Chapter 420: Is It Really You
It is also very important to make up for sun protection regularly, and after taking a shower at the hotel at night, apply a layer of banana boat after sun repair, which will be very comfortable after air drying. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info2) Long-sleeved sunscreen clothing or shawl: This is a cliché, but it is indeed safer to add physical sunscreen after applying sunscreen. 3) Hydrating and moisturizing products: Bali is near the equator and very dry.
Therefore, hand creams, lip balms, and face masks are just as indispensable as moisturizing sprays. Applying a face mask while watching an Indonesian show in the evening is also one of the compulsory classes every day. After a few days, the moisturizing spray ran out, and I couldn't find Avène or Evian in all the major supermarkets and convenience stores in Bali, so I was very distressed. 4) Swimsuit and swim trunks: How can you go to the island without a swimsuit?
It is recommended to bring two or more sets, because swimsuits are required for snorkeling, rafting, taking pictures, and going back to the hotel to soak in the pool. 5) Commonly used medicines: Bali's medical care is relatively backward, and if you are sick, tour guides are not at ease to buy their own medicines for Xueluo and Liu Jingshu.
Therefore, bring as many common medicines as possible: allergies, colds, diarrhea, antibiotics, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving, vitamins and other appropriate amounts. 6) Mosquito and insect prevention products: The mosquitoes at the equator are very ferocious, although the snow falls is not the physique of mosquitoes, but seeing that the little friends are plagued by mosquito bites, I still remind everyone of friendship.
Whether it's a domestic or a double flyer's advice or a Thai grass cream, bring it with you, there is always one that can deal with Balinese mosquitoes. 7) Band-Aid: Snorkeling is very easy to get hurt, and when the snow falls and climbs onto the boat after snorkeling, there is a bleeding wound on the foot silently, if it is not for the boatman to remind the snow to fall and the snow falls, he can't feel it at all.
The companion even bumped into the edge of the boat when he climbed onto the boat, and his mouth bled a lot. Anyway, it's not the right thing to bring. 8) Waterproof case for camera: The waterproof case for mobile phones may not be very useful for snorkeling, but it can be a great help when rafting. Because you can't bring equipment like a DSLR when rafting, a mobile phone or card player and a small waterproof case are common equipment when rafting.
If you want to take pictures in rainy weather, compared to umbrella sleeves and fresh-keeping bags, waterproof covers are undoubtedly the best choice for single customization. 9) Adapter plug: The current in Bali is 22060, use a two-pin round socket, you need to bring your own adapter. If there are many electrical appliances that need to be charged, it is recommended to bring two.
Some hotels are more intimate and will be ready for guests in the room. Body: 52 Lens: 1740 Sigma 5014 Canon 702004 Flash: 580 (not used much) Tripod: One of Beno, the model forgot the card: 16 + 32 A total of two In addition, the selfie remote control, charger, battery, filter, several photos that are not added are 4 shots Bali is a tip country.
There are many occasions where a tip should be given to the service staff. Xueluo and Liu Jingshu are giving bedside tips and bellman tips every day, both of which are 1 US dollar or 10,000 or 10 yuan. The tip with the rafting instructor is also this number. Also, the tip of the tour guide is also a must, as for how much to give, you can consult the travel agency for a reference.
If you eat, you can tip according to the service, and if the restaurant includes the service charge in the total cost, you don't have to give it again. The most famous shopping spot in Bali is the Ubud Market, and although there are many familiar things, you may be able to find a cheaper one, but it is a kind of mood to buy. The price of things in the Ubud market is very high.
Therefore, generally with three folds as the entry point of bargaining, if you can't talk about it, you can use the international general walking method, the buyer will definitely call you back while bargaining while harvesting a very sense of achievement!
There are also some locally-inspired cups, saucers, and chopsticks, which are also great for souvenirs to return home to relatives and friends. What is not very recommended is aromatherapy essential oil, those essential oils in the market are not right at a glance, and the essential oil is still reliable in Thailand. In addition, Indonesia is famous for its coffee, especially in the northern part of the country, which is very conducive to the cultivation of excellent coffee beans.
Coffee controllers can buy some locally produced beans to take home, and if they don't have a grinder at home, they can also let the locals grind them and take them home. The origin of the famous cat poop coffee is Indonesia, and the cost of buying cat poop coffee at home to grind powder and brew each cup is only one-sixth of that of the café, and it is certainly fresher and authentic than the café, and friends who love coffee can't miss it.
