Bali - Seminyak, Seiryu Villa.

Our flight was at 945am so we had to check in 2 hours before that. We were contemplating if we were going to go on the cab or the mrt. In the end, we managed to get a cab and we were on our way!

On the traveler enroute to our boarding gate.
Me shopping with the KrisShop magazine.

Onboard SQ942 on our way to our honeymoon destination - Bali.
The pick up at the airport.
They served iced aqua and a ice cold towel. The sun was scorching hot at 12 noon!
The ultra blue skies with splatters of fluffy white clouds of Bali.

The Seiryu which means quiet dragon at Seminyak, Bali.

The reception area. Apparently, this place just opened up less than 2 years ago. The place is really serene.

The walkway to the 8 villas housed in Seiryu.
Yes, only 8 villas here.


This is the explanation of why this place was called 'Seiryu'.

Inside our villa, which the 'butler' ushered us to and also explained in detail what was offered in the room as well as where all the switches were.

The villa offered a lap pool and also a deck for suntanning in your own privacy.

The living room area of the villa - looking in to the deck.

The kitchenette which was fully equipped with a rice maker, microwave oven, coffee maker, water dispenser, pots, pans, cutlery, plates, bowls, cups, wine glasses etc etc.

The shower area with a jacuzzi bath tub that leads straight to the lap pool. There was also the walk-in wardrobe as well as bedroom. This villa was as big as our flat!
After being wow-ed by the villa, we went out for a walk. Since this is Bali, how could we give the beach a miss?


Me at the beach. The sand was grey or near black. I have no idea why. The waves were huge though and it was really hot!
Time for lunch and we walked and walked to a place called Warung Made which was supposedly famous for the roasted pig. Of course, we didn't order roasted pig because we had to order the whole pig!

I had Gado Gado which was different from the Singapore's version but tasted similar. Yong had the nasi goreng with his Bintang. I ordered extra fries =P

Cleaning my hands before eating!
The streets of Bali. There was really a lot of walking to be done. It was really crazy. In the end, we took a taxi back to the villa in the late evening after walking. I realised that walking to do shopping in Bali is not really possible if you want to cover great distances. Unlike having shopping malls, the shops are all housed individually side-by-side on the streets. The weather in Bali is also a factor as its scorching hot.

This was me at night around 7pm preparing for bed as we were going to have to wake up at 130am to head out to Mt Batur for the sunrise trek. Yong said I look small on the bed but I told him the bed was huge.
