2011-10-03 Bali: Day 7 - Padangbai
Daddy's Birthday! We gave Daddy our presents in Lovina today - really nice. Daddy felt so much better than he did yesterday, which is great! We paid the bill, and everyone came out to say goodbye to us! Mahmood, his wife, the boy and girl helper. We had a 3 hour drive to Padang Bai along the coastline. Strange to see no sculpture places, very different and some amazing padi fields and scenery. We stopped briefly to swap seats, and we left all our stuff with our driver. We only realised after that he could have driven off and we would have been left with nothing - he was a nice man, and we trusted Kemang.
We got a room in a nice place for one night and booked our boat for the next day. We had a TV which was funny, and went for a very late lunch, which was even later as they forgot about our order. We kept ourselves busy by playing on the musical instruments. Bruchetta, pizza, toast and spaghetti.
We walked to the Blue Lagoon beach over the hill and went round the rock pools. We did some dares, then as Roxy was walking into a rock cave, Aiysha spotted a snake with blue, white and black stripes. Pretty scary stuff! Took some photos and checked it was still alive, which it was! We all got a closer look, well, Mummy didn't, and then went to the other side of the beach where Aiysha did more gymnastics.
We headed back, watched some TV and rugby world cup roundup (some great matches). Didn't feel too hungry so went to Ozone for ice cream and pizza and lots of games of Pit sitting on our low table. Watched a lame survival program while drinking cocktails, and fell asleep exhausted.
Perfect birthday just being on holiday with the girls!
