Padangbai, Bali (Indonesia)

From Ho Chi Minh City we stopped in Singapore then connected to Bali.  When we arrived in Denpasar it was total chaos.  The driver was waiting for us to drive us to Padangbai. It was a longer drive than I expected and took us more than an hour.  The guest house was beautiful and nicely decorated in Balinese style - the only thing i missed there were no kids to play with. The next morning we decided to take a short hike.

As we were hiking my dad saw two local people and thought we should follow them - as we followed the trail right in the thick of the bushes we discovered this beautiful beach sitting in the middle of nowhere with few shacks on site.  The beach was empty with few locals hanging out and selling local food.  We hung out with the locals, ate,  swam, until late evening.
