In Reply to: various questions for late may/june posted by Aly on Wednesday, 19. April 2006 at 18:24 Bali Time:
1. Have a couple of drinks through your flight, deep breathes and relax. When you arrive start your holiday with a good massage, go to the Waterbom Park for one of these massages, they are not expensive and most enjoyable..
2. You can rent a towel, but you do pay, or you can take your own, by taking your own, you can identify your sun chair etc.. easier..
3. There are drinking outlets that do have large screen TV. We saw several but I never kept tags for addresses, perhaps post that Q by itself..
4. Rate for driver, if you are doing a fair bit of driving then I'd say 300,000 to 350,000. If just to Tannah Lot or Sanur for the day as a drop off and wait round maybe a little less.
Ask him his price first, if it is within these prices it should be okay, we don't have to haggle with our driver anymore cause he is fair for all. He has a 10 seater bus which is just ideal for friends and shopping and luggage...
5. Does he live in a village? If so I would say rice.. Ask him what you should take, we asked our friend who has invited us to his village in August, and all they wanted was a laddle, so we are going
to Macro and buying a 20kg rice and taking like a hamper..
6. No thankyou - Tidak, Teri ma kasi said (tee dack terry ma casey)
7. Not sure on Bintang supermmarket, but there are other supermarkets.
8. Not sure about this hotel, sorry..
Cheers...have a great holiday...
