Yesterday morning, Asiong fetched me at 7 a.m. and we had rice porridge breakfast at Teuku Umar. Then we headed on to the north, way to the forests of Ubud. At first we made a stop at Tony Raka gallery, a place where Asiong made a lot of painter and artist friends. He was saying goodbye to a friend there, Ruth, who works at the gallery.

There was also an exhibition being held there, "Painting@Drawing". I love some of them, so I took pictures of them tho it was not allowed.








Then we went to Neka Museum, right in front of the old Nuri's. He took me on a trip around the museum and it felt like going on the Indonesian Art History class once again. From the classic Balinese painting to the modern foreigner painters, all were gathered in the museum. The ticket was IDR 50,000 per person.


We then had lunch at the famous Nasi Ayam Kedewatan Bu Mangku on the way home, then visited the Yamaha dealer for my bike about one hour later. I was so excited with my new bike, but I had to leave it at home because it still had no plate. Asiong took me to Warung Bunana nearby for a plate of Malaysian roti canai and teh tarik. It was so nice!
