Woke up to find ourselves on a beautiful Balinese beach – it had been too dark to see much when we arrived last night. After breakfast we went for a swim in the ocean. There were big waves and lots of surfers but unfortunately also a mean rip tide. Some friendly surfers saw our distress and gave us a lift back in on their surfboards.
After such a harrowing experience we treated ourselves to a coconut oil massage from two ladies on the grass in front of our hotel. They charged us $1.25 for just under ½ hour. Next time I’m going for the hour. Stress relief – they have such strong hands.
We took the shuttle bus to the town of Kuta and drank a pineapple drink – but not as nice as at Lake Toba. I tried to bargain for a swimsuit on the beach but ended up not buying anything. We met the German couple from our river trip at Taman Nagara, Malaysia, who had just arrived last night too. Saw a Balinese traditional dance and went to sleep in paradise..