Another thing that is not very recommended is the local instant coffee, because I heard from the locals that only stunted coffee beans are used to make instant coffee, and the taste is far, far from the freshly ground coffee, so, you know. Ubud is home to many small shops, especially the Ubud Market, which sells intricately hand-painted postcards with local flair.
If you buy more, you can bargain about the postage: no matter which country or region in Asia you send to, it is a 10,000 face value stamp. Most convenience stores sell stamps, but they are usually more expensive, such as 7,000 stamps with a 5,000 denomination. Therefore, it is recommended to go directly to the hotel where you are staying and ask the front desk to help you send it on your behalf.
About hotel delivery: Most star hotels will have this service. But they don't provide stamps, just give the staff the postage (10,000 sheets) they need to pay. You don't have to pay a shipping fee (of course, you can also give a certain amount of tipping voluntarily).
Fly like seeing a long-lost old friend waiting for departure, like the sunshine outside the window, brilliant, although I got up at four o'clock to rush to the airport, but there was no sleepiness at all, thinking of the upcoming trip is always full of energy, because I am not sure if the airline has an in-flight meal, so I ate a simple coffee + sandwich breakfast here after meeting with my friends.
Basking in the sun and waiting for the service of the take-off airline is really good, as soon as the flight attendant on the plane will diligently distribute blankets and headphones, although the plane meal is not as good as some well-known foreign airlines, but it is also passable, much better than the likes of China Eastern Airlines, Shanghai Airlines, etc., there is an electronic entertainment system in front of each seat, to more than 2 hours of flight time, the time to watch a movie is 10:20 in the morning.
Arrived at Chek Lap Kok Airport on time, I can't remember how many times I came to see the special font on the sign that can only be seen, and the extra cordial transfer is like this: after arriving at the airport, you must first find the transfer channel, and after entering the channel, you still need to queue up to pass the security check before you can enter the waiting area, so you have to transfer at the airport.
The time between the flights before and after should be reserved for more than an hour and a half, and it will be more calm, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu have two hours of transit time this time, and there is still time to visit the duty-free shop at the airport after the security check, which is not in a hurry, and does not feel that the transfer is boring, which is a very suitable time arrangement.
In addition, many people will arrange independent travel, including group routes, to play with Bali, because there are a lot of flights to Bali, and you can stay for 1 to 2 nights when you depart or return to transfer, because I personally feel that it is too boring to go on a special trip, and use the transfer to go without wasting it, and you can experience the island style of Southeast Asia.
I can feel the modern fast-paced itinerary of the modern city and the itinerary is much richer, and there is a third country air ticket that you don't need to apply for an endorsement Oh, this time, because there are small partners with you, plus the incident, so there is no exit from the airport, An An went straight to Bali, and the flight attendant on the plane will issue an arrival card and customs declaration.
Remember to take that although the layout of the arrival card in Bali is similar to that of Thailand, just fill it out with your eyes closed, but before departure, the travel agency still prints out the template of the entry and exit card to help Xueluo prepare, including how to buy a landing visa, there are also intimate tips, thank you so much for them, after a 5-hour flight, I finally arrived in Bali, which is located in the southern hemisphere.
The same is the island of Southeast Asia, I didn't expect it to be so far away during the National Day, there are a lot of tour groups to Bali, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu found out when they boarded the plane at the airport, so get off the plane, if you want to queue up less, please try to run as fast as possible and then buy a landing visa first, from $25 to $35 per person.
There is no need for any other materials, no questions will be asked, show your passport and the arrival card and customs declaration form that you have filled out on the plane, pay the visa directly and leave, so it is okay, hurry up and queue up for customs at Denpasar Airport in Bali, it is estimated that the tour group that arrived on the previous plane has not left, and you are frightened by the long queue that you can't see.
Oh my God, I didn't expect there to be so many people! Xueluo and Liu Jingshu and their entourage lined up with a tour group for some reason, and saw that the passports of the group members were neatly sandwiched with a 10 yuan legendary story becoming a reality in front of their eyes, and they still appealed again helplessly: Please ignore the extortion of tips by customs officers!
If you don't give it to them, you really won't be able to do anything to you! When Xueluo and Liu Jingshu arrived, in addition to Xueluo, Dai Xiansen, including several other friends, encountered entry blackmail, and the hit rate was quite high, but Xueluo and Liu Jingshu ignored it and passed smoothly, but when it was time to claim their luggage outside.
