I'm back from Bali!!! I was very tired... been sleeping past 12, and waking up at 7... zzzz....
Stayed in the hardrock hotel there. Every night there's this live band up there playing... weeeeheee.... there were so many electric guitars in the hotel in every corner... and the pool was "WOW!"... the room was satisfying... =D
Sunday... We fit all the visitings into this day. We went to quite a few places. There was this place where they made silver. The jewelleries there were nice... wanted to buy one for a certain someone, but... only if they were cheaper... hehe... I'm a poor kid... Then, we dropped by at some wood carving place.. nothing there... Erm... There was this place where a family lived... THERE WERE PORCUPINES AND CHICKENS!!!!! (well... more exclamation for the porcupines)
Hmm... We went to a high peak overlooking a volcano... active, but no erruption that day. Had lunch there, then went back down... Saw paddy fields, became a farmer for a few seconds >.< and WOOT! the thing they held was really really heavy... After that... we went to "the olden king's palace" to have a look and went shopping about there. After that few hours there, we traveled to have a look at the 'dance of the barong' telling the tale of ramayana. Heard it before? It's in sejarah and bm sastera... haha... But it was different. The tale was told with a few dozens of men kecak-ing all the way as the "actors" were performing on the stage. What's kecak-ing? Imagine men sit in lines surrounding on the stage, surrounding a torch (something like that), and mumbling kecak group by group, continuously for the whole show that lasted an hour or so... hahah... then there was a young girl dance and a person walking on fire... (that guy's on trance by the way)
That night we had meal at Jimbaran. The meal was on the beach. It was dark out in the sea... Meal was fine, not that good, but fine nevertheless. That night we went back and had a sit at the cafe, where the band played. After awhile, we left for sleep.
Monday... nothing much to say about this day. Father went working. The rest of us went shopping around Kuta area. It was HOT!!!! Slowly slowly... we walked till 4 o'clock. By the way!!! I met with Sin Yee while walking down some street. >.< Then, we had a rest at the hotel room, till around 6 o'clock. Father came back and we went to the beach for the sunset. It was a nice scenary but it is quite swift. That night we had french dinner. And the dinner is a million Rps... Such alarming numbers...
Well, we left the next day, and that's it for Bali... It was quite short... sigh...
