Selamat Tinggal Bali

Time flies when you are having a good time! It was almost 10am when we woke up...we quickly headed to the restaurant for breakfast. Can't believe they are serving BUFFET breakfast here! Instead of 2 slices of bread and just ONE portion of egg for the past few days, today we can feast on unlimited eggs, fried meehoon, fried rice, bread, fruits, etc. Free flow of juices, coffee, etc...

After our breakfast, we decided to head to the nearest departmental store MATAHARI to check if they sell nice t-shirts. Quite disappointing...nothing special here. Reputed to be the dept store chain with a pan Indonesian presence with four branches in Bali. Hmmmm. No comment. After a quick tour, we headed back to the hotel as we need to check-out by 12pm. Unlike Malaysia where hotels normally allow you to extend check-out time FOC, you will be charged in Bali. Not even one (1) hour extra. If you want to, you pay.

We left our bags at the security, and our flight back to KL was at 2015
- we still have PLENTY of time. We took a cab to KUTA Art Market, but again, was dissappointed. Most of the stores are selling clothes, didn't see much "art" here. Not satisfied, we took a cab to LEGIAN market...still, most of the stores are selling clothes. Sigh.

A glance at the watch...WOW...12pm already! We stumbled upon KFC and decided to give it a try! Both of us shared 2 pcs of Black-Pepper Chicken, and a waffle! YUMMY! It was NICE =)

Before heading off to the beach, we decided to stop at HARD ROCK CAFE store to purchase some souveniers. Managed to buy a shirt for myself RP 225,000, and my nephew's at RP 195,000....YAY!

Finally, we reached KUTA beach! No serious tide...but can see many people surfing, anyway. Except for the waves (which occur in the evening) - this place looked like any Malaysian beaches minus the many gwailos and surf boards...

While walking on the beach, we were trailed by endless locals trying to sell us umbrellas, caps, beach mats, tatoo, hair braiding, manicure, pedicure, etc, etc, etc. Pretty annoying...One lady kept following me and pestering me to do hair braiding...offering me at RP 200,000....I said "No".....kept trailing me....RP 150,000...again, said "Tidak mahu lah"...RP 100,000....I told her..."Laa..tak nak ler" but she just won't give up. In the end, I agreed to do it at RP 50,000...will see how I look like with braided hair.

It took them about 1/2 hour to complete the task...hubby watched how they do it, and told me that he learnt the art and can help me do it in when back in Malaysia! Errm, but wait...does it look nice? *ahem* I had to put on my sunglasses! Yikes, it makes my face oh so ROUND!! Unfortunately, what's done is done...$$ already paid, will take some pics and leave it on until I reach Malaysia la. At least show it to my mum & sis!!

We still have SO MUCH time left. We have done enough shopping already...we can't go swimming as we already check-out...OMG....we have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do anymore!

The weather was darn hot...finally, we decided to enjoy some air-conditioning and spotted a familiar place...PIZZA HUT. What a relief!! Bali is really HOT & HUMID. We ordered fruit juices and a small pizza to share (yeah, more food)...and most importantly..to kill time! Snapped some silly photos...tick tock tick tock....geez, still LOTZ of time.

Hmm...we can't be sitting here all day! Even the waitresses kept asking is we would like to reorder (although the restaurant was quite empty).
Ok, that's it. We decided to go back and hailed a cab back to our hotel.

The weather is really killing me...it was so so so hot! Tak boleh tahan ler...ended up at this restaurant again (just across our hotel). It was a nice restaurant...cooling.....Then, a brilliant idea struck me!! To kill time, we decided to write down and analyse our trip expenses...hehe...what a good idea!! OMG...Didn't realise that we bought so much things until we really WRITE it down!

Finally, time is up! We headed back to the hotel which is just across the street and hop on to the van provided by the hotel....to the airport! See, airport transfer is provided by FOC by the Hotel which would otherwise, cost us another RP 55,000!

Adios Bali! We will be back...the next time, will ensure our hotel is booked way in advance!
