Waking up knowing you’re leaving such a nice place as Lovinalife is not easy.
And so we dragged ourself to the restaurant to “enjoy” a little breakfast. Literally little.
Sweet sweet breakfast
Red fruit salad
Despite not being so abundant, the breakfast was quite good.
We went to our room to finish packing our stuff and get ready. While Sara was completing the usual morning woman procedures, I went to the hall to pay the bill.
As I was there our bus arrived so I had to rush outside give the driver our luggage and ask him to wait for my wife.
We caught the bus… Unfortunately!
The trip was horrible. We were seated in the last seats of a minibus, with another driver who didn’t want to use the third gear and shifted directly from second to fourth accelerating like crazy.

Plus the bus was old and smelled bad.
It took almost 4 hours to get to Sanur.
Furthermore the driver left us far from the original drop off point ,
Thanks to BlueBird, the Balinese taxi company, we reached the hotel in few minutes and spending only 30thousand idr.
Our room for the next 3 days
The hotel also had a swimming pool, and a Spa. I’m quite confident we will use it in the coming days.

We unpacked all our stuff, and rested a bit before renting a scooter for the rest of the day.
We decided to go to Semyniak, to enjoy the tourist life for once.
It took us 35 minutes… To get stuck for the next 30 minutes. Traffick between Kuta, Legian and Semyniak is something crazy!
Narrow roads, hundreds of scooters, dozens of cars, and nobody that seems like having an idea about how they got there and how to escape.
As soon as we could we parked the scooter and went shopping on the way to the beach.
Beach that was not there when we got there… Semyniak beach is barely 5 meters wide, and basically empty.
We then rode back to where we met with Dario. The beach between Legian and Semyniak. Here we enjoyed the sunset, while watching surfers, kites, and people walking on the shore.

Ti conclude the day we went for a cocktail in one pub close to the beach.
Pineapple juice and Strawberry juice
Refreshed we rode thee scooter back to Sanur.
Another 35 minutes in the traffic.
We didn’t go straight to the hotel, but searched for a restaurant for dinner.
The choice fell on Kayumanis. The Menú was a bit Occidentalized, but the food was great nonetheless.
Filled we went for a digestive walk on the Sanur “lungomare” where we went shopping, and bought two return tickets for the next day for Nusa Penida before going back to the hotel.
