The booking of air tickets had been very random.
When it was booked, we were only told that, air tickets had been booked but there was no venue and no dates
We only knew it was to Bali when Ivan posted the air tickets in fb
Yuwen was very very very excited.
She packed weeks before the day. Even though we were busy about thesis, lab work, exams etc etc
Almost everyone was planning to finish thesis during the semester break.
But we went for a holiday. Haha. Final year, final sem break :)
We kept our holiday plans a secret. They were surprised.

On the 7th of April 2012, Xinyee fetched me to her house and all of us departed from UPM
Thankss xinyee :) First time taking KLIA Express
There for early dinner at LCCT .. Marrybrown

While passing the Imigration.. 

Pity some of Yuwen's liquid products were disposed cz they exceeded the 100ml allowable for hand luggage o.O Nvm can buy new ones :) 

Pic while waiting for boarding :) 

Reached there at night after an approximate 3 hours flight

The first grp picture after getting off the plane in the airport. 

These arches are a familiar sight. Unique :) 

First night in Bali. Hey Bali :) 

Thanks Ivan for arranging the accomodation :) 

We stayed at Dana Guest House and it was like a homestay experience

Two/three of us in one small cottage in which each small cottage, there's a bed, a tv, and its own toilet

But there's only cold water in the toilet.. so everyone's fighting for hot water in the public toilet outside

But 1st night i could barely sleep..

Because while i was about to sleep, the rooster started to give good morning calls =.=

Good morning 1st Day at Bali :) 

Breakfast XD We had this for 3 consecutive mornings. Haha.
Start to feel hungry now hmmmph.. 

Departure XD 

Our motorcycle gang. Yupp. We travelled across Bali on motorcycles for 2 and half days

Never sat motorcycle for so many consecutive hours.. thanks dailou for fetching me :) 

Luckily it didnt rain but we were sunburnt

Fuel for the bikes by the roadside XD 

First stop: To a famous statue by the roadside.

 Actually we passed this last night on the way back to the guesthouse from the airport but didnt stop by

Parked our bikes by the roadside and crossed the road for pictures

However it was hot hot hot and we only managed a few, and this was one of them.

Next, to Blue Point.

Beautiful place for surfing. I wana learn surfing! 

However, first, i need to learn how to swim properly. Haha. Why i stil cant swim til now. ZzZ 

Chasing the waves, in my to do list.. :) 

Group picture :) 

There, we too got ourselves some souvenirs- sunglasses and slippers. Haha

Sunglasses needed due to the sandy roads .. lotsa sand flew into my eyes T-T 

After biking for so long, time for lunch and some drinks XD 

Then, we went to Uluwatu, if not mistaken. lol. 

We were each given a cloth for respect..

Purple for females..

And blue for males..

Walau.. they were more hiao than us. Haha

Group picture before entrance :) 

Selang-seli purple and blue XD

The movie is really a success.

Cz no matter where we went, there would be a take like this :P

Take 1.. random look 

Take 2.. look left.. 

Take 3.. point at you XD 

The view from the top.. =) 

Group picture again :) 

Another group picture :) 

Had some coconut before we were off to another destination XD 

Rm5 per coconut.. so expensive.. but its a tourist destination.. so kayy

SS Picture XD Got Malaysian feel~

Somewhere on the way back, we saw this place and decided to take pics

One thing being on bikes was that we could stop whenever we wanted:) 

:)

Lol. See flat ground. Jump shots.

Looked like graduation hats? :) 

Next, we stopped at a beach. This picture was so nice.

But Shin, Yuwen and I were missing cz we decided to go food hunting 

Got some nice local food but missed out on shots.. haha. 

Hmm. Worth it cz we were hungry that time.. travelling burnt lotsa energy

Sunset. Indescribable by words. 

Ended the day with dinner nearby our guest house.

 We saw Starbucks, and lots of big food chain outlets at the supermarkets. 

We got lost on our way back T_T and spent lots of time around the area but couldnt find our house

So when we reached, we were super tired and they were waiting for turns for hot water bath

All of a sudden, there was no electricity and the whole guest house was pitch black

And Shin was bathing.. haha. he was the last one

Due to it being dark, we couldnt see a thing and decided to wait

He thought we purposely off his lights and was calling for us not to fool him

He called and hello-ed but no one answered his pleas. 

Pity him but we couldnt stop laughing... haha 

2nd morning in Bali.. =)

We woke up super early to see the beach before breakfast

They said its just like a poster. Did you agree? :) 

They took many shots of kungfu fighting in the air. They were geng. Haha. 

Anyway

Group photo :) 

Back for breakfast and departure :) 

Group picture again before departure 

This time, we observed the surroundings carefully so that we wouldnt get lost again that night

Off for shopping for souvenirs in Sukawati in which we got Bali tshirts for everyone :) 

However, the journey there on bike took a long time.. 

They were great at bargaining lol couldnt help but feel sorry though

Cz actually what they sold was ad cheaper than what we could find in Malaysia

But we kept bargaining and they had no choices but to accept our negotiations

Their profit margins were sure to decrease. Sorry, but we were students on a budget trip

Hopefully by buying in bulk, you guys would feel better :) 

Some local delicacies for lunch :) 

Actually there was a bakso picture too but i wonder where it went =.=

Next destination, to Tanah Lot to watch sunset

Full of tourists..

And of cz, the sunset was breathtaking.

Group picture of our tattoo ! XD

In Tanah Lot on the way up :) 

Yay dinner time.. 

Local cuisines :) 

Omelette-- called something else but couldnt recall

Fish XD

Vegetable XD

Fish XD 

Chicken, if not mistaken

Fish XD

Back at the guesthouse earlier than ystdy and guess what?

Once again, there's a blackout

And it happened while Shin was bathing again~ hahaha

But this time, he didnt dare to call us

But anyway, we were laughing 

And for the consecutive nights, we didnt dare to bathe while he was in the bathroom lol

Good morning Bali day 3 xD 

They went to the local market early and bought us some local breakfast XD

And we were writing postcards to one another

They wanted to post them on the way to Ubud

Later in the morning, we surrendered our bikes and turned to cars yay

And we left for another town for another 3 days and 2 more nights

To be continued =)
