Chasing waterfalls in Ubud, Bali.
Hey steemers,
A really terrible song once told me to stick to the rivers and the streams that I am used to, but in the wise words of Kenny Powers I thought fuck that noise and went searching today.
Swimming under this guy was a therapeutic experience once the plastic instagram "models" decided to piss off back to their fancy villas
I think the water fall pictured above was called Tukad Penyampuan but I visited three today so I can't be entirely sure.
These three waterfalls are all in the same spot really but the one above is the largest I visited today.
The tropical plant life in Ubud is also breathtaking 😍
Heliconias growing wild in the jungle are an amazing sight
One of the smaller falls not far from the large one, also worth the extra steps
Thankfully the smaller falls had less instagram types around and I could just sit and take in the scenery...
This little rapid would have been fun to raft down but there were no rafts in sight
All of these spots are literally a half an hour scooter ride from my hostel... Even with a completely flat rear tyre (very scary on Indonesian roads haha.)
The calmer side of the rapid slide offered me some contemplation and mental adjustment
It's been one hell of a day steemers, now its beer o'clock at the white villa hostel in Ubud.
I will leave you with a pic of the pup here at the hostel, she is a heap of fun!!!
Peaceful Travels,
Sam.

Good on you for following Kenny Power's wisdom.. looks like a great spot! Hope you can find some more great spots that aren't littered with too many plastic "models" 🤣

Haha, It's the first of them I've seen this time as I am staying out of town. Grotesque formations

Thank you 😍
Looks wonderful and peaceful. Now you left me with an earworm :P
Haha, I'm not sure how that works but worms are good yeah?
Earworm is when an irritating song plays over and over in your head
Hahaha, what a horrible earworm to have too!!
