Bali Day 4 - Part 2

Selesai di Nusa Dua, we were sent to the airport to catch 8.35pm flight. Lepas check in, imigration and bayar airport tax terus ke departure hall. Tunggu punya tgu air asia announced the flight will be delayed to 9.45pm. We all ok lagi. Still waiting and air asia make 2nd announcement that flight will be delayed until further notice. Punya la dahaga tuhan saja yang tau. Dah la air langsung tak boleh bawak masuk, flight pulak delayed. Ingat nak makan kat atas flight, tp dah jadik gini nak buat camne. Pastu dalam jam 10.40pm sekali lagi air asia announced yang flight to kl akan depart about an hour time. So sape2 yang dahaga sangat and nak makan boleh keluar. Orang kata malang tak berbau dah la flight delayed, last2 kena cancelled terus. Apalagi kecoh!. While waiting for air asia to settle on imigration, airport tax, luggage return, re-booking ticket and hotel transfer, we ended dok kat airport sampai lebih kurang jam 3.00am. Letih betul.

Sabar menunggu

Bali Day 4 - Part 1

Tentatively, we don't have any scheduled xtvt on the last day. Its on our own leisure until check out time at 12 noon and our tour guide will fetch us at 3pm for complimentary Uluwatu tour and then straight away to the airport. Since for the past 3 days we dont have time to shop, we had requested our tour gide to bring us to Pasar Sukawati for last minutes shopping. For that we have to pay Rp.500,00.00 for 1/2 day tour i.e. about 5 hours.

Before we left the hotel

Sampai di Pasar Sukawati and without any delay we all terus bershopping. Our tour guide gave us 3 hours to shop. Memang tak hengat sampai gambar pun satu keping tak ambik. Bila dah siap and on the way keluar from the place baru perasan. Tapi dah tak kuasa nak bergambar coz cuaca panas. Overall pasar ni kira ok sket la coz dalam bangunan. Panas2 pun ada gak tampat berteduh. After that we all mintak the driver bawak lunch kat Wong Solo. Alhamdulillah our lunch on the last day ni sedap.

Our food - Lele, Bebek, Ayam, Tempe Penyet, Sambal Udang Petai and Sup Buntut

Since hari terlalu panas we all mintak cancel tour ke Uluwatu and the driver agreed to bring us to Nusa Dua Beach. I like this place coz all hotels ada its own private beach. Maybe kalau nak gi Bali lagi I will consider staying at one of the hotel there. What a heaven!

Bali Day 3

We started our day with swimming yeah.... After that went for breakfast at the hotel. Today boleh lambat2 sket coz our tour guide akan datang jam 10am. Today jugak la I kena sakit perut, loya2 and muntah yang begitu teruk sekali. Waktu tu rasa macam tak mau pi mana2 pun coz terlalu sakit, nak jalan pun tak boleh. Thanks to Sal for ubat2 and alhamdulillah bila dah tengahari sakit semakin reda and dah boleh berjalan. Klu tak 3rd day tour ni memang tak dapat nak enjoy la.

Actually I tak pandai swim pun, main2 je

Mr. Wayan drove us to the 1st destination i.e. Bedugul for its Mengwi Temple. This is the 2nd largest temple in Bali. Waktu ni I'm still sakit2. So, masuk je the temple compund I terus dok kat rest area coz terlalu sakit dan tak dapat nak berjalan. Only Sal and family yang jln2 masuk kat dalam.

We all kat Mengwi Temple kejap je and the we proceeded to another part of Bedugul for our lunch. The lunch was at one of the restaurant kat tanah tinggi and situated just opposite the beautiful Lake Beratan. Kat sini jugak we all jumpa the 1st masjid kat Bali. On the way ke sini banyak fruits farm and vegetables market along the road. Macam2 sayur and buah ada. Makan kat sini pun mcm our lunch on the 2nd day jugak, tak berapa nak kena selera. Since my tummy pun masih tak ok tak berani nak makan byk2, takut bertambah sakit nanti. After makan we went down across the road and took pics in front of the lake.

