Hi All - travel dates approx 19Jan 2005 - 2Feb 2005
NEXT WEEK
New to forum but originally travelled Bali in 80's when dirt roads.
I am coming up with hubby + 2 girls 10 and 131/2. I went up in Jan 2001 but stayed very cheaply at Bali Coconut Legian. We have now booked BaliMandira and I am sooooooooooooooooo excited!!!!
Hubby and I like the odd chat ( thats why we like the forum) so plan on going to find the S and S meeting spot in Legian. Would like to meet some of you most interesting characters in person.Anyone there same time we are.
A few questions if possible to you wonderful forumites.
1.Would it be possible to get a tailor to make a couple of runners and square chair covers from material I bring up with me or will they think I am weird. Also anyone have any ideas on cost.
2. My sister- in - law wants me to find some material ( blue/yellows ) to have a throw cover made for her 2 seater couch. Possible ? and best place to find such material - also cost.
3.Shoes - any good suggestions for getting 2 BIGFOOT girls some winter boots made and approx cost....short boots.
4.ART - My friends bought a couple of nice Bali artworks home...any suggestions on places to see these.
5.I have read the Forum and some people seem to shop in Denpasar...I am a bit wary of doing this by myself...what things are availble there but not in Kuta/Leg etc.
6. Homewares - soft furnishings ....runners, bedspreads..water fountains...Bali furniture ....I bought a nice kind of teapot in Kuta last time ... anybody up there who can give assistance.
7.What is best supermarket to visit for snacks own beer. We are going to bring own wine ....chateau de cardboard.
8.Best and most reasonable spas - costs.
9.Any recommendations for a Hi speed internet cafe...are some better than others and cost.
10.We hope to visit a couple of nice restaurants but with 2 teenagers we would like some good cheaper ones for evening meals...budget but nice.
Cannot think of any more questions but will post again if necesary.
