My Journey: Bali Day 2

29th February-This date only appears in every 4years.I'm so into my holidays until I do not remember what day is today..Tuesday?Wednesday?Thursday?This sounded like a good news to me where at last I can live my life without knowing the date and time.Anyway it was Wednesday.

I woke up when the sun rises.I got myself ready and went for my breakfast.The restaurant staff were really friendly,polite and nice Balinese.The supervisor is from Ubud and he gave me a lot of information for my stay in Ubud.After a Nice breakfast, I went for Spa and Massage!I'm so fortunate to enjoy the February Promotion-Shirodara Spa and Massage with 50% discount on the last day of February!The guy who told me about the hotel with dolphin came back to me when i visited the hotel spa.I made up my mind and booked my Day 7 hotel room with Melka Excelsior Hotel.The staff allowed me to use their computer to handle my bookings online and printed out the voucher for me.Everything just went smoothly!Day 7 Hotel settled,Now,Spa time!I really enjoyed the Balinese full body massage.It's so relaxing.It was my 1st time trying out Shirodara where they continuously drips aromatherapy essential oil on my third eye for 15minutes.It was really warm when it dripped on my forehead.As a clairvoyant I saw very clearly in my mind eyes the whole process of third eye cleansing.I felt like I had a brand new third eye when the process ended.The Spa session ended with Herbal Flower bath.I'm like dipping myself in a flower pool~Wee~~^^..I Love the ginger tea that they served with a piece of cookie.



I was in my relax mode until the clock caught my attention.It's 12pm already!My driver is waiting for me at the reception area!Oh No!I rush my way to the reception area and i saw this guy facing back to me with a black cap,black T-shirt,dark skin sitting on the sofa.The bell boy went:"Miss Sarah,this is your driver.He has been waiting for u since 11.30am."The guy turned his head and said:"Hi,Miss Sarah!"He's a young Balinese,23years old,nice,polite and shy.His name is Ketut.You'll be seeing his name quite often because he's my driver,body guard,photographer,meal buddy,travel partner,my student and a dear friend of mine in Bali.I'll share with you how did all of this Great things happen.Ketut told me that he's still learning English and he's not fluent in speaking English.I encouraged him to speak as much as he can and I'll be practicing English and teaching him with Malay translations.Fate brought both of us together to have the maximum Fun in Bali!

First stop we went to Ku De Ta beach and Petitenge temple.Ku De Ta beach is a place where it's nice to chill and have sunbathing.After a few photo shots,we proceeded to Seminyak's Famous Warung Made(Ma-De) for lunch.Although it's the 1st time me and Ketut met each other but i insisted that he have his lunch together with me because I get the chance to try out 2 dishes instead of 1.(That's how demanding I can be..Hehe!)We ordered Nasi Campur,Friend Rice and we shared the food.Something caught my attention throughout our journey,which is Bakso carts.The cart looks the same,they sell the same food and they seem not bothered by whether there will be competition among each other.There was this 1 straight 500 meters road with 4 Bakso cart.I came out with this idea of calculating how many Bakso carts we can see along our journey.Here we go,1..2..3......



We reached our next destination-Dreamland Jimbaran!It's a Beautiful white sand beach!I just love it!But is was really very very Hot!We continued our journey to Padang-Padang beach and we stopped by Ulu Watu temple.Amazing Seaview from the cliffs.There were monkeys all around the place.Check out the complete version of photos in my facebook.A picture speaks a thousand words!We visited Geger beach next and they are building the largest hotel there.




We reached our last stop at Jimbaran beach for the famous sunset.Before walking into the much more affortable Melasti Restaurant I took my Bakso dosage!Me and Ketut we both ordered only coconut and coca-cola.We got the front sit for sunset.While waiting i pick up a flower and place it on my ears just like Balinese does.I did my sand artwork and kicking the sea water.Ketut started to learn how to snap nice photos with my camera.We fooled around till the sun set.It was really Beautiful.Ketut caught a photo with a dolphin inside!Check out the photo below!I visited Jimbaran before on November 2011 so i knew how overly priced their seafood is.So we just paid for our drinks.We chit chat throughout the Macet(Traffic Jam) and get to know each other more.Ketut described his Kampung life and I asked him whether can I visit his Kampung the next day.He was so welcoming and just said SURE!We end our journey with total number of 29 Bakso carts!Bare in mind that we started calculating after lunch.To me,Bali is like a Bakso land.Haha!


I reached the hotel and went to the spa to collect my flowers for my own night time flower bath.In the morning,the staff told me that it will cost 50,000rph but ended up the night shift staff gave me the flowers for free.Although is was a long day but everything went smoothly and I enjoyed myself with my new friend.I'm anticipating for tomorrow's Bali Village day!YEAH!I am so grateful to my lovely dear angels that make it a wonderful Bali Day 2!
