We had breakfast on the balcony by the pool again, the food was delicious and we ate up quickly in anticipation for our 10am pick up, which was prompt and we were swept away to our first activity. We were off to a temple that had a natural spring running in it that disturbed the sand and made pretty patterns along the floor. There was a also an enormous koi pond outside that we spent some time at, trying to spot the biggest fish there - which turned out to be a l...

It was another 10am pick up, so Edd and I got up and ordered tea and coffee for our balcony. We then all set off showering and packing up as we were moving hotels today, but also had to breakfast before we set off. The food took unusually long to arrive, but we had ordered juices that weren't on the menu, which meant they had to be specially made. Everything was delicious and we managed to finish just in time, heading back to our rooms, doing one last sweep of th...

It was another tea and coffee on the balcony start - the sun was shining onto the balcony of mine and Edd's room and we all sat and basked in it at 8.20am like cats.

I then walked back to our room and continued to tidy up (I know right, me tidy?!) by putting our clothes and things in the cupboards.Edd's dad then k...

I got up at 5.30am and woke Edd up, we could check in and go to the mini city to find more comfortable seats to sleep on. We repacked our bags, which turned out to not be a mission at all, and Edd considered the outside pockets of his large backpack, concerned that we were going to Indonesia and the pockets did not lock - what if someone tried to smuggle something in one of them and he got caught and shot. He opened them up to see what was already inside and whip...
