    Bali trip - Day 2 (Plantations)

    After Volcano, we went to see the plantations.
    Coco, coffee beans, buah salak, rambutan trees and so on...
    It was located at mountainside, so the place is quite cooling...
    Drinking hot drinks in this type of weather, nice...

    All of us


    Antique kettle... My mom is still using this at home, but of course a cleaner one...


    How their 'roast' the coffee bean


    Again, I suspected this is another staff who was hired for the tourists to take photo...


    Me 'grinding' the coffee beans... (Sorry for the blur photo, the tour guide took it, I did not want to 'hurt' him by asking him to take one more)


    Coffee tasting session...
    All these drinks are free, they hope you will buy from them if u find them good... (And we were those "water fishes", cos we bought some)
    From top to bottom, Balinese coffee, coco drink, Ginseng coffee (chee sin, RP300,000.00 per packet of 30 sachet!!! Means RM100 per packet, Siow!), Lemon Grass drink, and Ginger tea.
    We bought some coffee powder, and order 2 extra cup of Bali special coffee (RM10 per cup)
