Denpasar is the capital city of the province of Bali, Indonesia. It is known worldwide as a major tourist destination, and is the main gateway to Bali. The city is also a hub for other cities in the Lesser Sunda Islands. Denpasar is a bustling, multi-cultural city and although it can seem a little intimidating the first time you visit, just do not believe those travel guides which say it has nothing to offer. It is bristling with temples, palaces and museums and its occupants are outstandingly friendly. You will be off the beaten tourist track here, so bring lots of time for a chat with the locals and a decent map of town. You can see many of the main sights comfortably on foot.
I was looking into taking a vacation over Christmas break, and Milica from Trip Designs suggested going to Hawaii, and to be more specific, island hopping. First we went to Oahu and next to Kauai. As I never been to Kauai I needed some ideas on where to stay, and based on Milica's suggestion we strayed at Sheraton Kauai Resort. I was so glad I followed her suggestion, as the hotel had beautiful views, nice beach and it's very kids friendly. They also offer breakfast buffet, with a wide variety of food, perfect for picky eaters as well as grownups. Nothing beats the fresh bowl of pineapple for breakfast! Pool was perfect for kids, but the best part was surf lessons. My 8 year old son learned how to surf thanks to the best surf instructors! Thank you Trip designs for making my Christmas break so enjoyable.
