  • My Annual Trip to Bali 17 July 2014 - 20 July 2014 (Day 1)

    All right then!!!~ I am back from my short trip to Bali. This time was slightly different (with the travel partner), let me introduce you to Stepheny!

    So it's her first time to Bali, so I might elaborate more this blog compare to the previous ones, as the experience is still vivid in my mind. HAHAHA!

    We decided to leave home a little bit early this time to check out the new airport KLIA 2. Took an Aerobus from Paradigm Mall straight to KLIA 2, and it only cost me RM10!!! ^_^ How cheap is that? Well, if I am comparing to KL Central or driving there myself. But thanks, Edwin for the ride to Paradigm Mall.

    And guess what is the stupidest thing we did?? We checked-in and there isn't any shop inside the boarding gate. T___T *sigh*

    Yeapz, so we ended up walking and hang out at Gloria Jean's Coffee until the boarding time.

    I'm glad my phone battery last me until then as I keep on browsing through instagram pictures. Ooooh well, when the time comes, we board the plane and off we go!!!

    DAY 1 : The Arrival

    Nothing beats a warm welcome at the NguRai Airport!! ^^ The queue at the immigration was pretty long, but luckily i didn't wait long until they open a counter for ASEAN Countries. *weeeee*

    Someone from the hotel picked us up and we head straight back to hotel to check-in. And this time I'm staying back at the hotel I first stayed on my first trip to Bali, J Boutique Hotel. Got a cheap rates through groupon and it's all worth it!

    A nice welcome drink to quench my thirst after all the sleep and chit chats. Taste of pineapples and lime.

    We gotten a free upgrade to an executive room, which I presume is slightly bigger than the deluxe one (or it's just an extra chair). So, no complain for that.

    Yes, the world problem (or maybe when you are in Bali) - What is the WiFi's password?

    Then, it's time to explore the town and to look for dinner place!! We ended up in Bamboo bar & Grill for a nice dinner with some live band.

    Another welcome drink from the bartender, Mango, lemon and vodka! *love it*

    And the bartenders are trying to be cheesy by giving us a rose ring, made from straws. I think it's the "in" things there, as I have been seeing lotsa bartender doing so for their customers.

    Virgin Colada, Virgin Mojitos, Mahi Mahi Fillet and a Grilled Red Snapper. All this costs us RPH462,000 (which almost equivalent to RM160). Pricey for the first night but the food is absolutely good! Well, hey, if not they wouldn't be rank in TripAdvisor.

    After dinner, we head to Sky Garden, the hippiest club to be in Kuta, where there are 5 rooms with assorted kinda musics of your choice.

    Entrance fees of RPH100,000 (almost equivalent to RM35) and with (your choice, but I choose) 2 bottles of Smirnoff Vodka Ice! *blah blah blah* The rooftop is still the best, but it's super hot and humid. Low blood pressure attack, as I haven't been drinking much lately, and we head back to hotel early (1am ish). =( And so, we called it the night.

    All right peepz! Stay tune for Day 2 - 4, in my next entries. Sorry I have to split the entry because it's already 12.40am and I need to go to work tomorrow. Hey, I don't travel for my living (though I would really wish for it *cross-fingers*). Good nights, peepz!
    Luv,
