Indonesia - Bali - Legian & Kuta

As far as backpackers go Kuta & Legian really are places where you would generally avoid primarily due to the Locals hassling you for Taxi's or excursions & the fact that its more of a Package holiday type place, where everything is already inflated... that's fine if your away for 2 weeks but you certainly notice these things more when you've been away for 9 months...
For some reason I actually loved this place! It was like we having a holiday within a holiday. we found some great deals around , which again you wouldn't necessarily look for if you were out for 2weeks...

But even though i can't surf and i didn't intend to learn because initially i didn't think i would be there long enough to really appreciate it.  I loved being a beach bum & Body Boarding for an unbelievable 7 days...
This was a surprise to me more than anyone - Its not that I am in need of a tan, so the beach is the last place I'd like to be because i get easily bored but The combination of a cool wind, a good book and great waves....
Made my entire time here FUN




 Best coastal sunsets I've seen...



 Soul Food - Fried Chicken, Boiled Rice & Chili Sauce

 Day 1 - I felt the Burn...

 MBA Tour agency 
There everywhere & non of them are the same price!
Bewarned they are proffesional Husselers. Use every trick in the book before purchasing.
Best bet is to get an idea of the value from other tourists before striking a deal...
