In Bali, Lauren Cohen found a piece of heaven offset by unusual billing processes

Bali's turquoise oceans and kilometres of sandy beaches are juxtaposed against its jam-packed streets filled with hooting motorcyclists and minivans.
On our holiday to the Nusa Dua, the humidity that permeates every daytime hour turned my friends and I off the shopping and sightseeing trail, and onto the beaches that ring the island.
This photo was taken from a viewpoint at New Kuta Beach, better known to surfers around the world as Dreamland.
My friends, Nicci Probert and Shelley Kobus, pictured, were cornered by an angry waiter after lunch, as we were leaving to float in the gorgeous waters below. A minor spat over the bill ensued because we had ordered from several restaurants in the complex and hadn't kept track. We simply paid up to avoid any brushes with the law while on holiday in paradise.
Bali is rich in natural beauty and has talented craftsmen on every corner. Best of all: the cheap massages and the local Bintang beer.
