bali (again)

for the past 3 weeks I have been in Bali! it is totally awesome! I went to 4 different hotels in 4 very different places. one was on an extremely busy surfing beach that I absolutely love and where I learned to body board. the second place was on an island called lembongan. it is an hours boat ride from Bali and was really cool. it is really good for snorkeling and body boarding without the bustle of legian (the first place that I went)the 3rd place was in a little town called amed which is very non touristy. it was more like a fishing village with a lot of little villas where people can stay. we stayed at this one place that was run by this lady that bought it when the rupiah doubled or something and so she bought this place in legian and turned it into a hotel. it was very much made for older people who wanted quiet. this place had some really good snorkeling. the next place we went was in an island attached to the mainland sort of like Granville island in Vancouver. its called nusa dua. this place was very busy and we ended up going to legian and a place where our friends were staying that was also in nusa dua called the novotel. this place wass really good for sitting and getting burnt. more detail later with more pics:) ttys
