Summer Travel Experience To Bali – Day 4 Finale

        Deluxe Cottage

Here comes our final day in Bali. After 3 joyful days in exploring this magnificent island of Indonesia, we were going to leave Bali and back to Malaysia on this day. Before our departure time of 2:20pm, what could still be done for these last minutes?      Grafitti

Well, we did our final shopping session! We called it last minute souvenir hunting. Considering the check-in luggage weight allowance of 7kg per person, we have some balance of 8kg to fill up with apart from our clothing luggage. TRAVEL TIPS: ALWAYS JUDGE OR ESTIMATE YOUR LUGGAGE WEIGHT CAREFULLY BEFORE BUYING ANYTHING JUST TO MAKE SURE THE CHECK-IN LUGGAGE, IF POSSIBLE, IS STILL WITHIN THE LIMIT OF AIRLINES ALLOWANCE. Then we were off to grab, after our wonderful buffet breakfast at Kuta Seaview (Oh come on, again!?). We went back to Gang Poppies Road where we could find whatever we need to buy. Two hours later, we returned to our resort with all our hands fully occupied, with souvenirs! 🙂

          Souvenir ShopWe packed our luggage carefully with extra protection wrapping to those fragile items that we bought, just to make sure no damage would be happened during air travel (Unfortunately, my lovely glass mosaic plate still broken during our flight 🙁 ). At 12 noon, it was time to say Goodbye to Kuta Seaview Cottage. In order not to regret in future, we take some photos of our deluxe cottage and the main entrance of the resort, and then there were those guys hanging outside of the resort trying to sweet-talk and persuade us to join a time sharing vacation programe by giving away digital camcorder for free! (you could see these guys sitting beside me in the photo) Would you believe that? I did not expect such fraud in Bali… 🙁

          Deluxe CottageAnother Rp50,000 for a taxi to the Ngurah Rai international airport, we reached the airport almost 2 hours ahead of the departure time in order not to repeat our mistake when we came here. But is it ironic or what, ‘Dang Dang! Dang Dang!’, I received a SMS through the local INDOSAT network. It was from Air-Asia and it said: “CORRECTION! AirAsia Flight AK901 from Denpasar(BALI) to KUL(LCCT) on 24MAY08 is now RETIMED to 4.20pm(1620hrs). For info please call 60386604343 or 60387754000.” ‘Gosh!! How could this be happened!’ Our flight to Malaysia has been delayed again for almost 2 hours! And it was last minute change and we were already inside departure hall! The most funniest part of all was, AirAsia was expecting all fliers to have their mobile phone International-Roaming-Service activated!?

       Kuta Seaview Cottage   Unexpectedly, we needed to wait for almost 3 hours after checking in, and we made a terrible mistake. Some international airports have limited stores and shops beyond the boarding gate, so we expected the same in Ngurah Rai International Airport. But it is not! BALI or NGURAH RAI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT has one of the largest duty free shopping plaza at 2nd floor after the boarding checkpoint! TRAVEL TIPS: ALWAYS STUDY THE AIRPORT LAYOUT OF YOUR DESTINATION CITY BEFORE YOUR TRAVEL IN ORDER TO MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHERE YOU COULD DO WHAT AND GET WHAT IN THE AIRPORT. So we continued our souvenir hunting….

Three hours later at 7:20pm, we saw our LCCT airport, hmm… not actually, because it was too hazy, but at least I could still feel it….. 🙂 And it wraps up our unforgettable 4-day-Summer Travel Experience to Bali. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I and my wife do. Please feel free to comment should you have any travel tips to share with our readers. – Travel Feeder.com
