If you are walking down Melasti St towards the beach turn right at the beach rd.
After a couple of minutes walk you will see a small life savers building between the Legian Beach & Mandira hotels. Right opposite this there is a pathway to the beach which you walk down. On the left is a new lifeguard looking tower & an old rusty one in front of it.
Looking at the water turn right & in front of a clump of trees there are a couple of ice boxes & umberellas with some Balinese beach sellers sitting around.
This is Sammy & Susys section of the beach.
The two of them are easy to notice as most of the time they wear hats with their names on them.
Also you will find tourists there who are mainly posters from this BTF.Sometimes only a couple but other times crowds of fifty plus
For years now we have been meeting there from around 4pm onwards to share a few Bintangs & swap stories of our experiences in Bali.
If you ask S or S to have a look at the photograph album you will be able to put faces to names of people who have been a part of the BTF the past seven or more years.
Have your photos taken also & put the prints in the book for more people to look at in the future.
There are also more beach sellers there who will help you out with watches, clothing, massages, hair braiding, wood carvings, chips, cigarettes etc etc
Its not really pressure selling as they will leave you alone when asked.
You will have a great time there watching a beautiful sunset.
Bring you duty free along & use their mixers.
I will be there tomorrow evening around 5pm.
