January getaway in Bali 2014

Went for Chinese New Year Holiday in Bali, when actually we went also for working from Bali. Yes, my new office based in Bali, and it gave us flexibility to come to Bali for some short vacations.
For this holiday, we want to introduce Indonesia to Mr Smith aka Nicky, our team from UK, who never had any experience about Indonesia. We already prepare things to do in Bali, but here some fact happen there:

1. Our schedule for Nicky was ruined. We suppose to have lunch next to the beach, but Nicky need to have some performance review. He skip for this schedule. But me and Rani, my work mate still on schedule. We went there with Femi, team from Bali. And the beach is awesome. We went to Serangan Beach. Near to our office, and a lot of Surfer came and surf.

2. Okay we continue to have sunset and it should be to La Planca for the place name, but thanks to our Boss, who suddenly choose Crystal Palace because he think its empty. The place quite good but as famous as la planca, the beach called Double Six.

3. So we continue eating at Nourish, the best Pork Ribs in Bali...uh yeahhh *cant get any great picture, too dark but in that place wew our Mr Smith drink a lot of Martini and getting drunk. We continue to other place called Red Carpet and another shot of course made nicky getting more and more not his self. Then yes getting worse until Nicky and Mike very drunk. I cant tell the stories after that, but the result is new iphone 5 s from Nicky drowning in our pool. Yes that gold iphone is totally broken. And you can guess what happen in the next morning...yep our schedule totally ruined. We suppose to have one day in Ubud, to make Nicky feels about more Bali, but he cant awake at all from his bed. He then sleep all day, and wake up for dinner. Me and Rani was lil bit upset but keep doing a great things on other day :). But at dinner Nicky joining us in Ubud
