BALI...AGAIN?!??!!!

I CAN'T HELP IT...I STILL LOVE BALI..Who wants to go there again with me? I'm sure Doris is the 1st one that will join me again. Canna, i know..we were talking about Krabi and a local trip..but i still wanna go to Bali..AGAIN. Things to do : SAVE MONEY, SAVE MORE MONEY, BONUS? SIGH!!

Continuation from my previous blog, i have only covered 1 day of my 8 days trip. There's so many things i want to share about my experience in Bali. I love everything about Bali- people, food, beach, sightseeing, shopping and more shopping. Not to forget the beautiful sunsets and scenery.

Day 2
1st destination : Taman Ayun Temple

Besakih Temple is the biggest temple in Bali, well...Taman Ayun is the 2nd largest in Bali, We are not allowed in the compound of the Temple, but we were to get a glimpse of the Temple around it. It was really hot that day tha ti had sunburn, so we didn't spend too much time there. We just want to make sure that we had enough time to visit the other places that we have planned to go on that day.


Entrance of Taman Ayu Temple. As usual la..the 'Beh Tahan Girls' is at it again!!


Inside the compound of Taman Ayun





2nd destination: Lake Beratan Temple and Alas Kedaton

The temple looks like it is build on a small compound or can i say 'island' on a lake. I feel is nothing special...but it is worth the visit since we were on the way to Alas Kedaton ... There's lots and lots of monkey lingering around at Alas Kedaton (Monkey forest ma..sure la lots of monkey la..hehe)..and they are friendly monkeys..not like those at Uluwatu. They snatch your hairpins, sunglasses, glasses, purses and things that they see is shiny. Scary.





Lake Beratan

I'm not sure what is this place called..shit... but i know we took a few good pictures here..hehe
It's definitely at Bedugul area..just don't remember the park's name. Sigh.







Peekaboo!!!

3rd destination: Tanah Lot
Tanah Lot is at its most beautiful is during sunset. Tours available in Tanah Lot is usually held towards the evening. When we went over, it was a low tide so we were able to go near the tanah lot. We went was towards the evening but we didn't stay for the sunset. We took loads of picture..definitely..hehe


The Magnificent Tanah Lot




Saw us at the background? Tanah Lot Sunset, remarkable isn't it?

Day 3

In the morning, we went shopping at Factory outlet store. You can buy surf wear and swimwear mainly brands of Roxy, Billabong and Quicksilver for a very low price. Out Tour guide Made said he will take us to a place not many people been before. We were not really keen with the idea but we just went along with it. He say that it will be a surprise for us. Im so glad that he took us there. We had a blast and we had a near tsunami experience, it doesn;t sound that bad. i didn't realise that my camera is on video mode and i manage to capture the whole event and hoo-haa on my cam. I called it my Ala Blair Witch Project Video AKA Tsunami Video. The place that we went was called water blow at Nusa Dua.

We were soaking wet after that incident...we were still so excited that we plan on the next few days to go back to the water blow again, this time better prepared. Bring some extra clothes lo..hehe..We ran and laugh so much..it is the most exciting place we have been to in Bali..Too bad the file is too large that i can't manage to upload it for you guys to enjoy.



We are all soak wet!!


Water Blow At Nusa Dua..

Later in the afternoon, we requested to our tour guide to bring us to the best local delicacy and must be economical. Guess what, he brought us to eat "Babi Guling". It consist all all the parts and organs of the pork, from it's skin to the meat. Yummy..a must try when you visit Bali.

GWK


After lunch we went straight to GWK (pronounced as Geweka). it is really nothing much there..mostly huge statues. Our last destination was to Uluwatu where we waitied till evening for the sunset and later to watch the Kecak Dance which is also known as the Fire Dance.


What a sight!!











The very next day we went on a shopping spree down Legian Street. Definitely we went to Hard Rock Cafe, where Doris and Samantha shop till they drop..i mean literally..haha. We also went over to Legian beach, rent 4 lazy chairs and we were sun-tanning. As you can see, the others were not tanned after 3 hours of laying under the sun. For me?? My god..i look like charcoal..my face..black black..and i have tanned line on my chest, my arms and my legs..ugly man...

To pamper ourselves more...we had our nails painted..only RM10 for both the hands and legs and also we had our hair braided..hehehe...how can we go the a beach area without being a hippie ourselves eh...We did pamper ourselves to the max..Spa and cigarrettes, Beer, Chips and of course Cup noodles..hehe..


We did had loads of fun and good memories..i wish i could go back to visit Bali in the near future..i miss having fun with Samantha, Doris and my cousin..Our next destination...Siam Reap Cambodia...here we come!!!!
