The Tourist Information Bureau is across the street from the hotel, so we knew where to start -- or at least where to ask how to get there. We could take a bus ... probably cumbersome. Or, the man at the tourist information bureau suggested, we could get a Grab Car. Grab is like Uber, only better, in his opinion. They don't charge you more if the traffic is bad (uh, isn't it more fair to the driver to charge more if it takes longer to get there???)
Regardless, we let him call us a car, and that's how we met Robert. He used to have a small farm, but now he has a nice Toyota SUV. He was happy to take us to the Upside Down House and 3D Museum for 39 Ringet. It was about an hour away, so it seemed like a good deal.
When we got there, he asked how we will get back, and decided it was safer to wait for us. Then he asked the admissions lady if he could come with us, since he was our driver. Sure. This way please. Easy peasy.
The lady at the first stop gave us plastic bags to put our shoes in. There's carpeting inside. Uh, okay. Then she showed us how to hold our camera. At this point, I was totally confused.
Turns out the 3D Museum is a building with 28 paintings for people to insert themselves, and take a picture.
Here are some of our shots:
Then we moved on to the Upside Down House. No pictures were allowed in the house itself, but there were a few scenarios. Anita found some garden tools.
I was a little less comfortable than the guy on the bike. The planks weren't the same as they would have been in North America...
Robert was delightful. Not only did he do a fabulous job of taking photos of Anita and I, but he helped make our day special. It really was fun.
Sounds like a great day. :-)
