Bali Day 7

I spent most of my final day on Bali at the zoo! Well, first I had to get there which took around 90 minutes. Lots of traffic. But the trip there was a nice opportunity to see a little more of Bali.

The zoo itself was nice and the animals seemed to be thriving and they had a fair amount of space. In places like this you tend to hear some horror stories, but it seemed to be a decent enough place.

The zoo was not huge but fine for a few hours. Not a lot of super exotic animals but always fun to see a tiger napping, half-immersed in a puddle of water, or a couple of lions having a heated argument. You could also ride an elephant but I didn’t partake.

After getting back to the hotel it was time to say goodbye to the good life of free cocktails and lounging at the beach. So I celebrated by lounging at the beach, followed by a free cocktail. Cheers!

I then returned to the dreadful Bali airport where I broke the record for how many times I had my passport checked within a short time. I also had my baggage scanned twice (with some lucky folks getting it scanned at the gate too, in case the previous two scans were not enough) — and that’s when *leaving* the fucking place! I think they have some unresolved daddy issues inside the Indonesian airport authority offices. At least the airport held a nice surprise: a mini Hard Rock Café. That’s awesome! 😮🤘

Now I am in Singapore again for the last few shenanigans before it’s back to reality again..Read more
