Lovina

Lovina is a really nice place. It reminds me a bit of Palolem in Goa, India, but with not as many tourists. It's a very relaxed place. Only when you walk on the beach all the sellers come to you to try to convince you to buy sarongs, fruit, necklaces, handmade books and other stuff. In the beginning they are a bit annoying, but now they go away quite fast. The sunsets at night are very nice with the view of the Merapi (I think it's not the one near Yogyakarta, that erupted recently, but the one in the east) in Java about 100km away.
We met an English guy, called Martin, who owns several horses in the mountains close to Lovina. He has the horses so disabled children can ride them. But yesterday morning we also made a short trip with the horses on his land between the banana trees.
This morning we got up at 5.30hrs to go for a dolphin boat trip at sunrise. It was very nice. I did a similar boat trip in Palolem in India last year, but this one here in Lovina was much better. There were so many dolphins and they even jumped out of the water...
