Well where do I start. I think that I hate being back in cold miserable melbourne. Flight out on Jetstar was delayed due to FOG in miserable Melbourne. Not their fault, we spent the night at the Formular 1 Motel at Melbourne Airport, not flash but very clean and a hilarious start to our holiday as we had a 6.00am flight thought this would be easier and were already in Holiday mood when we found out we were being delayed. Jetstar were great it wasn't their fault but all passengers got a $100.00 voucher and free food, so I don't think anyone could complain.

VOA was very slow don't think they were quite expecting our flight and things moved very slowly thru VOA and Immigration, Customs was a breeze and we walked out the doors to be greeted by Mira whom I am sure you will all know by past postings.

We had been in contact with Mira the day before to let her know of our delay and she had done a great job cancelling a room at the Puri Raja. What can I say her service was great, transport fantastic and prices much better then what the Puri Raja had on their printed brochure.

We loved the hotel the staff were fantastic, and the location was great within walking distance of Kuta and all the great Legian spots.

Spent 2 nights on Nusa Lembongan travelled both ways by the speed boat and stayed at Coconuts resort. Rooms and view were great but were not happy with the Bar Staff they were rude and with the resort up for sale did't think they were doing the owners any favours. We felt they were ripping people off with Happy Hour drinks and watering down spirits so be wary if you go there. Their office and ground staff were friendly, pleaseant and very helpful.

More to come in next few days
