Notes from Bali, July 2009
Ever since I was mini-Vie, I have known with gluttonous conviction that someday, I’d be boppin’ round Bali on my honeymoon.
Lucky for me; Husby delivered… in a big way, as we kicked off our 9.5 week Spoilfest with the most mindboggling week @ Amankila & Amanusa.
[Ever since visiting Amanyara (Turks & Caicos), I’ve been chomping @ the bit to experience Aman Resorts in their original habitat - Indonesia.]
And shit, kittens.
It was breathtaking.
Deliciously exotic food, pamperriffic Balinese massages, private huts on beautiful beaches… and best of all, ridiculously romantic experiences that Husby & I will remember forever.

One evening @ Amankila, our most charming driver shuttles our Escalade 30 minutes up a mountaintop - to the middle-of-nowhere. Two butlers pop out of trees & direct us down a candelit path to a private “bale” (bed) built into the rocky landscape. The drop-off is steep; but the effect - worth it. Husby and I are cuddling in a bed literally sticking out of a Balinese mountain!
Moments later, we’re delivered gourmet canapes and cocktails, and … WhatTheFuck… watching the *sunset* from the best seat… on Earth.
Absolutely one of the most memorable, luckiest days of this Moopig’s life.
