I woke up one morning and opened the shutters to our room and was surprised to find a man on the balcony!
Blending in with the trees
We are really missing our annual trip to Bali, maybe sometime later this year
Love Bali, we literally just posted on Kuta, Bali today. Have you been to any temples and any crazy Monkey Forests? LOL Those marques monkeys are the crazies little jerks. haha Your hotel has very nice views. What was you favorite thing in Bali? Also, I saw you were commenting on ohw they are doing without tourism, that was my question too! And the pollution…I do wonder if some of the beaches cleaned up as well, that would be nice. We saw dirty diapers at one of the beaches we were at. Ugh.

Hi Marlena nice to meet you
We went years ago to see the monkeys, not my favourite animal! We have been to Kuta but it’s too touristy and as you say the beaches are very dirty. I prefer Nusa Dua with the lovely beach and manicured gardens
As soon as the borders open here we will definitely go back

So you always stay at the same hotel in Bali? What area is this in? I have a cousin who impresses upon me that there is so much more to Bali than the tourist spots.

Not always the same hotel but usually Nusa Dua as it’s not to far from the airport. We should explore other areas but because the traffic is so bad it’s great to leave Perth in the morning and be on the beach in the afternoon. Nusa Dua is just so well manicured for want of a better word!

I can imagine its beautiful gardens. I had no idea the traffic in Bali was bad.

I think that is why my friend broke her leg, she stepped in a road puddle at night.

The heat is a killer I know ..that’s what afternoon siestas are for under an umbrella on the beach
My hubby loves the heat and will go for long walks in it 🥵

I stayed at the Nusa Dua too, how about that? But it was about ten years ago I think on my second trip to Bali, first was about 40 years ago! Lovely island and lovely people but I find as I get older the heat agrees with me less. PS. I never work up to find a handsome gardener on my balcony though!

I am so with you on not coping with the heat @Maristravels. That is one reason I haven’t visited Bali despite it being very close to home.

Thank you for sharing this photo for the Challenge! This looks like quite the place! Is it a resort? Looks like you have a wonderful garden view and you have your own gardener too! Do you always stay at the same place?
