Bali

Have you ever heard the song Fields of Gold from Sting? Bali seems to be the exotic place and bla, bla, bla...

Well, I have to say that it is REALLY beautiful! Since I stepped on the island together with the 30 other foreigners up until I arrived to the terminal in Kuta (where the bomb exploded in 2002), I saw sooooooo many statues, Hindu offerings and temples, unbelievable! I really liked the island since the first time I stepped on it...

So i hunted for a hotel and I got one that wasn't too expensive considering I am alone...(For those who arecurious, about $8CAD for one night!) I met up with some friends and we shared our plans for the next couple of days! Since I had a bit of an accident (don't worry, nothing serious...It was REALLY scary, but I am safe and sound!), I restrained myself from doing things in Lombok...Wanted to snorkel, but considering 'que je suis blanche comme un drap', I would burn like there is no tomorrow!!!!

So, considering I am in the heaven of surf here in Kuta, SURFING was definitely on the agenda! I hunted for the best schools and chose one, Pro Surf School! My first lesson was with a sexy surfer called Brazil...and guess what? I stood after my second wave!!! I was so happy! I even did some tricks on the surfboard and I naturally drank more than my fair share of salt water! :S I took 2 more classes and I am able to turn...VERY happy! :P The owner of the school said I was better than average...and I thank snowboarding for that! I REALLY suggest all of you boarders to try it out...It's awesome!!! :D (The proof? I think I'll go back for 2-3 days to do a bit more surfing...hehehe!!!) I looked like this girl in the pic but maybe the wave was just a bit smaller! :)

The beaches are nice but not as nice as in Lombok...And what is annoying here in Bali is that they try to sell you EVERYTHING...A guy even tried to sell me a bow & arrows...Imagine what the customs would say if I try to bring that in to Canada...hahaha!!! But the sunsets are awesome and you can meet people from all over the world... :)

And I met awesome people there too...We went out and I am proud to say that I went to bed at 5:30am twice! It is really a nice place to go party...But beware of the sharks in the club cuz there are tons! Damn!

So when its all said and done, I saw enough of equalaterals, isoceles, pecs, abs and boobs for a little while...All the guys go topless and its just GREAT candy for the eyes!!!! Girls, you know where you are heading for your next vacation...hehehe! :P
