• Lazy beach

    22 avril 2023, Indonésie ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C

    Today was a beach day. We left our villa pretty early so we could 100% confirm we had the loft for tonight. We were unable to find other accommodation and Ella (one of our 5) had decided to leave a day early. The exhausted look on the guys face when we returned said it all. Apparently they had 15 check outs today, but 26 check ins. They had to find something for 11 people and the 4 of us were not part of that number. At this point we all felt really bad for him as apparently this happens quite often. Ramadan ending had just made it worse.

    As they couldn't house us last night they did offer us the free breakfast this morning so obviously we took that. The pancake was ok, the papaya made it better.

    After breakfast we said goodbye to Ella and hit the beach. White sand and calm waves, the paradise we were previously promised. But as Indonesia is prone to, it got hot fast so we retreated to the shade for a bit before going for a walk.

    There was a strip of beach further down that you were supposed to see turtles from, we did not succeed. So headed back to the main area for lunch. It was a bit pricey but directly on the beach was worth it.

    I got an iced tea and buddah bowl. I went proper bali bimbo. The bowl was fine but nothing special, not quite sure what the hype is. It did look very good though, all the colours.

    We then headed back to the hostel as they were supposed to have a happy hour starting at 3pm. They did not in fact have one, we are unsure why. We had this plan tot have cocktails in the pool and be boogie for a bit, but alas we did not. There was also a group of French people by the pool and they were judging us so hard. Not sure why, but they were weird. But when you live out of a backpack and sleep on a shelf, you stop caring what people think.
