Bali - day three and four We had to move rooms to less nice one but its still lovely, near the pool and some nature. Nik got up at the crack of dawn and watched the sunrise so he is into nature today. He watched the bats kill things and then go to sleep. He has been taking photographs of the amazing plant life and lizards. He also took a pic of a statue and the camera said 'did someone blink?' - we hope not! (for all you Doctor Who fans out there!)

We opted for melon, followed by sausage and eggs and toast (apparently, american breakfast - Indonesian, which is rice, and Continental, which is toast only, were all available).

We're sat on our balcony planning the next couple of days, its about 29 degrees and switching between sun and thunderstorms. We have also just watched an excellent lizard climbing a palm tree, Nik has named him Sid. This makes the journey worth it. But to return to the beginning, lets review our brief Bangkok visit. We failed to get a BA upgrade despite our bes...
