traVelog: AIR, LAND, SEA... this is BALI

Wasssuppp Shaz: Preparations for Eid'l fitr at home has been tremendously... err how to say this.. VERY the MESSY to CLEAN! Repainting here and there and new furnitures and TVs n all.. What i can say is that my room is the cleanest and bacteria free! LOL

Now, BALI - Went on a cruise to limbongan island if i'm not mistaken. An ok place... the boat ride takes an hour from the mainland to the island. So if you're a sea sick kinda person please ensure that you have had your tablets in advance - if not juz eat it anyways! Coz i thought i won't have such problems coz i do travel to langkawi n pangkor... but mind you this is a 1 HOUR to go and 1 HOUR return back to mainland. Compared to your usual langkawi or pangkor trip... this is no where near there!

If you've watched the snorkeling video for this island, well don't really trust the video coz it really depends on the weather on the day and the previous days... coz the visibility under the water depends on the weather. Its a bit polluted... yes although we are far out in the ocean, can't really see much of the corals or the fishes.

We thought that this was just bcoz of the snorkeling area... so we went into the semi-submerge submarine and same... all we got was a BLUE SCREEN ... like when your PC goes bonkers.

The waves are good! The food here is ok... but of course salt water sea... make sure you have enough change of clothes, your own shower gel that really clean you up! Otherwise you're so gonna be SALTY when you reach back to the hotel. Mind you this is like a day trip from 8am till 5pm.

Overall, this trip is a GREAT ONE! Enjoyed every single bit of it with my bunch of friends... enjoy the piccas :)

All sorts of ships are docked here...

Even a French battle ship is here!

But we're juz on an excursion cruise k :) no battles for us...

The lifeguard on the other hand... has a battle to do! against the sun shine :P

Buffet lunch at the island... yes it's included in the package!

Semi submerged submarine! It's actually a ship with a basement viewing area!

All you see is pure BLUE sea!

Yea really we can't see anything... blue screen of death on ur PC!

We went on the BALI HAI CRUISE :)

Dinner was back at the hotel, awesome view from the observation deck :)

My friends in their beachwear :)

Wei Kit... wahh you arr so lucky to be with the girls!

I simply love this picca!!! Awesome view of the moon...

My other friends, we are getting ready to depart!

Happy enough that we got tanned here in BALI!

traVelog: BALI, a surfer's paradise...

Wasssuppp Shaz: MERDEKA MERDEKA & Hari Raya... Quite a celebration going on in this 2 months... Puasa month and Merdeka Celebration then its Hari Raya already! Whoaaa... what a time to celebrate and shop too!

Anyhow, here's a continuation to the holiday that i had recently with a few photo kakis.... we went to BALI. Experienced a whole lot of stuffs and get to learn about not just the people and their lives here but also the culture and the way people live or more like their standards of living.

Actually, if you think that Indonesia is a poor country - it may be but there are certain places like it capital which is rich in the emergence of new shopping malls, new outlets... but also places like bali which is like a tourish hub. Its always filled with tourists - who are big spenders rising the economy for the country.

Anyways... not gonna bore you with a financial report... here's the photos!

The greens here are really green and the sky is really blue! No edits on piccas..

Garyyyy u're floating! Hahaha... ok don't fall..

Picture Color / WB - Edited: Balinese baby with grand uncle!

Forgot what's the temple is called but its a nice one!

BALI: one of the nicest place to lookout for the sunset here!

BALI - The Epic Moment

Wasssuppp Shaz: I go to gym 6 times a week now, sometimes 5... this week seems to be a lazy week for me! No motivation to go... i don't know why! But i have seen great results on me! I'm starting to wear all my old clothes! And those clothes that i bought recently (used to be tight) are now well got lotsa space! Hahahah... Determination, Motivation all HELPS! Don't loose it... I go to gym and work out and i have faith that i can be FIT again like how i was once before!

BALI, Indonesia: Trip with Brian, Patrick, Xian Jin and myself... yes 4 of us! We had a helluva trip, stayed in a 4 star resort @ Swissbel Hotel - Nusa Dua, flew in via AirAsia and had a great tour guide / driver around and the whole trip cost us very very cheap!

Had the time of my life touring around with great friends, had a great time partying, exploring the places, temples and much more! The FOOD here is simply DELICIOUS, there's so much i want to share... but i've shared it much earlier in my post about BALI and places to eat and all.

Btw - if you do come to BALI, some of the places you must head on to for FOOD is Waroeng Nikmat, Nasi Pedas Bu Andika and of course the all time famous BANJARAN Seafood! But here's the trick... if your driver brings you to Banjaran, make sure you tell him to drop you off by the side so that you can walk thru each restaurant and find the one with the best view! Although each restaurant faces the same facade - but the deco and entertainment for each is different! The price of the food around - some places the drinks are cheap, the food is expensive... some is the other way round but its all about the same. So the trick is, to walk by the beach and find the one restaurant that you LIKE! The table setting are different for each so yea.. choose your best!

As for you to contact your driver... just buy a local simpack there it costs less than RM5 :)

For now, i'm just going to feature some photos of my trip to Bali!

Photos below are ORIGINAL, no edits, no changes of brightness or contrast... i have no time for all that! So sorry if the pics are not as nice... or doesn't seem like what it's suppose to be!

BALI - Truly A Surfer's Paradise (Day1)

(Blog Update for 2nd June 2009)

We embarked on a journey to seek for a peace of mind, to celebrate a 21st b'day and to rest ourselves for many many more weeks of work / uni to come in the next month! 4 Young Lads - Patrick, Brian and Xian Jin... oh yea me too!

It all started one morning where i went to pick up all 3 to go to LCCT - we arrived there at 8.45am and went thru all the cool shit @ AirAsia to check-in to our flight AK362 to Denpasar - BALI. The first day was nothing much really, we arrived at Denpasar, got a cab to the hotel... other than that it was all fine. Went for water rugby or something with the guys - end up Patrick and I winning the game against Xian Jin and Brian.

6Pm we headed to the city to shop and eat... ended the day at nearly 11pm! The sunset in Bali is really early around 5 sumthin 6. So go figure... we really felt that the night was so long there! Anyways - detailed explanations below with the pictures :)
