I am back from Bali just today at 8.30pm. I have went there for a 5 days 4 nights trip with my family. We arrived Bali on the 7th December 2011 and departed on the 11th December 2011.
On the 7th, we went and check-in to Nusa Dua Club Mirage Bali hotel. It was a 4 star hotel with a seaside just the moment you stepped out the hotel. I would say it was a great hotel if compared to the 3rd and 4th day hotel. =(
Upon arriving, we went on a Jetski at the Nusa Dua beach. It was a great experience with strong cooling wind and the speed of the Jetski gives it an all time adventurous feeling.

Then we walk on the beach for a while and have tea time at a Nusa Dua
restaurant. The food was alright and acceptable for an afternoon tea.

Then we went to Jimbaran for the sunset dinner at the seaside. We
ordered a table full of seafood from lobster, prawns, squid, and fish
with their white steam rice and kangkung. The scenery was great with
beautiful sunset and colorful sky unlike in Malaysia full of pollution.
I'm so going to miss Bali's beach and the environment there.

The beautiful sunset ends the first day in Bali. We also went to Sogo for a walk after the fulfilling dinner.
The next day is the 8th December 2011.
We start the day early in the morning at 7 something for breakfast at the hotel. It was a complementary breakfast given for the stay in the hotel. The food was alright with variety. After breakfast we were all ready for the second day journey.
We started off at 9am to a Batik house having to know the process of doing the Batik.

After the Batik House, we went to the silver factory. They show the process of making the silver jewellery. It was all handmade but super expensive!!!! >,<"

Then we went to the wood carving place. It was great being able to see the details of how they carve out the wood and the different type of woods available. Sandal wood was real expensive. For such small stature or miniature, it cost few hundred dollars. Now I know the value of wood in carving business. They actually have very great hand skills in carving those out...

After the beautiful wood carving place, we went to Kintamani for Volcano sightseeing and lunch there. The view were exceptionally beautiful with cooling wind and a traditional Bali lunch food. It was an AWESOME day there!

Then after the beautiful scenic view, we went to see their coffee plantation which are famous for their Luwak coffee (Shit coffee) like what many others have called. There are also other coffees that they are famous for and we have tried 8 types of coffee there.

Then we went to the Monkey Forest which is full of monkeys! They were so scary and all around the forest!!! In the end we just took picture outside as we are too scared to go in there with the thousands of monkeys around that may grab your things just like that!!

That ends the trip of the day for the sight seeing with the beautiful scenic view of Bali and we head back to the hotel to shower and change. We then went out to have our dinner at an Italian restaurant named Giorgia just like fine dining celebrating my aunt's birthday and my mum's wedding anniversary.

That ends our day trip on the 8th of December and we're all back to hotel for resting with their big king sized bed with the frills that covers the bed and we get to sleep without worries of mosquito bites! <3
The next day on the 9th December 2011 we started off in the morning at 9am to go for snorkeling. It was not as beautiful with corals and fishes but it was a great experience doing it. We will have another round in other Pulau's soon to have a better and scenic view of the flora and fauna's . =)

After the turtle island, we all went back to the hotel and shower. Then we continued our journey to the next hotel and checked in at Kuta The Oasis hotel. It is a 3 star hotel. When we arrived the hotel was not great as compared to the first and second day. This hotel however is very convenient to move around and go for shopping. On the day, we were all shopping around and it is a free and easy day to enjoy the shopping malls and also the places around to shop.

| Beautiful view (Don't be deceived by the outside!) |
