Bali May 2010 - Day 4 Departure

We had a couple of hours in the morning before leaving for the airport; this was a shot of the back of the performance area.... 'Angkor Wat-ish'?

Giant Chess.....

Love this photo... love the way the sun rays broke through the clouds... I took a series of photos and joined it together to show how big the beach was...

What the heck... took this shot too lah....

It was calling our names...... so we decided to dip our feet and tell people that we touched the ocean....

The ocean loved us back.. We only went ankle deep, but seconds later, a huge wave rolled in to above my knee level. My wife's slippers were washed away (but the ocean was kind enough to return them to her with the next wave.)

We walked around the hotel area for a bit to check it out...yes, yes we left it till the last day to explore the hotel haha! And regretted not spending more time in the hotel itself :(

Lots of flora at the Ayodya Palace wing...

..... and some fauna....

Another view of the ocean from the top floor of the hotel:

Petals in the ash trays everywhere - what a nice touch!

A nice place to chill out at night, I was told....

Last few looks of the hotel's expansive lobby / lounge...

Ok... we arrived at the airport a bit too early cos we wanted to beat the crowd - and we did....

Gate 7..... Bye bye Bali!
