Bali Day 3

A 3d2n trip ended in a blink of an eye
Its finally time to say goodbye

This was taken at the villa balcony
We tend to take picture at every corner of the villa only at the last day


The view outside my room
Me and Mike took the room upstairs while Joe and Carol got the room downstairs


Last minute chilling while waiting for the driver to come and pick us up
We were going for a nice body massage
Last minute souvenir shopping
And also last lunch before heading to the airport


Its finally time to leave the beautiful villa
We had fun though
Thanks Jason and Laura for having us at your villa
Hope to see you guys soon


Guy that occupy the front seat
Don't worry
I did not forget you

Babi guling or widely known as roasted pig is also very famous in Bali
And also their Bakso, means meatball soup
As a lover for pork, we must definitely try it before leaving this heaven


Last meal before leaving
This is just so heaven

We managed to get ourselves matching singlets during shopping earlier on


After massage
Shopping
Lunch
Its finally time to get to the airport


I like Starbucks so much
That I vow to try every Starbucks in the country I visit

Their Starbucks card is so cheap here



Its the end of the trip
Thank you everyone for everything

Bali Day 2

White Water Rafting is one of the must-do activity in Bali
The driver come and pick us up at 7am


No choice, the biggest one usually have to occupy the front seat
It took us about 1hr journey to the rafting site
This activity cost each of $50
The rafting is about 1hr and half
This also includes our lunch

Each raft can only carry 6 person
Since there is only 4 of us, so we were pair up with another 2 person


Since we have to raft from the top of water fall to the bottom
So we start with a little climbing first
The climbing journey took us about 20 to 30 minutes





We didn't manage to get much of the rafting picture
Cause we are all busy rafting


This was during the half-time

This was the after-rafting ones

This activity was much more worth than the water sports we have the other day
You definitely have to try this when you go Bali the next time

After the buffet dinner, we were brought to the monkey temple
The monkeys in the temple are set free and not caged
You can buy bananas to have them feed
Don't try to hide as they have very sensitive nose
Even if the bananas is in your bag



You can see almost all the monkeys are helping out each other to catch the flees in their body

The mummy monkey breast-feeding the baby monkey
Don't try to disturb their baby
You might end up losing a finger
These creatures have super sharp teeth



After the temple tour, we were brought by the driver to see their traditional dance 
It is called the Kecak Dance
I lost the picture describing the dance 
Must have accidentally deleted it

They use no instruments
Only with clapping and the sound from their mouth


Known as the White Monkey
The reason being I don't like to sit on the first row for any live performance




After that, the driver drove us back home
We thought of going for a body massage after a hectic day today
Cause people says massage is also super cheap in Bali
But we were too late and all the shops were almost closed
So we wrapped up the day and decided to go the next day


~~End of Day 2~~

Bali Day 1

For the first time since I start working in Tigerair
I used my staff travel so wisely
But still, I still regret that I did not get the standby ticket
The load was so little that we can even get 1 row each on the 1st sector

Yet, me and Mike achieved another relationship goals
It's our first overseas trip together!
We've been going to places quite often, but not as far as this
At least we don't have to drive for this trip cause we took the plane
Hahahahaha

My sleepy face
Couldn't sleep the night before
Too excited I guess + its an early check-in

Yeap...my bunch of travel companion
Can definitely travel with them cause they are as crazy as me
Maybe not as crazy as me but equally crazy
From left to right
Joe, Carol, Yoko, Me and Mike

Welcome to Tigerair TRxxxx
Forget the flight number cause its months ago
Sorry for being a tortoise

The flight time is approximately 2hrs20mins
Manage to catch some sleep on board

Thanks for the good service! 

We booked the whole villa from Airbnb
If you are always travelling and looking for something different than the normal 3 stars hotel you are staying, you should really try to take a look at their website
Not only the place the offer is in great deal, it is also spacious and the host is super friendly and nice
4 of us stayed in the villa and it only costs us $40 per night with a room each with queen-sized bed and personal bathroom and pool and kitchen and bla bla bla

Karma Villa


Its a double-storey villa
With a huge balcony where you can star-gazed at night
And a wonderful view

Laura and Jason is the host
Both pretty and handsome

The host provide us with a driver too
Cause this is how you travel in Bali
You either rent a bike and wander the way yourself
Or you booked a driver to drive you around
Our driver cost us IDR 600, 000 = $60
They drive you where you want to go, waits till you finish exploring then brings you to the next destination or brings you back home.

First thing to do after check-in to the villa is to fill our up our tummy
The driver brought us here
He says they serve the best pork rib in town



It's all about pork
Indonesian are not Muslim based
So they served really good pork
Forget what their names are but you can definitely give it a try

After that, we went for water sports
They say its cheap in Bali but not for me
I still thinks that it can be cheaper


We tried the Flying Fish, Doughnut Boat and Water Skii

The legendary Flying Fish

Doughnut Boat


Water Skii

This photo is really nice
Except for my super ugly look
Its okay, I'm willing to sacrificed 

Then...its dinner time again
Seafood is superb cheap in Bali
And its a must to try their seafood dinner by the beach

The driver drove us to Jimbaran
Alongside the beach, there is a lot of restaurant for you to choose from
We came just in time for the sunset view




We ordered crab, squid, stingray and clam
And all these cost us only $70, if I remembered it correctly

~~End of Day 1~~
