Flew both ways with Garuda in what appeared to be new aeroplanes, on time and no problems. Flight back was only half full, plenty of empty rows to stretch out on. Arranged VIP with a very reliable provider, just as well because we lobbed in behind a Jumbo from Taiwan which was obviously packed, only two desks working and in all honesty of all the times we've been it was without doubt the longest and slowest queue we had ever seen. Lovely to be out in about ten minutes. Talk about a mess and delays. If you are off to Bali a wonderful welcome awaits you once you are out onto the airport concourse, what a mess!
Won't go into details and spoil it for you, just that it takes longer to get out of the car park with the building going on than it does to get through immigration and customs and take it from me there is no VIP service to get you through, there was, but somebody obviously wasn't getting enough in the back pocket.
Did a side trip for three days to KL to have a look at a new one year old grand daughter, absolutely drop dead gorgeous, blonde hair, blue eyes which she obviously got from her grand mother and certainly not from the bottle blonde bimbo of a mother who barracks for Collingwood.
Checked into Novotel TB around 7pm, lovely, great welcome, familar faces and greetings everywhere, didn't check in, didn't check the room, didn't unpack as there were a couple of minutes left before happy hour finished, just made it for a couple. Over the road for some tucker, more welcome homes, more greetings, just love it !
More later if you want it which could include, herself getting locked out on the balcony and being topless. Me upsetting half a dozen cab drivers. A ride on the Sarbegita bus. Me taken aside for suspected shop lifting in KL. Trips to the orphanage in Amlapura, and to Penglipuran, Tampak Siring, Kintamani Lake Batur and Buahan. Plus a big wrap for a voluteer system.
Please yourselves, see if I care !
