Monday 6th October

Today we had an excursion to the volcano Gunung Batur. The bus trip toke 30 minutes, it was very cosy because we sing Dutch and Balinese songs like ‘Het is stil aan de overkant’ and ‘’Bulan Bintang’.. When we arrive at the volcano we first went to lunch in a restaurant were you could eat so much as possible, everybody was surprised and toke a lot of food. After the lunch we had a beautiful sight on the volcano, also there are a lot of sellers with wooden statues, postal cards and sarongs. After visiting the volcano we went to the plantations, on this place farmers cultivate chocolate, coffee, tobacco and fruit. We had the opportunity to taste free the chocolate, coffee and tobacco, it was a very special (but nice) taste because the coffee was made from the shit of monkeys who had eat coffee beans. After visiting the plantations we went back to school and do some stuff on the computer like update the website, mail, chat and make an experiences report of this day. About 30 minutes later everybody went to home with the Balinese students on the scooters and motorcycles.
