Lake, Tanah Lot, and getting sick

On the 3rd day we went to a local restaurant somewhere between the city in Bali, and we had lunch with what I thought was a tasty meal. I soon found out the price later that night and the next. More about that in a bit. First, we stopped at a place high in the mountains somewhere, where they have a lake. We weren’t exactly by the lake, but far enough to see the entire of it and its surrounding. We didn’t stay that long there though since it started to rain, and because of the altitude it was actually cold.

Then we went to a place called Tanah Lot. This is located in Uluwatu, the southern tip of Bali. From here, they have a temple overlooking the ocean. This place is primarily famous for the sunset. That was what we were there for. It was breathtaking. There was a sense of spiritual calmness having seeing this picturesque event of a sunset on an ancient temple ground. This was just about the best tourist place I’ve seen so far in Bali.

After dinner, I found out that I started to have this weird, queasy feeling in my stomach. I mentioned earlier, the restaurant that served the succulent pork had served to not just humans, but also flies. There weren’t a swarm of them, but I guess enough to hit 1 person out of 15. There were 15 of us, and I was that “1” person. So since lunch, I started to feel sick. It wasn’t as drastic yet, as it feels as if I have an upset stomach that seems to be going away. I had hoped that it would stay away. But I would find it to not be the case.
