We left NYC on a Monday evening and arrived in Bali Wednesday afternoon..we did not get over our jet lag until Sunday evening..here is what happened to us...we would get up at 7:00 A.M., eat, go touring, hang by the pool and then were so exhausted went up for a "nap" at 4:00 P.M. and ended up sleeping until say 1:00 in the morning..now we are wide awake ..then up for about 4 hours...this was our honeymoon and I'm very glad we had another week. We are in great physical shape and did all of the right things (i.e. drank tons of water, etc.). I would not suggest going alone and staying in Kuta...creepy and sleezy. Nusa Dua is fine. But again, wait until you have two weeks off..much more enjoyable. I think it's wonderful you are going solo (wherever you end up going)..why don't you go to Florence Italy for a week!! So amazing you won't want to come home.
