Hi folks me again with another long winded self indulgent instalment!
Already the sleep ins have started, up at 9.30, shower and down to breakfast. Usual buffet at the Rama Bridge. Grabbed the Herald Sun for 45,000rp to read at breakfast. I thought at that price he would have read it to me .
After breakfast down to Poppies II to the laundry, dropped of the clothes, raided the LIPPO ATM and then into a taxi and off to Makro. I love this place!!! We are going to our friends family compound the next day so wanted some gifts for the children.

Walked out with all our bags and thought,"Hope we can get a Taxi?" Well the driver we had used to get there, had waited outside in the sun, no meter, just waited. Taxi back to the hotel, lunch at Stadium and arranged with Ayu for our lift the next day!
Needed some more shirts so over to see another friend in the Kuta Market. Ketut owns shop 152 and we are also passed the stage of bargaining and I got 3 t-shirts for 60,000rp.
Time for a massage so I head down to the little massage place in Kuta square next to Dulang. Upstairs nice and tranquil, mellow music. Head, neck and arm massage 50,000rp for 50mins, Yummy! Now the massage was cheap, but while I was in there Amanda headed out to shop the strip! She got a Billabong shirt (not whispered) 265,000rp and Roxy pants 420,000rp.
After massage and a couple of Bintangs at Dulang we head over to Roxy and buy Ayu a collared Roxy shirt for 235,000rp. Drop all her purchases off at the room and head down to Discovery!
Grab some bread to try from Breadtalk, Yummy! Very sweet and light bread, Amanda wasn't impressed but I loved it especially washed down with a caramel Frappacino from Starbucks!
Back to room for a Bintang and cool down for a while.
Head out to dinner at TJ's via the beach rd. Stop at Hardrock shop and buy a Baseball and stand 45,000rp for her brothers bar! Onto dinner. I love Mexican food and I think TJ's do it well. We always eat here at least once. I had Flaurat, combination plate and then the Mango cheesecake. If you love your sweets this cheesecake is a MUST!!!!!! Amanda had chicken Fahitas.
Slow walk back via the Matahari. Now I mention the next bit much to Amanda's embaressment, but I found it amusing. We forgot to pack condoms so stopped in to get some. On the docket at Matahari they list as Swim Accessories
Walked down Tuban way taking a few night snaps with the Pentax and then back to the room for a duty free Baileys Nightcap!
