When we went to Bali in August, we went to a town called Sanur and we bought tickets for a fast boat to get us to a little island called Nusa Lembongan. Our hotel in Kuta (where we stayed most of the time) orded a charter to get us to Sanur, a large coastal town where boats to Lembongan launch from the beaches. We boarded a small boat, only big enough for 10-15 people and went across the strait to Lembongan. When we were in the middle of the sea, water splashed into the boat and I got a little wet. The boat went up and down, up and down in the raging sea. Before I knew it, we could see the island where we would stay for 5 days. The boat slowed down out the window and I could see sea-weed farms in the water. I have never seen sea-weed farms before, and trust me, it’s an odd sight. The sea-weed is grown in the water and the sections of the sea-weed are fenced off to the other sections. When I jumped off the boat as we docked, I thought I was in paradise. I was!
We walked up a lot of steps to our room, over 100. It was the best room I have ever stayed in. The room had its own plunge pool, room for 10 people, and best of all, a mini bar! For the next 2 days, we just lounged around in such a big room, and enjoyed the awesome view. We could see the entire bay from our room. Hard to think were only 12 miles from mainland Bali!
On the last day of our stay Mum, Dad, Charlie and I hired 2 Mopeds, little motorbikes. (There are no cars on the island) We went all around the island in about an hour. When we got back to the town Mum and Charlie hopped off and my father and I sped into the hills of Lembongan. The motor bikes were both Hondas, one red and the other was black. We rode all around the island and went across the scariest bridge I’ve ever been on. It was made of wooden planks and didn’t look safe at all. We made it over the bridge in 1 piece (which was good!) and rode around an even smaller island called Nusa Penida (something likes that!).Some children showed us a lovely view of Christmas Bay (very picturesque) after that, I rode back to Lembongan and we packed, ready to go back to Bali. Lembongan was small, but beautiful and the food and people were great.
