Bali Trip – 15th April 2010 – Day 4
Today was a Lay day, a bit of R & R. We had a play around in the pool after breakfast, then a quick stroll down the street. Brendan found all types of Fanta soft drink, strawberry, blueberry, lemon as well as the traditional orange. After about 2 hours of saying “no thank you ” we headed back to the hotel for another swim.
We had a few drinks at the pool & ordered some chips for lunch.
Brendan was picked up at 1pm for a Surfing lesson by 2 of the instructors & Yudah (MBA) came by to make sure all was ok, he was so excited we didn’t even get a goodbye, David & I went back to the room & changed clothes as we were going to walk down to the Hard Rock cafe where the lessons were being held – was sooo hot, only about 5min had passed & my clothes were drenched & I’d forgotten my hat. It took around 1/2 hour walking to get there. We found Brendan (only because he had his new bright green boardies on) & he was already up & on the board. We stayed, watched & took heaps of photo’s for about an hour before we made our way back.
We made a stop at Bruno’s Bar (Jarrad recommended) , which was a little stall on the beach, but he wasn’t there, so we kept going. We made it back & grabbed a cold drink ( I so needed that) before waiting for Brendan in the front lobby to get back..he was returned on the back of one of the instructors motorbikes – he really liked that.
More swimming & drinking before we decided to set out to find a different restaurant for tea.
We walked up Garlic lane 3 times looking for our fixed price shop ( I was getting a bit frustrated ! at this point), then noticed that it would be the one that was closed . After a bit of discussion we then settled on Legends Bar to eat, where David had chicken satays, which came out in a cute cylinder shaped container with charcoals in the bottom to keep it warm.you had to turn the sticks every so often, Brendan had the chicken curry, & I had the beef satays (chicken was nicer). 200,000rp
On the way back to the hotel we stopped off for ice cream at a small shop on the sidewalk & had a chat to the 2 ladies who worked there,
