The partner of the owner of Patricks restaurant told me that the owner of the land that the new 5* hotel beside Adika Sari also owns the land back to the Sinar Bali and the land that Poko Loko is on. He said the next development will be on the land between the new building and Sinar Bali and when the lease for the Poko Loko expires in 5 years time it will also be developed. I also found out that Niksoma has purchased Mahata and the staff are devastated, because it will be shut down and Niksoma will extend over it.
Weather is good, but tending to be overcast, with a pleasant cooling breeze. Exchange rate still 8000 plus, how much plus depends on your bravery to match wits with the wily money changers.
