Howzit. Well, just finishing my time in Bali and half way through the 2nd country on tour - Indonesia.
Began March 4th out from Seoul, Korea after doing a runner from the land lady cause she wanted me to pay for the refridgerator I sold even though I had bought it.
Went to the Philippines for a short stop over(wish I'd planned longer but I'll be back) in Sabang. Our Seoul captain Ted's home away from home away from home. Not so impressed there. I think it's more for an older crowd but had a few good nights on the juice - one on the local rum which killed me the next day. Went for a dive and keep checking under the rocks for crayfish n stuff but I guess it has all been over fished. Not a bad dive but was kinda expecting more. Check out one of the many girlie bars - as you do - and was only interested in one girl who, it turned out, had her boyfriend sitting round the stage from me. After 4 days doing nothing there I headed to Indonesia.
Jakarta airport is amazing. Most beautiful I've ever seen (I hear Jakarta city is s*** but I'll let you know after I've been through). Flew from there to Bali and was picked up by my friend Angie (those of you in Korea may know her from the chicks rugby team). She hooked my up with a sweet place to stay in her mum's BnB and I based myself there for a week while checking out the local stuff. Bali is real nice; the beaches are sweet, of course, though I'd still go the Cove at home, if it had the surf and babes like here. Went down to the southern tip to see Uluwatu - a Hindu temple - and it was amazing. Set right out on the edge of this cliff with sun and surf all around. A must see. Also went inland to see Bisakh - another temple on the side of a volcano. It was cloudy and couldn't get a shot of the temple with the volcano behind. Same day went to see Kintamani - a volcano within a massive older volcano(check it out once I post the photos). Got in some good waves and burns and then headn further east to the Gili islands. Really nice snorking and lots of drugs - thou I didn't partake. Feed a 1mtr long turtle while snorkling and it bit me - like a door closing on your finger. Swam around with another but couldn't get them to tow me. Was there for 5days then came back here - Bali - on Good Friday and got sick. Bali belly apparently. Sweats, chills, etc etc. Over it now (went to Tanah Lot today - another temple on a small island just off the coast) and off to Java tomorrow. Hope it's not raining.
