ok new at this although ive been reading for couple of years
wife O and i on 8th trip possibly last as im M.S afflicted.
tuff for me, ok there will be no high teas, pearls or fancy hotel referances and if i spell something wrong tuff titties.
ok flight from melb with j* full but ontime.figured late start would be better than staying overnight in melb as we over 200k away.
as usual easy passage throu. customs and immigration,we been so lucky.
this time we didnt arrange transport as i new where we going was easy to get too,our usual haunt is hard to convince taxi's to go to.
Btch n o.1 I dont get why the touts want 4 times the taxi rate from the same rank 250k is b/rediculious from window that clearly says 60000k was happy to pay 100 and that was tip for taxi,m/bee it just me?so 1130 pm arr. at BW kuta beach, is nice new hotel.
B no.2
we book deluxe room instead of standard....is same size as formula 1 hotel's on east coast of melb.so we upgrade room slightly larger but smaller bed to look bigger, but hey we only staying 5 nights live and learn(ok time to p/off half the forum) ive stayed at well known townhouses not allowed to mention here could have had large 2 bed room for same money and no chance of international interaction.
ive heard it said that aussies there are noisy and they can be but i got 20 roosters going at it from 5 am till dusk lol
i asked local how you say rooster soup in balinese.
ate at usual great (read cheap)places T.J's love their chilli con carne. gong corner the bbq snapper $3.50 and great
blue ocean wife loves their bitten ballen and good nasi. g
tomorrow we off to sanur , never stayed there lookin forward to it.
ex. rate 9950-1065 and very few schoolies to speak of.
im guessing when we get back after sanur things will be different.
