Well as per usual, the plan of leaving Australia in good time faltered at the last minute. Why is it that several glasses of wine makes you believe that you can wake up at 6 in the morning and pack your bag with enough time to get the bus? Every time it happens but I never learn. Still luckily for me the bus from Kings Cross to Sydney was a little late and I made it to the Airport on time and caught my flight to Christchurch. So country number 11.....what's it al...

"I really think I'm only going to spend 2 nights in Kuta, it's to commercial to hang around in for long and I want a proper experience of Bali". These were my words not 1 week ago but I was found in the same bar with the same friends saying exactly the same things 5 days later!
