Day 2 - Bali & Lombok

There was nothing much on the first day, so I decided to start with Day 2.

We took a flight from Singapore to Bali, and stayed in a cosy hotel in Sanur

It was a nice & cosy hotel with swimming pool. The rates are reasonable as well.

However, given a choice, I would rather stay at Kuta Beach area, where it is more happening.

Next time...

I love its bed linen...

damn smooth and comfortable.

We took a domestic flight - Merpati Airline from Bali-Lombok.

It was the shortest flight that I have ever taken - around 30mins.

Basically, we just took off and landed.

See the joy in everybody's face when we landed. =)

Indonesian Airlines do not have good track records, so it was pretty scary experience for me. The alternative mode of transport would be ferry, which will take 5 hours, and normally the ferry is overloaded. Indonesia ferry services do not have good records as well.

I got an accident insurance coverage prior to this trip.

Just in case...

Farmland - laidback and relaxing

This is one of my favourite pics of the trip - the green field, the coconut trees and the sky.

It wasn't our choice, as there was a blackout.
