The crew is in Bali and SV Villa G is in Singapore. We flew down 3 days ago. Bali is having flight disruptions again. This time due to a volcano on nearby Lombok Island. We were lucky and the winds were moving the plumb away from Bali and our flight operated. Late, but much better than cancelled! We were on Air Asia. The head flight attendant was Ms Maria Marguerita whose Indonesian has a Spanish accent. We were on a flight with here last July from Darwin to Bali too. Who could forget an Indonesian name like that?
We spent two nights in Kuta so that we could go shopping with Roland looking for doors for Villa Cengkeh. We can recommend staying at the Fontana Hotel on Jl Dewi Sri. It is designed by the reknown Balinese architect Popo Danes. You can get a great deal there in the off season and it is very convenient for shopping. We were successful is finding the doors we needed and have now gone over to the Lovina area and are staying in Kalibukbuk at Sari House. A nice guest house operated by Ibu Ketut (+65 877 6258 8191). It is only 50 meters from Buda Bakery and Restaurant which has great meals, sandwiches, salads, pastries and homemade ice cream. Ginger and lemongrass are our favorites.
There are always fascinating things to see on the trip over to Lovina from Denpasar.
