Indonesia: Bali Day 7 & 8
I’d like to post something interesting regarding our time in Bali, but as I’ve shown in the pics and posts, we have just been relaxing with no real serious touristy sightseeing or activities. Our major activity the other day was getting tattoos, which deserves a post on its own, so that is coming. In the…

Indonesia: Bali Day 6
It’s too early to be counting down how many days left, but I am reminded since we moved hotels today. We are booked in the Bali Kuta Resort for the next 15 days, which will be until the end of our visit. :*( So, let’s not talk about that! Let’s talk about the good stuff.…

Indonesia: Bali Day 5
We have become creatures of the night lately and so it is rare for us to be awake before noon. However, yesterday was a slight change and so we did a little scooting around the area. Originally, we thought we might try to ride to Nusa Dua on the scooter, but the road was crazy…

Indonesia: Bali Day 3 & 4
We have found a lovely Australian hang-out to enjoy a refreshing beverage – Bali Cider! There are apparently only two locales that sell it in the area and so we have no choice but to continue to go back ….

Indonesia: Bali – Day 2
After a very late start to the day, we headed out to enjoy the beautiful sun. Our first stop was to get a scooter – then our new freedom opened up places to explore! [sthumbs=3889|3890|3891|3892|3893|3894|3895|3896|3897|3898,max,3,y,center,]

Indonesia: Jakarta – 1 & Bali – Day 1
We arrived late at night in Jakarta and did not explore or see much other than the route to and from our hotel. There wasn’t much draw for us to spend time in a big, dirty city… [sthumbs=3874|3875|3876|3877|3878,max,3,y,center,] Mostly, we were ready to get ourselves to Bali and see some sun! So, here are some…

Bangkok – 2 & 3
The second day in Thailand was quiet. We found Secret Recipe in the Siam Paragon food court. It was our regular eating locale when went to Kuching, Malaysia a couple of years ago. So, of course, we had to eat there. Then, while R went to his dental appointment I explored the shops and had…

Bangkok – 1
Most of our first of a couple short days in Bangkok was spent recovering from our lat night arrival and relaxing in the hotel. I did manage to use the treadmill, which was a nice return to getting some exercise. In the evening we headed to Siam Paragon (no pics…) on the Skytrain and had…

The Philippines (Boracay) to Thailand (Bangkok)
It was a long day of travel as we headed out of the Philippines to continue our holidays elsewhere. We booked our return flight out of the Boracay area from Kalibo instead of the closer airport, Caticlan. This involved a shuttle bus ride from the hotel to the Boracay port at the south end of…

The Philippines: Boracay Day 16
Our last full day in Boracay was a bit better than the past week or so. We spotted a bit of sunshine for our last late afternoon visit to D’Mall. Before leaving, we wanted to be sure to partake of the Mango Shake that many of the tour groups were promoting. It was no lie…
