nusa dua beach view

Image
Huff…..after couple days of rain finally I managed to get some pictures when I visit nusa dua beach. You know, the beach is quite famous among the tourist. Maybe it is equal to the infamous Kuta Beach. The visitor are mostly tourist or people who are in vacation in Bali. Not very much locals go here. The locals will either choose Kuta or Sanur because Nusa Dua Beach is actually quite far from Denpasar. So the visitor are either guest from nearby hotel or tourist who are in Vacation in Bali. The beach is so peaceful and beautiful. There is no crowd like in Sanur or Kuta so we can enjoy the beach with more relax. The sand are white and soft, it is nice to lay down on the sand and enjoy the sun light. The place is actually pretty and clean, eventhough there are some dirt but it will not affect your relaxing moment as they are far from the spot as you can see on the picture we provide here. Not only it is for tourism and relaxing purpose, Nusa dua beach is also liked by the fisherman....

early fireworks and trumpet sounds

Bali is now celebrating I am not very clear about what are they celebrating but if you are now in Bali, then you will understand what i mean. Everywhere we can hear trumpet sound , we can see firework splashed on the night sky as Bali is celebrating something . On christmas eve or new year eve off course you can hear trumpet sound at all over places in Bali and also fireworks . It almost like a festival, a very big festival. Some streets like Legian or some on Kuta are closed for cars. The security will be very tight, but thanks for that we can enjoy all the crazies with secure feeling. Where is the best spot to enjoy the celebrations? Almost everywhere! You can enjoy the parties on Sanur , there will be so much entertaining event there, or in Kuta , this is the best spot i think but be careful of the crowd, you can also enjoy the celebratio n in Canggu , you know almost 20 % of the residence is Tourist , can you believe that ? Usually there will be so much artist performing ...

living on a village in bali

Now is the time to talk a little about live in Bali . These past few days i back to my home town, it is in a village very near to Denpasar. At the time in my hometown, the people there are preparing for galungan day. They setting up penjor, making up the Pura with kamen, and make so many "ketupat". They are so busy to prepare "lawar" and "babi guling" or "pork roll". During these time i try to collect pictures from my surrounding and will share it for you. May be one of you interested to see how is the live in Bali looks like.   The road is very small. It can only passed by two cars. If more than that, one of the car should come inside somebody's yard so the other car can pass. But outside of that the live in the village is so calm and peaceful. We can go to see river with its clean water. But at the time i didn't go to the river. And there very wide rice field. The minus point here is the people isn't understand about sanit...

canoeing on merthasari beach, sanur

Image
My trip this time only got to the beach of Merthasari Sanur. Every week here will be very crowded place visited by families on their holiday. They will swim with their children, canoeing, or just relax and lay on clean and soft sand. In certain seasons, for example in June until August, at this place frequently held festivals. Such as kites and culinary festivals. Visitors will be very crowded arriving at these seasons. We left quite early this morning, around 8 o'clock. Apparently the place is already crowded with people who are enjoying their holiday. Luckily, we still have a place for rest and put our bags and then canoeing. We rented 2 canoes, each of it cost us IDR 20,000, or approximately USD $ 2 for 3 hours. Oh .. sorry sorry, I forgot to inform you of this location. Quite easily actually to reach this beach. You simply run along the path of by pass Sanur which direct to Ngurah Rai by pass. Look to your left side and then you will find a board that reads "welcom...
