Bali Oct 2011

Excitement, nothing about it before the trip. Till the hour we landed at the Denpasar airport. Our driver/tour guide Komang welcome us to Bali.

Once we reached Tune Hotel we leave our stuff and we went to Made's Warung for our first dinner. Overall it is not a cheap meal, mostly oil-free dish, the orange juice was really pure. We then walk around and get to have some rest.

By 3am we start our journey to Lovina to look for dolphin. We are full of excitement by watching dolphin and sun rise at first. But after sometimes we found that we are watching full of boat chasing altogether. Then we return, but we are being advice to see fish with joy by adding 50,000rp (FYI it will start with a high price and we don't found any interesting with the fish).

We also went to Gigit waterfalls. It is a very high hill. It need to pay entrance fees before arrive to the waterfall we will pass by lot of souvenir shop. The wind is very strong and is very cool and nice place.

We went to the famous Temple of Lake. To have some photo and found out that they are having some big ceremony in that temple. The weather was cloudy.

The next destination which is a MUST GO place. The Tanah Lot which is the temple in the middle of the sea. There is a holy water for us to drink.

We went to a souvenir shop to look for something. We bought some shirt to wear together. We then back to the town to go for our dinner at the itallianies restaurant which is nice food and environment is nice but the price is not cheap and the chair is terrible for me. My leg gone red might be too dirty. We also go for our body massage, after that all of us get cold.

The next day morning, we went to the Maliboro to have the famous fast food restaurant there. There is salty egg fried chicken, and some other special weird food but all of them are nice. We then continue our journey to Eithra Empul temple which is also a famous temple. We do get to understand some of their culture, whereby all the married woman will be preparing all the praying decoration and man will prepare all the food.

We then head to Kintamani, for our buffet lunch and have some photo faraway from the sleeping volcano. It is quite a windy place.

Arriving another destination which will be the Luwak Coffee. We see how they process, and we taste the Luwak coffee as well. But i don't really like it. Through understanding we know that is a cat's disposes (shit).

We then pass by a place which is the paddy field in terrace. It is quite a good feeling just that people at there selling item in a very scary way. We have been warn not to touch or bargain with those people who selling over there. If we ever touch or bargain we force to buy even though u don't want it.

At last we went to a place which everyone like that most which is Ubud. This place famous with heaven of souvenir. This is a place where you need to be expert in bargaining. To make sure what the price they offer we must bargain to half of the price they offer.

We then went to a restaurant to have "dirty duck" which we have ordered crispy duck and salty egg duck. The portion is small and we just grab few bites.

We then went to have spa for RP300,000 (as what i know we should have spa in Ubud for RP130,000). We get back to our hotel to place our thing and we went out again to the Legian Street which is for our night life. We have a little drink and enjoy there.

The last day morning, we do have a good breakfast which is local and quite suit our taste. It is totally like our "wan tan mee". Then we went to an area for water sport. All of us went to turtle island to see all the old ages turtle which is so heavy to carry.

We then went to have the famous "Babi Guling". It is actually like using the whole pig to make some dishes. It is quite nice also.

Then we went to blue eye point which is a place from high hill down to the beach which have those European swimming around there. It is a nice place to swim but is so tire for us to go all the way down and all the way back to the top hill.

Before we get to Uluwatu we pass by a beach called Nyiang Nyiang beach. We went in to the resort and take some photo as the resort was a very expensive resort according to the tour guide. Before the resort bankrupt a night we need to spend around RP2.5mil.

As we reach Uluwatu, we went to have some coconut drink. We do really found out that actually at this kind of small stall even an ice cream, we still need to bargain. Because the price that they offered for a "Drumstick" ice cream need RM 15+. It really not making sense.

As we get in there, we need to be very cautious with those monkey because the monkey there will steal our belongings such as slippers, bag, camera, specs, and others. Then we will need to pay those local people to get back our belongings. At this place make one of our friend cried and we leave as soon as possible.

We then reach Jimbaran for our seafood dinner. This is a famous place for sunset with dinner. It is really romantic place. This is how we ended our journey in Bali.

We start our journey with sunrise and we end our journey with sunset. This is just like our life.
