I always need good comfortable shoes for walking distances and always take my trustee runners for such times.
This time I purchased a pair of homyped sandals to wear also, but they only lasted a couple of days after giving me blisters. I can't wear normal rubber thongs as I have problems with my ankles so we saw a Croc shop and my partner purchased me a pair of them.
Honestly .. I have never worn such comfortable shoes before. I ended up wearing these day and night and didn't end up wearing my runners once in the 2 weeks we were in Bali.
Needless to say, I purchased another pair before I went home because I hadn't seen them in Perth. Alas, they are everywhere now.
I thoroughly recommend anyone to buy Crocs. We got the "real" ones not the fake ones and purchased them from a shop in Discovery Centre for the same price as they are at home in Australia.
Money well spent !!
