No, I am not talking about Disneyland because I believe everyone has got their own version of happiest place on earth. Well my happiest place on earth is Bali. yes Bali the island. The reason is because simply whenever I went there I had awesome experience. The Island is not only beautiful but also have the nicest people on earth :) You can go there alone and people will kindly help you with stuff. Well, maybe because I speak the same language...IDK...my point is Whenever I went there i had new experiences.
One of the most memorable happened about a year ago when I went there with my Mom, Dad, Nephew, Sister and Brother in Law. We Stayed at Novotel Nusa Dua, that place is heaven :) It has the most awesome swimming pool, with very nice water temperature, greatest breakfast buffet ( I can fulfill my sushi crave in the morning) , nicest staffs, lots and lots of foreign people ( I could swear I saw a few Indonesians who is not the staff) and also the private beach...it was a nice 5 days vacation that took place just before I had my final exam last year...I know my family has weird habit such as going on holiday in the middle of busy time. when I was missing for a week my college mates always raised their brows "she's at Bali?" but I had so much fun!!!
The Hotel (Or should I say apartment?)
My Building (I lived on the second floor)
View from my balcony
Pretty Lotus Pond
Golf Court
The beach!!!!!!!!
(oh and a lesson to learn do not wear your last pair of clean pants to the beach or you'll be ended up drying them on your hotel room balcony and made your foreigner neighbours smile at you)
Let's go bury Daddy in the sand!!!
I told you the hotel was awesome :) I wish I could stay there forever :P
About the food, well basically I had the same breakfast from the Hotel Restaurant (it's a marathon of (don't be surprised) Fried rice, steamed veggies, and tea NEXT bagels, french toast, pancakes and orange juice, THEN sushi and mineral water LAST I had cereals with milk and yogurt) I always ended up running to the hotel room (you know why))
For lunch we usually found whatever near Us, yeah Balinese food but, once we intentionally went to Ubud to find Bebek Bengil (Famous Duck Restaurant) it took like 1 hour trip there but it was a delight. The food was great, the view and not to mention the rice field...It feels like I am back to my hometown in Central Java. The food
The famous Place
The food (it was not all, mostly had been devoured before I had the chance to take picture, I was so hungry that my hands shook)
Me and my nephew at the rice field
My family and I went sight seeing to so many places, Like Kuta beach, Sanur beach, Alas Kedaton (famous for its monkeys), Bedugul (famous for the famous picture, you'll see why), Jimbaran (famous for the sea food), Tanah Lot (the sunset and temple), Taman Ayun (famous for IDK what ;0), GWK (for the magnificent statues), Pasar Sukowati (Balinese Cheap Souvenirs , I could not help my self there,I was the biggest spender in that shopping trip),
At Taman Ayun
Monkeys at Alas Kedaton
Bedugul is actually on a mountain (it's like the most popular Indonesia postcard picture, I mean Bedugul not my family)
Me and my weird foot popping,,,I always do that in pictures...don't know why
The Famous Tanah Lot
My Nephew and I

None of us looks happy (me- angry, my sister - confuse, dad - stunned, mom - shocked, my nephew - tired)
so much for family holiday

My Nephew and His Dad..
The songs on this trip was my John Mayer Mix
I don't really listen to anything cause I slept most of the time on the trip. The good thing is I spent so many times crossing the same street that the next time I went to Bali I saved the journey :) even though I can't drive I surely can lead the way
See you real soon
