Bali 6D5N Itinerary

Bali offers too much excitement and I could only choose the most-people-travelled out of numerous interesting places for our first BaLi ViSiT. Armed with latest edition of Lonely Planet (published Mar 2011) and forums & blogs research, I proposed a fully packed exploration journey and Nusa Lembongan was part of my wanted plan...

However, like Chinese saying - plans can't beat changes. Plan does change.

The plan first changed when I realised the most frustrated thing for the month was there one day before the trip. During THAT period, women are not allowed to enter their temple and SPA is almost impossible besides massage. For these 2 reasons, I decided to twist the plan a bit.

After arriving in Ubud, we all deeply fell in love to Ubud and hence we decided to stay one more night at Ubud and just relax throughout the trip.. The most enjoyable day were the day girls become Tai Tai (rich women) where we just kept shopping - spa - eat and sleep while guys were delighted by the Telaga Waja rafting journey.

=======================================================

You may realise that we went to Kintamani 2 times. On 3rd day, we left the comfy bed at 4.30am and departed at 5am for the sake of beautiful sunrise at Kintamani but it turned out to be cloudy... Therefore, we went for 2nd time on 5th day. Lucky, Kintamani showed us the real him on our 2nd attempt...

We took out nusa lembongan and added water rafting which was a perfect choice...

Overall, we did enjoy and relax to MAX =D
