Hi all
Firstly I would like to thank everyone for there kind wishes for my parents. and thankyou for encouraging me to write more as I am always unsure if I am writing what people want to hear.
Ok tonights story

Our wedding anniversary. Our Kids were unsure on what to get us for a present so they decided to all put in a shout Gary and myself to a choco romantic spa package at the Green Garden Hotel and Spa.
Well what an experience this was. Four hours of pure pleasure, Firstly we were picked up from our hotel where we were meet by our masseur's with a cold welcome drink.
We were then taken to our own little place of paradise were we had a hot spa for 15mins, followered by a sauna, which I must add got very steamy and hot. We were supposed to have 15mins in here but after about 5 I couldn't breath so we went and had a dip in the ice pool which had a waterfall in it. It was lovely to stand under it as it really was quite hard on your back. then back in the sauna to warm up and another spa.
We had our own little room that was all set up with two massage beds and because it was outdoors there were all live plants everywhere.
The ambeience was fantastic very calming with Balinese music and waterfall sounds playing.
Firstly they gave us the famous paper undies to put on but Gary said no way was he wearing them so he put them on as a hat, you can imagine the girls faces when they came back in it was hilarious .
First up was a foot bath and massage with oils and a pedicure (lovely).
Then the fun really started with a full body scrub, then a hot stone massage, followed by being covered completly from head to toe with chocolate we were left to relax like this for about 20 mins which I must admit I dozed of a few times.
They then came back in a washed of the chocolate and rubbed aromatherapy oils in all over.
They then told us to go behind a shower curtain were a beautiful flower bath was waiting for us they left us on our own for about another 15mins to relax and enjoy.
When this was over we got dressed and had hot chocolate and chocolate bicky's.
After all this we then went into a salon and had a full head massage, hair washed and moisturizers put on our hair followed by a blowdry.
I would have to say this was the best present they could of ever got us.
So if you want somthing romantic to do try this you wont be dissapointed. It was really different and very personel.
We were then taken back to our hotel where everyone was waiting for us to go have a meal.
We went to febris and had a lovely meal and drinks \. This is a great resturant, they always have entertainment and friendly staff.
Make sure you have the tomato soup I can never have enough of this bloody bagus.
We had more friends arrive today from aussie another 8 so it made quite a big party. Everyone who came to our wedding last year came back for our first anniversay so that really made it special also.
To finish of the night sent all the kids up on the slingshot you could probably hear my daughter screaming back here in Aus everyone in the street stopped all the traffic everyone just stood and watched and laughed very funny ending to a fantastic day.


Next day more shopping back to genevas and bintang supermarket for more supplies. Called into ketuts in Garlic Lane as we were out of clothes cheaper to but more than get them washed, well thats what I kept telling my husband lol. More satay's for lunch at the pub and back to the hotel for a lazy day around the pool or so we thought until the cocktail list came out.
Off to my little boyfriend at the hairdresses before going out for tea at the Staduim.Well as I wasn't allowed to bring him home with us I have to go now a do my own hair its the bloody pits.
Another thing girls to look for at the hairdresses is there silky shine spray for your hair it is not hairspray but it put a beautiful shine on your hair its only 25000rp a can fantastic stuff.
well good night back tommorrow.
Julie
