In Reply to: Cordial, Jayakarta and kids... posted by Cait on Monday, 14. March 2005 at 09:52 Bali Time:
Hi we got back yesterday from Bali and had 4 n in the club bali suites section of Jayakarta (4a and 3 kids under 9). We flew Aust airlines. Inflight was fantastic but packed mini gameboys as well. Good for when we went to restaurant too. Yes the Jayakarta has a courtesy bus that runs at regular intervals from Jayakarta to Kuta. The brekky is Ok. Eggs made to order, bacon, fried rice and pancakes and pastries. Coffee and OJ a little poor. Wouldn't bother with red cordial tho. Take antibacterial wipes and gel for hands. Be very disciplined with washing with these before every meal or snack and you should be fine. We ate 5 star and roadside and none of the 7 of us got Bali Belly. Say Hi to Wendy from Sarah when you go out the beach gates; she is part of the beach seller group out front. Oh and by the way Ricki does the best henna tatoo in this group, very detailed and around 20,000 rupiah. If you want a real treat go to Gado Gado for a 5 star beachfront, and the Jimbaran bay experience is a must, my 7 year old ate lobster like a king then made sand castles while we relaxed further.Have a ball.
