Miss the Time We Had in Bali ..Last Year's Winter :-D

This Winter..we're not planning on going back home to Indonesia....ㅠㅠ

That's why upon looking back at our pictures..we found these pictures...when we spent our time in Bali. 

Well..who would not want to spend a tropical getaway in Bali?

And..it's winter...in Seoul. I think it'd be nice to enjoy the warmth of the tropical paradise even for just a week.

Like what we did in our last year's trip to Bali Bird Park. 

A great outing, indeed.

in a lush green tropical park like this one.... 

or..got lost in the Monkey Forest...  

deep into the jungle...

exploring the temples...

relaxing on the beach..

and...walking @ Bali Beach Walk... 

 

All memories...remain ....and what a great 'winter' vacation in the tropics:-)

Kuta Beach Walk, Bali

We're back to Kuta Beach Walk after having spent an afternoon on the beach. Since it's already night time, we saw different facade of the mall...not quite what we experienced during the day. 

Once again, though it may look modern, the essence of it all was still a traditional feel of Balinese style. 

Let's take a pose to capture the moment, gals.  

taking a pic in front of the bright lights lo the stores along with the dangling green plants.... 

me, too...me, too.  

The girls found frangipani flowers fell off from the trees....they picked them up and got an idea of floating them on a pond. 

I wonder where they got the idea of doing that...but I guess it's a cool thing to do while waiting for guide to pick us up. 

Eyra, too, was also taking her chance of floating her newly found frangipani. 

It's simple and free...and the girls found their way of having fun. 

So this is what it looked like when the night sky loomed in. 

Just a few meters away from the sandy beach, Beach Walk really caters the need of anyone who wants to have a relaxing time in Kuta. 

Thanks, Putu for taking the picture. 

Now, we're ready to go to the airport.:-)

Kuta Beach

 

It passed sunset time..and yet we did not move from the beach. All of our luggage were in the car and most of them are at the airport so we did not have any clothes to change..:) and no hotel to go to...since we got to wait for another 5 hours before our plane departed to Korea. 

So..we stayed put at the beach and let the girls play with the sand. 

gosh..we must've been crazy to let them play with the sand though we knew for sure that we got to wait until we arrived at the airport to change our clothes:-)

But..that's the road trip or transit trip we had in Bali.

Kuta Beach (part 1)

 

Finally, a family picture again @ Kuta Beach. Hmm..the cloudy afternoon let us spend the afternoon without any sunset picture:-) but, that's fine. 

We could still enjoy the beach, though. 

What I mean by 'WE" is Freya and Eyra who were busy playing with the sand. 

and..they did not stop playing....though they knew that they had no clothes to change. 

but...she did not budge. 

Freya was even more serious in playing in the sand. 

And the dusk set in. 

Still..they didn't even budge or bother...getting up to go. Gosh....

Bali Beach Walk @ Kuta

For those who want to escape the hustle bustle of Kuta and its beach, one could just hop into this luxurious mall: Bali Beach Walk. Just look at that...I love the concept already. 

An open restaurant where people could chill out in open space...and go there at night...I'm sure the ambiance would've been much more spectacular. 

Once again...Eyra and Freya were always playing around whenever they had time. 

Well...it's a good thing that this mall is not like any other mall we've been to. It's really more like a modern-touch wrapped in a traditional Balinese house--but in huge scale. 

even the rooftop is full of flowers and walkways where we could see sunset from atop.  

Once again...this feels like a different world in Kuta.

Admiring the architectural design that makes it a winning spot among visitors. fancy store, restaurants, cineplex, and other you-name-it-you-got-it.  

Beyond..Kuta bach is visible. Gosh..I wish my camera could capture the simple beauty that the mall offers. The only drawback is that...most of the stuffs are pricey. hahaha. 

But..since we just wanted to chill out here..and explore what the fuzz this mall has created...I give it 4 stars out of 5.^^ 

wait...Freya...what are you doing? ^^ 

Oh..this is a local transportation to take tourists of large groups (those using buses) from the parking lot to Kuta beach. (note: buses are not allowed to enter Kuta area so as to avoid traffic congestion).
