Trip to Bali

Personal, Travel April 15th, 2008

On the last company outing, we went to Bali for 3 days and 2 nights. Of course if you visit Bali, you have to visit its most famous beach, which is Kuta beach. I stayed at Hard Rock hotel, which location is right in front of Kuta. And could you imagine, I only set my foot on that beach for only 5 minutes, just enough time to take my picture there beside a surfing board *hahaha* Yes, I’m not an avid fan of the beach ^^;;

On the first day, we went to Ubud, and ate fried duck at Bebek Bengil. The food was delicious, but the atmosphere there is the main attraction. The setting is very natural and you could even see the paddy field on the back of the restaurant. We also went to Erlangga market. In the evening, we went to Tanah Lot to watch sunset. Simply beautiful.

Second day, we went to Sukowati market, and buy many kinds of handcrafted things like bags. I bought 4 handbags for my mother and sisters, but I bought nothing for myself ^^;; Then we ate at Angsa Dua restaurant *I’m not sure about the name though*. The food was so so and the worst thing is the toilet :( Beside the taste of the foods, clean toilet is my second factor in determining how great a restaurant is. It’s a must. How could a visitor trust the hygienic of your food if your toilet is dirty. We also went to The Uluwatu Temple, on the top of a very steep cliff. You could see the big wave crashing on the cliff. I was pretty scared actually ^^;; But the view is breathtaking. I heard that the native perform Kecak Dance in the evening, and it must be great to watch.

Oh the third day, we only have half day left because our plane will take off at 2 pm. So we took this opportunity to buy some gifts and snacks to be brought home. I buy 1.5kg of peanuts, named Kacang cap Mentari. My first bite of this peanuts, I regret that I only buy it a little. I should have bought 5 kg! This peanut is so delicious I tell you. I bought it at Toko Tulus. If I went to Bali again, I would definitely buy it. If you happen to know that this peanut is sold at Jakarta, please let me know. I think I’ve already addicted to it ^^

Now June is coming closer. I wonder where we will go on this year outing. I’m hoping the best of it ;-)
