I have been a reader of this forum for a year now and have been to Bali maybe ten times in the last 5 years with my girlfiend Miss R (not in the biblical sense,I like Men sometimes!) Just read Smudges post (WHAT A BLOKE) and feel I have to say HI to all the regulars, would like to chat and maybe meet up on our next visit which will be 3 Feb for 2 weeks staying at our favourite little Hotel in Legian,the Sinar Bali. where we have stayed about 5 times and have the staff in stitches most of the time we are there!!
They get in copious amounts of Tequila to make our afternoon Margueritas and go on their bikes to get us Babi Guling from the Warung for lunch when we are fed up with the poolside snacks! Of course we buy for them too, which is a big hardship at 5000Rph per person!!! We love the family atmosphere in this hotel and all our Balinese friends can come in and party with no hassle.The surrounding area is good for shopping. For those who dont know where it is, it is in Padma Utara between Melasti Beach Resort and Circle K headin towards Merrys Collection Tailor and Poco Loco.We dont normally eat Breakfast while we are on holidays mainly because we dont go to bed much before 4 in the morning, (strange behaviour for 2 girls in their forties who go to bed in Perth at 9 to get up for work next day!!) however we love to walk down to Legian Beach to LANAI CAFE which serves the best BL***Y breakfast I have ever tasted!! "Sunrise Special" 25000RPH is probably better than a morning glory if you know what I mean LOL!
Papaya with Mint or Fruit Salad (HUGE!)
Hash Brown (crispy) topped with 2 poached eggs and Parma ham and Hollandaise sauce (or if you feally extravagant for 5000RPH more you can have Smoked Salmon!)GOD LIFES HARD!!!
Beautiful Homemade Wholemeal Toast With Jam etc
Great Coffee
BEAUTIFUL TOILETS!!
Now you might be thinking, how are these girls doing this when they MAYBE have a big hangover?? WELL Girls, the added atraction is that you can sit there eating all this at your leisure while PERVING at long haired Balinese Beach Boys!! Seriously its great to sit and watch all the activity, kids playing. bikes going up and down, I love people watching, and of course you have the little darlings selling you the ironed papers and mags from the planes that you can try and MAKE SMILE!!
HEY TODAY WE HAVE BOOKED FOR AUGUST - Managed to book on FF for the fist time ever, 5/8 to 24/8 "SUPER!" Havn't even got the money together for Feb holiday yet??!! ABOUT TIME WE GREW UP AND ACTED OUR AGE INSTEAD OF OUR SHOE SIZE!!

Thanks
Rose (so beautiful like flower)!! My name is Ros but the Balinese always call me this so thats my name in Bali!!!
