Bali - Day 5

We got up a little earlier on Day 5...after another cup noodle for breakfast, we took a cab and headed towards Kuta...saw the Kuta Memorial where the bomb went off and killed many Australian tourists..and we stopped at Kuta Square where another bomb went off few years back...but luckily for us..there was no sign of any bomb when we reached there..so we walked around and checked out many shops which sold branded goods at a fraction of the original price...kind of made me wonder if those are really original...anyway, i'm not really into brands...

So we saw another Uluwatu branch in Kuta and this time we brought Becky with us...hehe, Becky fell in love with the whole shop i think...so anyway, i finally decided that i should get my white Uluwatu dress since it is made in Bali..and my sole reason of coming to Bali was to get an Uluwatu dress (yes, it has been my fashion ambition since i first saw an Uluwatu dress that was advertised in a Malaysian newspaper many many years ago; i swore to myself i would get married in that dress someday,hahaha..unfortunately i don't think they have that dress anymore)...plus it was definitely cheaper than the Boho-style one...and i even bought a pair of Uluwatu lace wedge sandals..to go with my dress..gosh...the sandals were even more expensive than the dress...so i supposed i had to forego the other dress...too bad i didn't take a pic in it...
After our shopping spree (Connie and Becky each b
ought a dress as well), we stopped by a cafe for lunch..i had Satay Lilit while Connie finally got to try out her Ayam Betutu...my satay lilit had too much bone bits in them..but otherwise, it was a pleasant meal...though i regretted ordering my drink..i asked the waitress which mocktail was nice and she introduced me to Biu Gede...which tasted like cough syrup...and ayam betutu was really just grilled chicken..nothing fancy...









Our initial plan at Kuta was to try out surfing...but unfortunately Connie sprained her ankle while shopping...i always thought that was something which would happen to me...but anyhow, our plan for surfing was thwarted by the unfortunate accident...and since it was going to be difficult to continue walking, we took a cab back to Seminyak...i think the weather must have been a little too hot coz i felt like a heatstroke setting in...i was suddenly overwhelmed with fatigue...so i slept it off till late evening...woke up for dinner..we were all too lazy to walk out to the main road for food..so we ate cup noodles for dinner...then we had our ritual night swim....