Just the 2 of us

Sana Sini

We skipped our visit to Royal Temple of Taman Ayun and from Bedugul, we proceeded to Alas Keduton nak tengok monyet2 kat Monkey Forest. Tampat ni kecik je. Selain monyet2 kat sini ada kelawar. Yang manriknya kelawar2 ni memang 'hang'kan diri masing2 kat pokok di bawah cahaya matahari yang terik. Bukan satu dua, tp banyak sangat.

Next, we went to the best known and most photograped temple in Bali i.e. Tanah Lot. The temple here symbolizes the meeting point of natural and cosmic elements. Its also famous for its magnificient sunset. Unfortunately, we were there at noon, so tak dapat la nak tengok sunset. Except for the wheather yang panas giler, I really love this place. Sungguh cantik ciptaan Tuhan.

Welcome to Tanah Lot!

Kat Tanah Lot jugak ada pasar yang agak besar. Before balik jalan2 cari souvenir, dapat la beli fridge magnet. Kat pasar Tanah Lot tu ada 2 kedai je yang jual fridge magnet yang macam tu. In fact on the next day when we went to Pasar Sukawati the same fridge magnet memang takde. Kat airport ade la, but the price off course mahal.

Ni la fridge magnet yang susah nak jumpa sangat tu

After Tanah Lot, lebih kurang jam 6 we all bertolak nak gi dinner kat Restoran Jali-Jali at Galleria Shopping Complex. Galleria ni tempat duty free. Macam2 branded item ada kat sini, tapi leceh sikit klu nak beli barang coz after bayar tak boleh bawak balik barang. Kena provide personal details and flight info to the cashier and they will sent the items straight away to airport. Before check in kena la collect. Takut jugak nak buat macam tu, kalau2 terlupa kan susah. On the way nak balik sempat lagik beli t-shirt kat Planet Hollywood Bali.

Malam tu, lepas balik dari tour, mandi2 and tukar baju we all keluar gi jln2 kat Kuta Square. Its just a walking distance from our hotel. Dah nak balik KL tapi kaki pun tak jejak lagi kat Kuta. Nak gi waktu siang memang la tak sempat. So, malam tu kite gi lepak2 kat Starbucks, tengok2 barang kat Hard Rock Megastore and beli barang untuk diri sendiri kat Hard Rock Cafe Bali.

Bali Day 2 - Part 2

This is a spectacular view of the still active volcano Gunung Batur and Lake Batur at Kintamani, the place where we had our lunch for the day. This place lebih kurang macam cameron highlands gitu. Naik bukit dan cuaca sungguh nyaman dan dingin sekali.

Ni pencuci mulut, ada jeruk bali (limau), pisang emas and buah markisa.

Buah Markisa ni nak makan cam gini, kena bukak macam kupas buah manggis.

Isinya, ala2 buah delima tp lembik sket

Pastu makan guna sudu. Sedap bangat!!

Lepas makan terus bertolak ke Tampaksiring to visit Elephant Cave and Holy Spring Temple. On the way singgah makan 'durian Bali' kat tepi jalan. Sedap, macam durian kampung kat sini.

Habih makan durian, we all terus ke Tampaksiring Holy Spring Temple. Kat sini selain dari temple ada gak pasar kecil jual sovenir. Gambaq pasar tak dan nak ambik sbb orang2 kat situ dok tarik tangan suruh beli brg depa saja. Mintak murah tak mau jual pulak tuh.

After jalan2 kat Holy Temple, we all terus gi Elephant Cave, our last destination for the day. Waktu ni dah petang badan pun dah letih sangat. Tapi nak gi Elephant Cave ni nak kena turun tangga pulak. Part turun ni ok, nak naik satgi yang tak larat tuh.

Inilah Elephant Cave. Ada macam gajah ka? Its just a name and actually this place was used as the meditation spot and also as the place for Hindus to practice Yoga.

Ini pandangan dari atas tangga. Yang macam ketul2 batu tu bekas tapak Temple yang dah pecah.

Disimpan untuk kajian.

Last but not least, before balik hotel kite semua dibawa ke Natrabu for dinner. Makanan enak sekali, dapat la cover lunch kat Kintamani yang tak berapa selera nak makan.
