Well.. got back from Phuket 2 weeks ago and we were really missing Bali .. so spur of the moment Thursday night we went in and booked to go on 17 October for hubby's birthday, initially staying at Champlung Mas.
Went in yesterday, changed it to The Barong and paid .. $1360 for both of us for 6 1/2 days from Perth .. not bad I thought.
Found out that a friend of ours will be there at the same time and it's her first time there .. looking forward to catching up and introducing her to our favourite spots.
Checked with Indonesian Consultate on the visa issue, 7 days v's 30 days. They basically advised that getting the 30 day visa seeing that we actually left on the 8th day would be the best option, or risk a possible fine.
So .. the count down begins again.
