Indonesian style breakfast to start the day.
Delicious fried noodles with sunny side up.
With fruits and watermelon juice.
We didnt get a driver for the day, so taking a cab instead. While waiting for the cab. This is our villa lobby.
We are heading to Ubud. We know that its gonna be a long journey, but didnt expect it to be so LONG~~~~ It took us 1hr 45mins to finally arrive at Babi Guling - the famous suckling pig place.
A very small shop which is packed with tourists.
We managed to find a cosy little corner to sit thou.
This is mine. The special set.
This is his. Similar, just that the "liao" is put separately and comes with soup.
Ice tea
Finished
Hmmm... I think it is not fantastic lei, i dun really like. Kind of scared while eating cos i do not know what i m eating. I always tot ah tick is very choosy when it comes to food, but i m so wrong. This bali trip makes me realise that i m the more picky one. N he is like a rubbish bin. Whatever that i cannot finish, he can eat them all up. Haha
There's Citi banner everywhere in Bali, expecially in Ubud!! There is a Writers and Readers festival going on from 6-10oct. We took some photos bcos there is actually a contest going on, whereby we can submit photos that we took while travelling and can stand a chance to win something. My banker took part, but i am not sure if the contest is still on. Just take la.
Going for a spa next. And we have arranged for the pickup outside Babi Guling.
SANg Spa. Located at a ulu corner, no way you can find the place if we hadnt book it online. A real "shi wai tao yuan"!!!
We had a 2 hours treatment, which includes massage, scrub & bath. Cost IDR 250,000 each.
After massage, the driver dropped us at Ubud town, where we can do some shopping. BUT, there is nothing to buy at all!!!! I think its me la, haha. The things are not to be likings. We walked and walked, asked around for directions, and we actually manage to walk to our next destination - Bebek Bengil. We are so proud of ourselves!!
This is where we settled our dinner. The famous dirty duck.
Us & pa jiao.. hehe
After dinner, we head back to Seminyak. A long journey back. We got a driver, he's actually not a taxi driver, but i think in Bali, as long as you have a decent car, you can be a driver. He is damn zai!! He took lots of shortcuts, the roads in Bali are super dark, with no street lights, very few street signs, but he just know the way. We only took 1 hour, its like 45mins faster than the journey there. Amazing.
It's still early, so we had time to shop at Seminyak square. Seminyak is a more atas place as compared to Ubud. Again, there is nothing for me to buy. This is the first time that a guy is trying v hard to get me to shop. But my comments in every shop is "nothing", "dont like, dont want", "let's go". Ah tick buay tahan. Ubud too traditional, Seminyak too atas.
But Seminyak is a very nice place for food and chill. Thou the restauants are poshed and atas, but when you look at the menu, they are actually affordable and cheaper than our Jimbaran seafood meal. It's my birthday, hehe, so before it ends, ah tick is going to get me a cake.
We settled for this place called Rumours.
Ice water
Comes with free bread
His - Banana cake with ice cream
Mine - Mango Crumble. Haha, forgot to take picture, so when i remembered, the ice cream has melted.
Happy Birthday to Me!!!
I wish.. I wish... I wish...
I was telling him, 2 years ago, my birthday was spent at Bintan, last year, i went to Bangkok, this year its Bali... I wonder where will i be next year.. N he says, wow.. All starts with B... So, hmm, Batam? Brisbane? Barcelona? Brazil? Hahaha
