Bali 2007 Day 3 - Uluwatu to Sanur

 

Pancakes, toasts and a bible

The Big Breakfast Show

i'm not sure why but people do get hungry after such a long rest. Anybody got an analogy on this phenomena? Furthermore, nowadays people eat accompanied by some eyecandy entertainment at the side..as proven by those six guilty above who determined to fill their stomach with all sorts of caffeine, cholestrol, oil and sugar while watching nonsense indon tv morning program.

immediately after breakfast we check out the nearby Padang-Padang Beach...so eager to hit it yesterday but no time..the ocean is just in front of our place but you have to step down a cliff (joker here will direct you)

Scott and his famous saujana-mata-memandang-i-wear-nice-sunglasses pose

stepped down and walla..seriously magnifico..a short and secluded beach..and for all our concern a private beach for us..for a day at least

Feeling the magnetic force of the beach

magnetic force?

Of observation and drastic action

Childrens having fun at the theme park

Padang-Padang's Loch Ness monsters

those childrens were xtremely happy... they berendam for a good 2 hours..this after-rendam picture of sedi and jos proves it

Sedi getting intimate with the statue, jos disapproves the whole affair

Wet my pants

climbed back to our room to pack and continue our journey today..but wait...lets rewind  the scene an hour before breakfast.

actually i got up early today and went down the beach...as u can see the sun was not yet in its full potential...encountered a few surfers who determine to master the early morning waves...but this particular surferkid was a bit kiasu...just sit around doing nothing

 

Due due kiasu

so back to the future now, after everybody was ready to rocknroll

Wave farewell to uluwatu waves

 destination today: Sanur

Day 3

Journey to Sanur

took approximately an hour drive from Padang-Padang, Uluwatu to Sanur.  Melantak lunch at one of the nasi padang restaurant along the highway.

Sun Nur

seriously the travelling bible (refer 1st pic) gave us a lot of info on Bali inside out ..including recommended place to stay...so the winning losmen today is Yulia Homestay, located right in the center of Sanur only a five-minute walk to the beach. All rooms have terraces with furniture to sit out overlooking balinese garden

Check-inn

looks like the ceiling-roomkey team will make new friends with the hat-shoe duo for a nite

Joker observing the room key while the ceiling welcomes the shoes

after a short rest, a member of the homestay staff drove us for a short sightseeing tour of the Sanur town. Then, he left us stranded at the beach

Life a beetch

Jalan-jalan kene tinggal

there was a 6-sense telephatic connection among the mouth of ours..they informed us they wanted to munch something

OPERATION JAGUNG BAKAR

You just make sure the makcik is in-between the jagungs

Dont view, they want to concentrate

we kill the evening by checking out the whole stretch of the beach from one end to another..Quiet and relatively laid back, Sanur has a certain flair about it that appeals to just about everyone from a typical mat sallehs to President of Mawi Fan Club.

"cari apa mas?"......."errr...saya nak tengok tengok je..."

This time sedi get intimate with makcik jual baju

Walked back to our place, playing a traditional game called 'lets guess which way back to the homestay"

Jigsaw

on the way, stumbled upon this...

Damn...they open my franchise without my knowledge

should i sue 'em?

______________________________

Nite

after a short rest and a quick shower (no no..we do not shower together..all 6 of us are straight...or bi? not sure) the homestay staff suggested we visit this big nite market at the nearby Denpasar (Bali capital)..

so off we went...millions of  local people were  there buying all sort of stuffs.. even a concert was going on...kinda circus atmosphere there

..and seriously i started to get a headache  

Pasar Rakyat, DenPasar

we spent just a short time there..why? 1.Havoc  2.Hungry Solution? Nasi Padang

Regu A VS Regu B for Piala Nasik Padang

checkout the writing on the T

Cewek Cafe Juga Manusia

harharhar....laughter is the best appetizer...

after dinner we went back to Sanur and wind down at Sanur Jazz Cafe' 

(L to R) - Posing, Reading, Reading, Hantar Laporan

the above pic shows a variety of healthy activities which can be done while waiting for the band to hit the stage

Layan Band Syok Sendiri

this is a jazzy place..so normally people expect some jazz/latino/fusion type of music.  but this band played the usual hey-lets-play-shitty-top-40-radio-friendly-songs. I think Feminin and 4U2C should do a reunion and save this club.

Scott enjoying his final laugh of the day

went back to our place to call it a nite.  Sorry i dont have any picture of us sleeping

end of day 3
