    The end of our Indonesian adventure

    It was to be our final day in Bali and it began with a relaxing breakfast out on the hotel’s terrace.  Our last opportunity to order from the egg station which had served up perfectly poached eggs for me each morning and delivered them to the table. As we’d arranged a late check-out until 3.00…

    Discover Kuta, Bali: Top things to do

    Unusually at breakfast this morning, all the staff were looking beautiful wearing traditional Balinese national dress rather than their uniforms.  I commented how lovely they looked and enquired why they were dressed in this way. Apparently it was Prophet’s Day when it is customary to wear national dress.  The entire team looked wonderful in their…

    The Fishing Village of Jimbaran, Bali: Seafood, Sunset & Local Charm

    We slept soundly until 8.00 a.m. it being extremely quiet despite the airport’s close proximity.  Breakfast was again a peaceful affair as, apart from our first morning (Saturday), few guests seemed to be around.  JetStar cabin crew arrive daily on overnight stopovers and appeared friendly enjoying their mini-breaks in beautiful Bali. For our morning trip…

    It was just as well that we had set our alarm for 7.00 a.m. as we once again received a knock on the door with our morning newspaper.  After enjoying a large breakfast we returned to our room for our cameras, sunglasses and bottles of water then went down to the foyer to wait for…

  • Exploring Kuta, Bali

    It was still dark when we were wakened by the sounds of someone knocking on our bedroom door, and glancing at the time, wondered whatever it could be.  My son went to open the door and was handed a morning newspaper.  Apparently as IHG members we were entitled to a complimentary daily newspaper and the…

    Jakarta to Bali with AirAsia: Travel Tips and Flight Info

    For the first time this holiday we were both awake before our alarm went off.  This wasn’t a bad thing though as the earlier start to the day enabled us to enjoy a leisurely breakfast in the Novotel.  We kept with our selection from the previous days and munched our way through this whilst reading…
