My first trip too and I fell in love with Bali! So dressed up for the plane trip, full make up ,high heels and dress and jacket!!
Seems crazy now but it was a big event to me, first time out of Australia.
The smell of the frangipanis and diesel fuel as we descended down the stairs of the plane was intoxicating.
Stayed at the Hyatt in Sanur, Still a big favourite with me but can't really afford any more.
While we we there the currency was devalued, we were in a panic as we had not a clue of how it would affect us.
The hotel prices increased the same day so it had no affect.
The cocktails at the Swastika in Sanur, amazing, not to mention my first experience of the rats!All wonderful!!
Just writing this makes my heart beat faster, can't wait to get back again. Luckily we go in August.