Xueluo recognized Xueluo's box at a glance, and it had been taken off the conveyor belt and placed on the side with other boxes, and Xueluo stepped forward to take the box and was about to leave, when an airport staff member came out of nowhere, saying that he could help Xueluo take the box while saying in standard Chinese: RMB. All in all, Bali is beautiful.
The islanders are also very friendly, the only place that will pull the impression is this airport, after some unexpected twists and turns, out of the airport, I saw the tour guide holding the name of Xueluo and Liu Jingshu, waiting for Xueluo and Liu Jingshu, at this time it has been an hour since getting off the plane, here is a grand introduction to Xueluo and Liu Jingshu's tour guide, big fat and little fat.
Although it is a four-person trip, but the travel agency is very intimate to arrange two chartered cars, each chartered car is equipped with an accompanying tour guide and driver, that is, two tour guides + two cars + two drivers configuration, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu's tour guide is a simple and humorous big fat, and later found that the whole process is really convenient to have a tour guide to accompany you, and you can talk to the tour guide at any time if you have any questions.
The tour guide will try to help answer questions as much as possible, solve problems and meet with the big fat and chubby, the local beauties of Indonesia presented a fragrant frangipani wreath when the snow fell and Liu Jingshu did not come back to her senses, frangipani is the national flower of Indonesia, which can be seen everywhere in Bali, showing respect and welcome to visitors, and it is also a pick-up and a flower offering.
I have never enjoyed such treatment when I went abroad several times before, and the prejudice and unhappiness caused by tips at the time of entry have also disappeared, and the vehicle is also a brand new Suzuki, similar to the seven-seat Touran in China, and the ride is very comfortable, the driver and the tour guide are naturally sitting in the position of the driver and co-pilot, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu sit in the middle row, and the back row can be used to place luggage,.
This is more spacious, and it is more convenient to get on and off the car, and there is another advantage that you can put the seat flat to sleep when you are in a hurry for a long time, and the fatigue of the journey will be reduced by many other important points: Xueluo and Liu Jingshu did not buy a phone card on this trip, and there is one in the car!
It is definitely the gospel of mobile phone control, plus the hotel rooms and restaurants are basically available, so even if you don't have a phone card, it is enough to only handle international roaming before traveling, and when you arrive in Bali, it is dusk, and when you leave the airport, it is a sunset and the island's unique fresh air, sitting in the car and looking at this strange country.
Listening to the big fat unhurried introduction to Bali, especially relieved that he said that Bali is in the rainy season, but this year is more special, since September there has been a rain, I hope this good luck can continue to the first dinner, the façade is not very eye-catching, but there is a cave inside the restaurant decoration, most of them are the most characteristic wood carvings in Bali.
Even the dining tables and chairs are made of wood, which is Xueluo's favorite material, and the walls, stairwells, and even unknown corners are filled with artworks that the owner has found out of nowhere, and it is more like an artistic gallery than a restaurant, and there is hardly any introduction to this restaurant on the Internet, if it were not for the locals to lead the way.
It should be difficult to find such a place with local characteristics when you come by yourself, Big Fat and Little Fat seem to be very familiar with here, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu, who are not familiar with the place, naturally handed over the power of ordering to them, Xueluo and Liu Jingshu are also happy to eat ready-made, of course, if you see what you want to eat on the menu, you can also order it, this is the freedom of the private group.
If the group travel is naturally a already prepared menu, what to eat on the private group is much more flexible, the ordering is basically a part of the tour guide recommended + according to their own preferences and then add another dish after serving, the tour guide will introduce to you one by one what kind of dish it is, how to eat, and will not leave after all the introductions of course.
Because I was in a hurry all day, I ate a plane meal, and I wanted to eat a good meal so much that I didn't listen carefully when the tour guide introduced it, and I knew that many dishes were now forgotten. A kind of fried fish in the local area, although its appearance is not good-looking, it is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and it is delicious with a secret sauce, and there is not much meat in a fish.
So after eating it all, I'm still savoring the taste. This is the legendary Eat Less, Taste More, Dangdang, this is the favorite of Bali when the snow falls, Satay Chicken Skewers, the meat is both chewy and delicious, and every meal must be ordered Oh, although the taste of Satay Chicken Skewers in each restaurant is different, but they are all the same delicious!
