We have found a lovely Australian hang-out to enjoy a refreshing beverage – Bali Cider! There are apparently only two locales that sell it in the area and so we have no choice but to continue to go back ….

We have also been enjoying the rooftop pool in our hotel – J Boutique Hotel – which offers a nice view of the planes coming in and out of the airport and the ocean in the distance.

We aren’t far from the Kuta Beach area, but the one closest to us is more used by the locals than tourists. We headed there last night to take in the sunset.
