Bali Trip Day 3

The third day of our trip kicked off with the same breakfast by the villa balcony. We ordered banana pancake and amazingly it tasted great! It was a blend of oriental and western taste. Simple breakfast, but we were satisfied and filled.

After breakfast we went out to start our touring journey as early as 9am! Our first destination of the day was another beautiful rice terrace spot nearby Ubud. Too bad we're here when the rice had been harvested, no greenish or yellowish view of the field but it was still beautiful. We admire the art of the terrace structures much.

- The viewing huts, for perfect panorama view -

After spending approximately an hour here, we proceed to the next destination.. Kintamani! Kintamani is the most favorite tourist destinations in Bali with the active volcano of mount Batur and beautiful lake. Kintamani is surrounded by the captivating nature and there are six ancient villages around cauldron of Batur Lake. Mount Batur is located at Kintamani and it has erupted about 24 times since year 1800 and still active up to now.

After visiting the 2 hot spots, we decided to slow down and take a slow stroll around the island to experience the true Bali. With the jeep we rented, uphill and downhill we go.. north and south.. and came by lots stuff we seldom see in KL.. we visited some hotels, trusting the architecture would awe us.. All these.. are trademarks of Bali..

- Heavenly scene -

- Infinity pool -

- Romantic dinner set-up -

- Artistic sculptures -

- Unique culture (offering to god left on the floor)

We really love everything bout Bali, slowly experiencing the beauty and specialty of it.. was a great great getaway. Something we longed for. Called it a day and had dinner at a stall near hotel. The food was so-so, a bit off-taste for me. Nevertheless, just for the sake to try the local food. :)

W.O.T.P SPA Signing

*Taking a break from writing bout the wedding, since we have not received the photos yet* We have secured the purchase of W.O.T.P few months ago and we were too busy to settle for the Sales and Purchase Agreement signing. Finally on the 22nd of Jan, we made appointment with the lawyer to have the signing exercise at Wilson's office. Why 22nd of Jan? We did consult wofs.com's almanac to select the auspicious day for contract signing, and thus, 22nd of Jan. We were greeted with 2 big stacks of SPA papers and the lawyer slowly explain to us what were we signing on each documents. The lawyer is a little blur in her explanation but nevertheless she did tell us what's essential. Well..well.. even though it's not our first time signing SPA, but it's still necessary to know what we're signing. Since the legal fees are all bear by the developer, that includes the loan agreement legal fees as well, so we simply signed both the agreements together with the devel...

Pregnancy Updates: Half way there!

I'm 20 weeks pregnant now! It's a halfway milestone and it has been really smooth *touch wood* so far since the beginning of 2nd trimester. The vomiting and nausea seems to be gone overnight as I moved into Week 14. The very day my iPhone app congratulate me on my milestone, I felt a gush of energy rushing back to my body. And, for the first time in 3 months I felt... hungry! It was such a great feeling, I got ready to work and before heading out, I put up joss sticks to thank god for this miracle. And I kept my fingers, toes and everything crossed this feeling last. I bet my baby is a very punctual baby, just like the daddy. So with the deadly morning sickness gone, I am feeling myself again and started to enjoy the pregnancy much. My rhintis seems to get better after hubby installed the air purifier in our room and I get good sleeps every night with clear nostrils. My bump is showing and everyone is quite surprised to see a bump at just beginning of 3rd month. I research...

We woke up the next morning, feeling all fresh with the gentle cooling breeze and chirping of the birds outside the chalet. As we opened the door, we were thrilled by the tropical Bali feelings round the chalet area. These scenes were so familiar, in the movies, magazines, novels, commercials, cafes, clubs etc.. the "Bali" style; now we're experiencing it in person. - Abangan Bungalow - - Our chalet a.k.a villa - - The walkway in the hotel - - Other types of villa - We ordered our breakfast, scrambled eggs, toasts, fruits and coffee. It was a real relaxation having breakfast at the chalet balcony, looking at the greens. I love this feelings, away from hassle, away from workloads, away from problems.
