Bali:

A long 13 hour flight paired with a baby on the right crying most of the way, did not make an enjoyable journey to Bali. Then there was check-in but we all know what that’s like. When we finally arrived at our 5 star hotel, we were greeted with shelled necklaces and refreshing fruity beverages. After being escorted to our rooms, we fished out our bathing suits and went straight down to the pool.  The weather is always ideal for a swim. Bali’s weather is known to be humid sometimes a little rain but the majority of the time it is very warm (around 30°).

 

The place where the most markets are found is in Kuta. The streets are filled mainly by little market shops selling many things, including, Louis Vuitton and Gucci immitations that look quite genuine, jewellery and wooden carved goods. If you have a family then Nusa Dua is the place to be, it is an enclosed area with lots of security. The hotels are very child friendly and there are lots of activities to entertain.

 

 

 

 

 

There is also a theme park, Water Bomb Park, it is a great attraction for all ages. It has more than 21 water slides and leisure facilities. It is located in Kuta and is open daily from 6am to 9pm.

 

Bali is a place that is good for relaxation, one of my favourite things to do and that I recommend is, at some point during your trip, take a moment to enjoy a massage. Imagine lying on a beach whilst having massage, it was one of the most relaxing things I have ever experienced.

 

The sunsets are amazing, picture an orange haze casted over the moving sea, reflected off every wave. Half of a glowing radiant light loomed on the water’s horizon. That’s what I was seeing almost every day.
