For the last day, we decided to take it slow and simply spend our day just chillaxing at the beach.
We slept till it was really late, and slowly made our way to this nice little diners for our breakfast -
Warung Totemo. We slowly had our breakfast and people watch for a while. We came to realised that there were alot of aussies there, and everyone seems to get around on a bike. This kinda reminded me of Macau.
When we got to the beach, there were alot of people and makeshift drink stall owners. They were the ones responsible for the sun chairs as well. Do beware and remember to check for their pricing before taking up their offers. Some had drinks and shade for a certain price. While some of them have separate cost.
We walked the entire stretch to see where the main crowd was at, and finally decided on an offer of 50 rupee for 2 chairs for the entire afternoon. We just flopped ourselves down to enjoy the sun, sea, waves and wind.. This is life..
After a while, it got really hot. We spotted a couple near us who had just
jumped into the sea and tried to ride the surfs. My gf and I decided to try it out as well. For those who are really interested in surfing, there are people along the beach that offer to teach you how to surf for about 150 rupee for 2 hours. However, I wasn't very keen on exerting myself (after the Mt Batur climb), I just decided to just jump into the sea and ride the surfs. It was still pretty fun that way.
Soon, we got hungry, and decided to head off to find snacks. We stumble upon this fun place - Flapjaks, that served awesome ice cream and pancakes. It was sinful indulgence. Next, we headed off to the Legian region to check out their shops, and to see what we can buy. Unfortunately, the weather didn't look too promising and started to drizzle, we then decided to head back to the hotel.
As we had promised ourselves that we will be checking out the night life, we decided to dress up and head out for a nice dinner. We found this place - Maccaroni. The ambience was nice and it was in the middle of the
partying district. The food was awesome too.
Previously, I had checked out
TheJetsetter's
blog on their trip to Kuta. It turned out that the place they went to for drinks, Sky Garden, was just opposite from Maccaroni. We decided to head over and see if the Sky Garden was still having any free drinks. It seems like we were in luck, they were having free drinks for all ladies from 9pm to 10pm.
Since we had an early dinner, we decided to go for a pampering session - massage and manicure, before going over to party. However, after pampering ourselves, the effect of dinner took over and we were too exhausted to even walk back to Sky Garden. We decided headed back to the hotel for our beauty rest.
It was then that it dawn on me that I was getting old - no longer do I have the stamina to party the way I used to. Nevertheless, it was a fun and chillax trip for the both of us. We sure had a fun time exploring Mt Batur, coffee tasting and checking out the surfs on Kuta beach. I really can't wait for my next trip to Bali.
