Bali Day Four

Another hotel, another all you can eat buffet breakfast. Another EggMan. More table service for coffee. Different but same. Still eggs and bacon and sausages.


This morning Mum and Dad took us into Nusa Dua to the upper market shopping complex. It is obviously set up for all of the well-to-do residents, and Bali guests who don't want to face the real shopping streets and instead have air conditioned shops to browse at their leisure. When we checked the prices of their scarves at the Bali version of David Jones, we knew we were in the wrong place. :)


After heading back for a quick dip, Helen and Mum journeyed across the road for massages while Dad and I headed back to the sports bar to watch the final AFL semi-final between Richmond and Carlton. The scene was as chaotic as it was yesterday, and another great game of footy. No doubt the girls were much happier not being there.

We moved back to our rooms after the game, and again Skyped the kids to see how their weekend had gone. After happy hour we went out to dinner again, this time to one of Mum and Dad's favourites, Coco's. As we ate our dinner (satay again for me) we were entertained by a three piece band playing lots of crowd favourites from the 60's and 70's. They even asked for requests, and when I asked for The Beatles' "Let it Be", they had no trouble in complying. They were great. Once Dad found out that the band was back on Friday he immediately enforced that we would return that night.
