Fibra Inn And Bungalows Bali

... a walk along the ridge on the other side of the hotel. The walk took us passed picturesque paddy fields and valleys filled with tropical trees and flowers. It must have been one of the most beautiful walks we have ever done, despite Carol perspiring and me sweating due to the heat and high humidity as the rainy season is due to start.

This area is a must for anyone travelling to Bali.

On the tuesday was the big day, the wedding day. We travelled over to an amazing posh hotel, so posh we didn't know if they would let us in. They did and after an expensive lunch at the hotel (costing 20 pounds) we were escorting to the chapel. Which was amazing all glass and over looking the se

Arrived safely, tired, hungry but clean from a shower at Hong Kong airport.
First night at hotel in Samur. Nice hotel but can't remember its name, room comfy and clean, quite posh. Picked up from airport by local guy who agreed to transport us to second hotel in Kuta. What we didn't know was that Kuta and Samur were equal distances from the airport! But hey ho, we are learning to map read!!
Febris hotel clean, basic and tidy ...

... were true. After chatting to various locals along the way, we were directed towards a/the beach which you actually had to pay to enter (we later found out that it was only WE had to pay to enter, the Balinese however didn't....even somewhere as friendly as this they will still take money from you if they can) but in truth it was worth every penny! It wasn't a beach as you imagine it in the traditional sense, the 'beach' part consisted of a tiny stretch of land surrounded ...

... in fact, to all onlookers, I'd swiped it with my life and belly flopped on the chair screaming "it's mine, its mine". Japanese man casually states - "ah goo play for faw-toe - hah sun do" This translates into english as "by jove old chap that is a jolly good place for taking a picture of this fine sunset - stiflingly hot sun though wouldn't you agree?". He's right - I bake in the sun for the next hour waiting for sun to go down ...

... worth the walk, especially if you feel like a night out in the Kuta craziness afterward. Yet another cheap place is the Warung Brasil Bali on Jl. Benesari which supplies current English papers free to read while you wait on your meal. They serve a wide variety of pizzas for 20,000 Rp and they take awhile to prepare, which gives you lots of time to catch up on the world's events from the Herald Tribune or Jakarta Post. I have written a majority of this journal ...

... 22). A good monkey, Hanoman, tried to save her but the bad guys trapped him in a ring of fire (#23). The good news is that the monkey escaped and the lovers were reunited for a happy ending. Our own evening also ended happily, with a candle-lit dinner on the sand, just a few metres from the surf, followed by a midnight flight away from Bali. This was such a perfect holiday, we feared that the rest of our sojourn home could not possibly compare. We will see.

... where he lived and where he went to school. The next day we took a train down to Pangandaran. Pangandaran is Java's premier beach resort destination on the south coast. In 2005 a Tsunami ravished the south coast of Java and left many homeless or dead. We stayed in Pangandaran for 3 days and the people were very friendly. In Java there are few travelers and white people are not that often seen. During my week in Java, I probably took 50 photos with ...

... his walls tastefully constructed of woven bamboo. The Englishwoman and I became mesmerized watching the man's wife cook dinner; first she fried up something that magically ballooned into rice crackers, then heated vegetables with a variety of spices she had earlier pounded with a mortar and pestle. She seemed to take little notice of the two foreigners fascinated by the activities she had probably been doing every ...
