Visitng Bali - Day 01
I wish this BALI entry will be successful. Cos my past NZ travel log was a failure. Haha..
DATE: 13-4-07
DESTINATION ROUTE: MIRI - KL - DENPASAR (BALI)
Yeah, our flight from Miri to KL is 10.50 am. Thanks to our driver (ah long), we were there on time.
The trip consider smooth, cos the flight arrive on time without any delay. There’s not much hassle. Just GO GO GO!
Its very fortunate also, we flew to KL on the 3000th BOEING. cool? Or maybe many of u had already fly with it before.
Its fun to travel with your friends, especially your best friend, some more with my dearest bf. I think i’m the happiest person at that moment. 
We need to take 2 time of flight. So the 1st flight we fly to KL. We sat at the emergency exit. And this is the first time we experiencing the stewardess just standing beside us doing safety demo. Haha.. and we manage to capture the picture of her too !! >.<
The flight arrive KL at 12 stg, but our connecting flight to BALI will be 4 hours ahead. So, yen suggest to go KLIA instead of staying at LCCT..
LCCT is really crowded. Although its LOW COST, but at least all the facilities it has. Except, not enough nice food. Haha..
We took bus to KLIA just for lunch, and returned to LCCT. Timing very good, we are just in time to check in at the international side.
I’m using my NEW PASSPORT, YEAH, FIRST oversea travel for this year. Hehe.. and even at the Immigration checking , my passport chips cannot be read! ADUH…I never have this difficulties w my old passport ler! So checked manually lo…AND yes, we are OFF TO BALI!
Flight to BALI takes 3 hours. Inside the plane, we just couldn’t fall asleep. Sigh, so we chit chat , from A to Z. Tak sabar sabar, we want to have fun..
After 3 hours, we arrived BALI. Ngurah Rai International Airport. For my surprise, its kinda old, just a bit like my MIRI old airport, but bigger of cos. The arriving hall is so dark.. Hmm.. if i go there alone, i might feel FEAR.. Bah.. From the airport we can see various of visitors from different countries. U wouldn’t think of u are at INDONESIA when u see so many ANGMOHs around.
We were picked by the local tour guide that we have booked in MIRI. While waiting for other members of the group, i capture around the airport. CURIOSITY. and we saw a lady ,wearing BALI costumes, welcoming guest. YEN ask me to take a picture w her. She nodded ok, but who knows the picture come out like "SAI". "shit". so i ignore, cos she is so "pretty".. but who knows, when she see the Angmohs coming, her face totally change. SO REALISTIC! Grrrr… my head also very yellow mah, cant she treat me as Angmoh meh???? not fair~
Our tour package not bad also. We had a welcoming dinner @ this SANTI CAFE @ JIMBARAN.
Its at the BEACH. Again to my surprise, we had OUTDOOR dinner, its up on the BEACH. Under the desk is SAND. The whole beach is full of restaurant. Its TOURIST heaven! Full of tourist. I think the local people wont go to such place had dinner. Don’t u think so?
The food was ok, a bit spicy, but i like. It served by one person, one portion. If our chinese food, normally we share a big plate. The rice are served in a basket. While we eat, there will be a group of live singer come across to your table and start singing. Wah.. we tot they can only sing malay and english songs.. but i am wrong, they can sing chinese song as well. "yue liang dai biao wo de xin" . So , we give them tips. RM 5. So generous le… tats because we are stupid lar! Give rp 2000 tats more than enough liao lo!
Finally we were checked in to our hotel, and that’s INNA KUTA BEACH hotel. Its just infront of HARD ROCK hotel, and its very near to KUTA street. After we have put our things, we quickly start exploring KUTA street.
BALI is really a tourist paradise. Even at the street, u can see so many tourist. And for me, it seems like the local people occupation are mostly related to tourism. I think the financial of BALI 70% comes from tourism, and 30% from furniture wood carving.
All along the street, we see a lot of branded shop tat i only ever seen in advertisement or heard of the name. There are VERSACE outlets.etc.. And its surfers paradise as well. There are many shops selling surfers thingy. And their design are cute. Too bad i dunno how to swim, wats more how to surf?
After a day sitting inside aeroplane, from MIRI to BALI. Its really tiring.Its time to rest. We see a lot of things that is NEW. Maybe i’m a bit "outdate"… but i know the next day going to be more fun!~
