2. Definitely got a workout playing ping-pong and yes, I definitely kicked Snickers’ butt… hahaha.
3. Two massive ice cream cones got delivered to us while we were relaxing at the pool, courtesy of our French buddies… ca tres bien!
4. Tomorrow we’re planning on renting a driver and car and going on a day tour, so today we chatted about the sites we wanted to go see. The plan is to go to a monkey forest, visit a temple, watch a sunset fire dance, and see a 70ft cliff that supposedly is a must see.
5. With way too much time on our hands, Snickers and I made up our own card game… and I mastered cheating it… hahaha. The point of the game is to be the person who gets rid of all their cards first but little did Snickers know, I was slapping down two cards at a time instead of one… hahaha.
6. Am pretty sure we convinced a couple that Snickers is from North Korea… hahaha.
All the pictures here were taken at the front entrance of our resort.
Wow, so beautiful!!! Ya, and I guess the massive pillars are beautiful too... hahaha. 
Bali is loaded rich with lucious greenery and this tree on our resort was our favorite. It reminded us of the tree from the movie "Avatar".
And what's a honeymoon without a lot of kisses?!
... for me...
... for Snickers...
... and for the camera ;)7. So much for giving our pocket book a rest, tonight we ventured out of the resort for dinner and to pick up a few gifts. We only bought a handful of gifts and I totally know that when we get back to Korea we’re going to regret not buying more but, well, that’s the breaks. I’m here to enjoy my honeymoon, not go crazy with the shopping.
8. Tomorrow’s anticipated day tour almost got cancelled when after setting it all up the man then blurted out, “the cliff is so romantic… maybe you’ll want to have a honeymoon baby?!” And with that I canceled the tour and decided to book it with another company. The smell of baby is in the air, it must be, because Snickers keeps on talking about us having a baby. Yes, I’m still not really keen on having a kid in addition to not being fully able to have one. I’m “reproductory-challenged”, and Snickers knows this. One of my best friends in Canada was in a similar situation as me and her and her husband tried for years to have kids. Trips to the fertility doctor became a regular outing and “adult play” became a chore. I’m happy for them in that they are now a family of three, they had a baby boy, but it took them a lot of money, effort and tears to get that boy. I’m pretty sure that the intimacy in that relationship was bruised. I’m happy for them but I don’t envy them, nor do I ever want to go through what they went through cause, for starters, I don’t see the point in fighting for something I’m not even sure I want (a kid).
9. Just as we were about to end our night in the market, I got approached by an Indonesian man. He handed both Snickers and I a promotion card and told us to open it. Snickers won two t-shirts. However, much to my surprise, I opened mine and saw that I was the grand winner. I’m a sucker for silly gimmicks like this and so I got so hyper. After much talk with this guy, who’s name was Salle, we agreed to meet with him on Thursday morning at his hotel’s sales office where I’d then scratch the little box on the card to see if my grand prize would be a digital camcorder, a one-week holiday, or $500.
10. Snickers wanted no part in it but when Salle told us that they’d pay for our taxi rides and it’d only take 20 minutes, we both agreed that we really had nothing to lose.

QUESTION OF THE DAY...
Did I just become another "tourist sucker"?
