Jungut Batu on Nusa Lembongan767 viewsOn Wednesday 22nd October, we made our way to Sanur, where we stayed at Agung and Sue's Watering Hole, a low-price backpacker-style hotel with an excellent budget restaurant. From there we caught the early morning (8am) boat to Jungut Batu on the island of Nusa Lembongan.

Tamarind Beach bungalow765 viewsThe bungalows have only been open for a short time and trade is a little slow since the tragic bombing on Bali in October 2002. If you're interested, you can contact the resort at [email protected]

Ferry to Sanur from Nusa Lembongan619 viewsThe journey out to Nusa Lembongan made us both feel seasick, but the jouney back, although much rougher, didn't have the same effect. It could be that we had a better place on the boat.

The Funan IT Mall, Singapore572 viewsOn the last day of our honeymoon (30th October) we did loads of shopping in Singapore. Nigel went off to the Funan Mall, an amazing shopping mall with 6 floors of shops, mostly computer-related. A dangerous place for anyone with a weakness for gadgets!

|
|
Boogie Run567 viewsThe Boogie Run (wider track) is a side by side slide, where you go down the slide head-first lying face down on a mat. Vic and I went on this together and agreed it was pretty good, and not as extreme as the others shown on here.

|
|
Smashdown at Waterbom563 viewsThe Smashdown is the most extreme slide at Waterbom. It features an almost vertical drop after an enclosed entrance. The speed of falling and force of water when you hit the bottom are exhilirating (and a bit scarey!)
