It can be argued that Bali is not the destination it once used to be. Bali is no longer the cheap holiday location it once was - true. In so many ways, Bali has improved, it is now turning into a more upmarket destination in many instances from restaurants, shopping and activities.
As Bali holidays become more expensive, what are our choices? As I spend my time with Mecky in the Philippines, I need to show her somewhere different that still has a resort type holiday feel. Do I start taking Mecky somewhere else or is a Bali holiday fine for relaxing and hanging out? Head to another Indonesian location maybe? East Malaysia, Peninsula Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia or the Philippines? What about Brunei or Myanmar?
I guessing East Malaysia probably as my next resort style break. We have been to Penang and Langkawi before, I would be happy back in Penang. I can't say I much enjoyed Langkawi. We travelled in KL and then onto Penang, the short hop from KL to Penang isn't too bad. But on the downside, it is so easy to get to Bali from both Perth and Manila - I think we will just hang in Bali.
