Crowdy Beach

AS Bali is known for its beautiful beaches, it is first priority for all incoming visitors I think. Other than beaches, there are other attraction that make Bali a popular tourist destination in the world. Bali has so many centuries old Hindu temples to be appreciated for all visitors. The night life are heaven for those who love clubbing and always packed with westerners. I asked driver how long do we need to explore the whole Bali island and he replied minimum a week. We got 2 nights 3 days from which only Saturday can be used the whole day for sight seeing. Hence, I need to carefully study and decide where should we go visit as time is extremely limit for us.

On Friday, it was evening around 5:00pm when we check in our hotel at Legian. Luckily our hotel is just 200m away from Legian beach and it took us about 10min to walk down there. We took a rest for a few minute and get out of room for beach. It is relatively crowd on beach. People going here and there. Some are playing on the beach while some are sipping their cups of beer. Some enjoy makeshift on-stage holo guitar show on beach. Some keep busy with taking photograph while some looking at surfer who are riding on the waves. Waves are sometime relatively big and make Legian beach turn wild. Some playing in the water while others swimming in and out. As we reach sunset time, we had no time to swim and we only took some photo and take a walk along the beach until we feel tiresome.

It was dark when we feel tired and hungry on the beach. There are a lot restaurants along the beach and most of them are crowd with customers who enjoy their drinks. The wind are cool and fresh coming across the sea. The neon light started to light the beach up. We decided to back road to avoid unnecessary accident by robbery. We don't feel secure on beach because beach light are not adequate to see clearly. As we feel hungry, we tried to find a good restaurant with local foods. We find it difficult to find because most of them are selling beers and related foods. Finally, we chose one to feed our hungry stomach. The shop is crowded with Westerners and a staff gave us a painting set for our baby girl. We ordered some local foods that look delicious. First time in Indonesia, we are not sure if the foods are as good as its price. We're waiting for our foods come in but it took longer than we think.
