From Part I, II, III and IV…

It was the last day for our Bali trip. To kick start the last day, everyone except me woke up at 6AM and went to the beach. You read it, freaking 6AM! By then, the sun has slightly rose and there were people strolling along the beach already.

We then checked out and proceeded to Kuta town to buy some souvenirs. I was looking for a traditional Balinese baju kebaya but most of the shops didn’t sell ready made. Even though its traditional, I find it quite beautiful and elegant. We also stopped at a shop called Joger or something like that. The shop even encourages you not to spend too much at their shop. I find their products very unique, especially the T-shirts, slogans and other stuffs. Worth checking out, really.

We then had our lunch at Bali for the last time before we left for the air port. Food here was good, I would say. I had a variation of our local nasi lemak, which came in a lot of side dishes such as potatoes, eggs, crackers, veges, fish, fried peanuts and etc. We had mutton satay, siew mai Malay style, a bowl of I-don’t-know-what that tasted funny and weird and lots of teh botol (bottled iced tea). We also had chendol with fermented gula melaka. Nice, but not my type.

It wasn’t long before we boarded our 2PM flight.

Bye bye, Bali!

My thoughts :

Bali is a nice place to have your holidays, as everything is slow paced and relaxing. With beautiful and splendid view of sunsets, sunrises, seas, mountains and greeneries, its a really nice island to explore. However, there are more than just sight seeings in Bali such as snorkeling, swimming at the beach, para-gliding, spa, massage and etc., but with only 3 days to spare in Bali, everything was kind of packed and rushed. I would suggest a 5D4N trip would be better as you get to really chill yourself.

Food wise, everything tasted sweet and might take sometime for your taste buds to get accustomed to it. It wasn’t a problem for me since I am willing to try anything, but for those who are picky eaters, perhaps fast food is a better and guaranteed choice. Not to mention, they are relatively cheaper too. I didn’t get to try their bebek bengil (dirty duck) and babi guling (roasted pork), which are quite famous in Bali.

I think I will go Bali, again. I don’t know when, but I want to go there again.
