As I walked I kept asking people where "Miss sunshine" was. No one seemed to know... This was not a good sign.

After running around the beach for some time I finally found someone who knew where it was. When I got there, the owner had no idea about our booking and told us that she was fully booked. This was very frustrating as we had already paid for our accommodation there via booking.com ...

I had to go and tell the others that we had to find a new place to stay, as I was walking up the hill, I could see a storm was coming. Not just any storm, but a BIG storm. When I got to the top, I found the others standing on the side of the road with their bags, and the driver nowhere to be seen...

In the rain, I started running from place to place to see if they had a room for us, and for some reason, the prices of places seem to be 10X what they were when we were looking earlier.

We managed to find a place that was not too expensive and looked OK form the outside. The rooms, on the other hand, were not so nice. You name it, rats, cockroaches, bugs, mold, this place had it.

As we sat there soaking wet, trying to drown our sorrows with beer that was far too weak for the job. We started looking for other places we could go. At around 10 pm we found a place and decided we should leave. We paid for our rooms and I went out to find a taxi. Turns out I found the creepiest taxi driver around.

The driver was a kid, around 16 I would say. For the whole trip 1.5 hours, we would not stop dropping hints that he liked out friend and kept asking her to marry him. This made for a very awkward trip.

We ended up staying in The Aston Canggu, which was absolutely amazing, we ended up paying through our teeth for the hotel, but it was exactly what we needed after the last adventure.

The trip as a whole was eye opening and very enjoyable. I am glad we had a few issues, as it makes for an interesting story to tell my kids later on in life. We had heaps of fun and wouldn't change it at all.

There is a lot more to this tale, but that is for another night.

@NeuroWinter

@NeuroWinter wow! That's more adventure than you really needed, but you wound up in some excellent places! So it's definitely a win.
