i have no idea what's back there not a clue this is what we're looking at nice lighting all right so i can lock the uh the little gate outside i can lock that door and then this right here, take my mask off, is how you get to the rooms and yeah this is uh this is it right here and i did notice from from the street these are tinted pretty good so you can't see in here actually nobody can see me but basically this is it i guess i'll be sleeping there they got one two three four five six seven eight eight beds in this mixed dormitory you know this was only on booking.com 200 000 for two nights which is about 15 bucks so you do the math this is the shower okay and the way the guy was explaining he was like this is your hot shower and this is your cold shower so i wonder which one i'll be taking got four sinks out here and my toilet so i don't know about this place uh we'll we'll stay here one night let's see here oh let me get my shoes on we'll go up to the roof okay just uh this is the rooftop axis you have this big pavilion over here oh maybe at one point they had a bunch of tables out here you could enjoy yourself relax maybe just come out here on this pavilion and just sit down she got the view of kind of the city over here kind of looking over this market right here that's pretty cool back in here that looks like there's some kind of bungalows maybe another guest house or something this is a market over there that uh we can go have a look at later well alrighty i think that's just about going to do it for today's video got me some coffee i'm all checked in and yeah i think i'm just going to sit here listening to this traffic get out in a little bit and eat dinner before it gets dark and then come back here and hunker down and see how tonight goes and then probably, I'm guessing find a new place for tomorrow because i came up here to be by the lake and i haven't seen it yet so let's uh we're going to go somewhere else tomorrow but for now thank you for watching and i'll see you in the next one peace
