It wasn't until after I cleared security at the airport on February 18th that I realized my flight was the following night. I gave myself a good swift kick in the behind for writing the departure date down wrong in my notebook, and then caught a taxi back to Ronta Bungalows in Kuta to find my crew and have a well-deserved beer (and laugh).
As it turned out, in the meantime, Laura and Jessica had booked the same flight to Singapore as I would be on the next evening. We ate and amused ourselves until we'd all leave Bali. Linus was heading back to Komodo for a second attempt to see the dragons in their natural habitat.
I said goodbye to Linus for the 4th and final time, as did the girls, and we shared a taxi to the airport. We wandered a bit, drank some coffee, and boarded our 10:15pm flight to Singapore.

It was good - basic but good. Nice social vibe to the place. $5 USD a night, and you're a block or two from the big clubs and bar scene. I would highly recommend it. Shower was a bit funky and I saw a big roach or two at night in there, but such is life.
I've got photos under my Indonesia Flickr photobook - http://www.flickr.com/photos/gobackpacking --- towards the end of the photos since it was the last place I stayed.

Can't wait to hear your adventures in Singapore. I've actually been there... about 12 years ago. I went to visit my sister after my niece Holly was born there... middle name Kayne... as a play on the American that got cained there for misbehaving! Just DON'T litter or chew gum and you'll be fine!! :razz: I hope you can find the less expensive areas there because I certainly don't remember any!! Everything was super expensive... except tattoos! I got my second one there for only $8 U.S.
