Sad to leave

Pancakes eaten ... we caught the 8.30am boat back to Bali. We watched the locals collecting seaweed that had drifted from the farms, whilst we waited for the boat. However, the boat was broken, so we got upgraded to an air conditioned boat with surfing movies and wifi! Oh, and this boat had 2 huge outboards which powered us to Sanur in half the time!

As we had arrived so early, we had a long wait for the bus but that meant more time to relax in Sanur. The journey back to Kuta was uneventful and the traffic much lighter than on the way out. We checked into our trusty homestay and went out to fill up on lunch!

After eating we donned our surf attire and walked to the beach. The waves were small today but that didn't stop us having a great time riding them into the beach. When we had spent enough time in the water we searched for new owners for our boogie boards. Today would be our last time surfing and we wanted to give them away to someone who would enjoy them as much as we have. We found 2 little boys playing in the sea with their mum. She said her kids would love them, so we parted company feeling a little sad to say goodbye!

As we walked back to our homestay, we spotted a 'belly dancing' contest, so took a peek. We only saw one dancer before they stopped for a break, but it looked fun! After dinner we went back to see if the belly dancing was still on but they had finished. Although, we did spot some funky giraffes in the shopping centre. There was also a movie showing on the steps near the beach on a big screen but it looked a little weird, so we didn't stay long!
