Thank you Hills, and you are right!
We have stayed at the Masa on NYE, and the beach road and Poppies 1 where vitually impassable by FOOT..let alone taxi.
Fortunately our driver Wayan Sunarta lives in gang Tropozone (directly opposite TZ), just down from the memorial, half way down to the Dewi Sri Hotel, so we might just get dropped off there and walk down gang Bedugal.
I have an old bald head mate who lives in some town houses down there and is expecting a delivery of a crate of Bintangs and he has invited me to drop in for a drink or two.
The other alternative is to get dropped some where in the vicinity of Bemo corner, walk down Jl Pantai, turn left past Made's Warung, walk past UN's to Poppies1 or continue past Mades Warung turn left down "dog crap lane" which brings you out opposite TJ' Mrs H will probably have to hose down the wheels on the trolly bag when we get the hotel:)
As for the divine Mrs H and the steriodal Gazelle...what about Mr H and a Transormers style demolition of motor bikes in Poppies1 :))
