Day 1. if you dont like it don't read it :0
Bit of background, Travelling is Mum, Dad & 14yr old daughter.
We always make sure we leave Bali with about 1million rp so that when we come back we are not trying to change or get money straight away.
Left Darwin airport Thursday 22nd April at 1930.
Landed at Denpasar airport 2025. Plane came to a stop and we waited whilst they opened doors etc. Stepped off the plane at 2034, Payed VOA in US $$ at new VOA counters, 4 cashiers, one line. VIP service was still operating. Next into the immigration line. Only 3 operating but within a matter of seconds 2 more lines open up. Nothing to declare, no luggage to collect, we only take carry on luggage, so we are out the door, paid for the taxi and on our way by 2046! Gotta be happy with that! :) Arrive at Beach Melati Apartments 2112 to a warm welcome. We are here!
Check in, drop our bags, organise a big bottle of water for the room and off to La Monde diagonally across the road for our first Satays and Bintang.
Taxi from airport to Legian 55,000rp.
3x Beef satays, 2 large Bintangs & 1 sprite 195,000rp
Exchange on street at Kodak shops 8200
Weather warm and clear.
