#11 - Fantasia Bulan Madu Day 1

Since I have a little bit of time, I would like to start the first entry of our honeymoon in Bali.

A little bit of info before I begin. Our honeymoon is actually a wedding gift from my sisters in law. Obviously we accepted the gift happily as we don't have any plans for our honeymoon yet. Unrealistically, we both want to go to Italy. Tapi impian itu ibarat memetik bintang di langit. Tidak tercapai (yet). Jadi impian mahu ke Italy tangguh dulu.

The initial package was for 3D2N. Accommodation, flight and one day tour were included. But, we extended our stays to 2 more nights. Barulah puas kalau nak berjalan.

Day 1:

Our flight was at 12.25pm at KLIA. We took MAS. First time for me as I always travel with AirAsia (my favourite airlines :P ). Since we have like one hour to kill, we took the aerotrain to the other side and look for something to eat.

We were at the waiting lounge for good half an hour when we informed that our flight is delayed for another half an hour. Sabar je lah. Maka tak perlu ok nak gebang satu dunia AirAsia flight delay. Semua airlines pun sama.

We departed at 1.05 sharp. It was a smooth take off. Forgot that this is MAS and not AirAsia, I went through the pocket in front of me to find the menu the moment. Chet. Silly me.

An hour or so, we were served with lunch. I chose dried chili chicken with rice while En. Suami chose dried chili chicken stragonoff with pasta (or something like that). Tried to sleep but hardly catch a wink. En. Suami slept like a baby. Jealous.

We reached Ngurah Rai International Airport around 4.30. We were greeted by Putu, our driver of the day. In Bali, we stayed at Aston Kuta Hotel and Residence. Not too far away from airport. Upon checking in, we were told that our room is not ready yet. YES. NOT READY. Patut aku meletup ke tidak. But, the girl quickly informed us that we can have our complimentary light meal while waiting for the room.

FINE.

So, we had Nasi Goreng Seafood.

After maghrib, we decided to walk around Kuta town. Tapi alangkah sedihnya, gelap je. Dah tu tak tahu nak ke mana. Bengong sekejap. Maka half way, patah balik ke hotel, ambil Ipad dan google apa yang boleh digoogle dan menelek peta. Apparently, we were not too far away from Kuta Square. So we took taxi and off we go.

The taxi driver was quite friendly, telling us which shop we can go for souvenir shopping and all. Point noted. The moment we reached Kuta Square, my heart leaped with joy. I saw beautiful shops I can go crazy. There's Ripcurl, Paul Smith, Giordano and almost every other brands. My mind was doing mental calculation everytime I saw the price tag. Tiba-tiba aku terror maths. Haha.

So, we roamed around. See what other interesting stuff at Kuta Square. There's The Coffee Bean (yeay!), KFC, McDonalds (not sure whether they are halal), Starbucks, Hard Rock (double yeay!), souvenir shops, Uluwatu brand shop.

After walking aimlessly, we stopped for a drink at Starbucks at Discovery Mall. Initially we wanted to take the opportunity to browse the internet but unfortunately we have to register with hotspot. Malas so we ended camwhoring.

Then, it's time to head back to the hotel. While coming to Kuta Square only cost us less than 10K rupiah but going back to the hotel cost us 20K Rupiah. Gila cekik darah ok. Itupun after we bargain otherwise it's gonna cost us like 30K rupiah.

Now, let's rest as we have one full day tour.

Till then.
