Back from Bali!

Back from Bali WITHOUT a tan thankyouverymuch. Don't ask me how that happened. We sat under the sun for 3 hours one hot late morn till noon and another day during late afternoon. Just didn't cook. Hmrph! Shopping was pretty decent in Bali, trick is to NOT go to Kuta, but to Legian which is slightly further from the main beach area. Sequinned slippers for $3/pair anyone?

Went to a gorgeous gorgeous restaurant called KU DE TA. Pretty expensive but worth every penny! Dinner in the main restaurant, after which u can proceed to lounge in deck chairs with your fancy martinis/wines overlooking waves crashing into shores. It was all very romantic of coz except it was just us 3 single gals. Yeah, even the taxi driver asked us "Kudeta, very romantic, where r the men?" Thanks, rub it in why don't u?

Also tried out local cuisine which in all honesty, no biggie. Thai food is much better, but thanks to Alice's great recommendation, our last nite was not wasted as we went to "KOPI POT" where there was an excellent mee goreng and a funky coq au vin (chicken cooked in red wine sauce with onions and mushrooms!) I kinda like it but I think it takes a while to get used to the taste.

Gotta go crash as I need to be up in 5 hours time to go to HK.

Will update on Bali when I'm back!
