Balangan









Our last week in Bali was spent back on the Bukit Peninsula, just North of Bingin (where we spent the first week). Another world class wave is here, so we trudged down another hill with all of our bags in the hopes of finding a place to stay on the beach.

Turns out the homestays in Balangan were not as nice as their counterparts in Bingin. After searching the length of the beach, we ended up going back to the first place, which was at the bottom of the stairs. Damyan's Warung was right on the beach, and it only had one room. One small room, and no fan. But it had a proper crapper, not a Indonesian squatter, and it was only $6 a night.

Didn't sleep all that well, but we had a great time nonetheless. Probably the best beach to lounge on for Veronica. As for the surf, well, it got huge. SCARY BIG. Had some great rides, but I left Bali without a barrel. In the words of Jeffrey 'The Dude' Lebowski, 'F'n bummer man'.

  1. F'n bummer man. Looks like an epic trip nonetheless. Great pictures and thanks for the posts...it's been fun tracking the progress of your beard. Talk about epic, that thing is a beast!
