Salutations! I'm back from my holiday in Bali. Miss me? Haha! I'm sure you guys want to know what's happening there. Well, let me summarise what I did there with my family.

Well, basically Bali is also called an Island of thousand temples. 90% of the locals are Hindu and their belief and practice towards Hinduism is really strong. Almost everywhere you go, you can see offerings made by the streets, their houses, shops and etc. Temples here and there. They also held many praying ceremony almost every month.

Bali, also a place for most shopholic. Crocs, Quiksilver, Roxy, Volcom, Billabong. You name it, they got it. Prices are always on discount there.

Bali is an awesome place for adventurous people. All those water sports activities such as parasailing, jet ski, white water rafting and many more just make you go wohoo! Haha. Nice place to go surfing with those big waves at the beaches.

Also a place for couples retreat. The beautiful sceneric view at the inactive volcanic area just makes you relax and free your mind from everything. Accompanying you with the Sundanese Bali ethnic music, you'll just have a peace of mind there.

Enough of introduction.

Day1.

Reached Singapore International Airport Terminal 1, 2 hours before flight to check in and walk around in airport. Booked AirAsia as our flight transportation. Depart around 4.35pm. Journey took around 2 hrs and 30 mins. Landed at Ngurah Rai Bali Denpasar Airport in the evening. There's no time difference between Singapore and Bali as we are located on the same longtitude. Upon reaching the Airport, had some trouble searching for our tour guide. So we head down to the information counter and call him from there. After the long wait, Pak Patra our tour guide and Pak Sandra found us. He led us to our vehicle and we make way to a local restraunt, Malioboro, for our dinner. After which, we head down to our hotel to check in at Wina Hoilday Villa Hotel. Hotel is located near Kuta Beach. My first impression about Bali. Lepak relaxing place! Haha! It's like kampung type area.

Day2

Woke up early in the morning foor breakfast in hotel. Breakfast food is not that satisfying however I did eat a lot as I was feeling hungry. Luckily the hotel served halal food for us. Thankful for that. So after breakfast, at around 8am. Pak Patra invited us from hotel to start our 1 day tour to Mount Batur, an inactive volcano area surrounded by a beautiful lake. Journey took about 2 hours plus from our hotel loaction to the Mountainic areas. Along the way, the scenery in Bali is just undescridable by words. Padi fields, mountains and terrains. Kampung house and acient temples. It's just too beautiful to be real. We reached Mount Batur at noon and we had our lunch there at Lakeview Hotel, beside the inactive volcano. Nice cool breezy wind blowing against our face. Again, it's just too good to be true. After lunch, we make our way to Batik Making site, Coffee Plantation, Arts Market and lastly to the oldest and ancient Temple or Pura in Bali. We ended our whole tour in the early evening and decided to go for our first shopping. Located at the heart of the capital, Kuta Square offers you a lot of wonderful things to bring home with you. Shop till late evening and we had dinner at Pizza Hut.

Day3

After morning breakfast at hotel. Pak Patra again invited us from hotel for our day tour. This time, water sports activity! Located at Nusa Dua Beach. We went there and did our fun water sports activity. Tried the Jet Ski. Our whole family ride on the banana boat, sis and dad ride on the flying fish. We then ride on a glass bottom boat to view the corals, fish as well as reef in the middle of the sea. The boat then lead us to turtle island and of course there's turtle in that island. After the fun time. We proceed to Tanah Lot. A floating temple in the sea. Again, I tell you, words just can't describe how beautiful the scenery that I see for myself. It's just too good to be real and true. The temple located in the middle of the see. Surrounded by huge beautiful waves crashing down on the rocks around the temple. Creation from God, it's just so amazingly great and beautiful. Explored Tanah Lot and then we head down to Kuta Square again to shop around. Shop till dinner time. Had our dinner at Macdonalds and then rest in the hotel.

Day4

Today, we have our free and easy time. All day shopping. No tour. So we shop like nobody businness. Buy this buy that. Visited the Kuta Beach in the late afternoon. Lepak there with my family then went back hotel. We had a swim at the hotel swimming pool in the early evening. Place is wonderful.

Day 5

Home sweet home.

Depart at 1.35pm from Bali to Singapore.
