Pls join the google group bali...@googlegroups.com. Someone pls help me add Eva, Sriwatsan and Vijetha too.
Pls sign on the sheet if you want plan A or B or something else. We need to fix hotels/ villas asap.
Thanks,
Akhil

Thanks Michelle. Thursday flight ppl will arrive in
afternoon, so I doubt they can join you.
As for the accommodation, having
asked a lot of Insead ppl and others been to Bali, most suggested staying in
Nusa Dua as it has the most pristine and beautiful beaches. Seminyak and Kuta
are very crowded. We can always go to the party places n come back to peace.
;)
So, for those not on their way to the volcano and arriving on Thu (like myself), here is a
possible plan:
10 Mar Thu: Arrive afternoon. Go to Ubud. Visit temples
like Tanah Lot. Cultural Shopping at the villages. Night stay at Ubud.
11
Mar Fri: Kintamani Volcano trek starting at 2:30am! Sunrise is damn good from
top. Return by 9am.
Rafting in afternoon at 1:30 - 6pm.
Eve: Volcano
trekkers join us back. Go to Ku De Ta Bar, Seminyak- Best Cocktail menu in Bali.
Night stay at Villa at Nusa Dua.
12 Mar Sat: Relax at Nusa Dua
beach/Kuta beach/Seminyak/Scuba diving.
Night: Hard Rock Hotel (not cafe),
Kuta- Its Centerstage rocks.
Night stay at Villa at Nusa Dua.
13 Mar
Sun: Chill out at Villa n back.
All places are close by, so easy to
travel- can even rent your own motorbikes!
Blog on Bali from a friend of

What say Guys? We should book soon before rates go
higher up, less than 20 days left.

Hey everyone,
It's definitely about time to get our villas in Bali. Here's our spreadsheet with a headcount:
And if you remember from Nir's email, there's also the volcano tour option:
I'm booking a 2 day tour (leaving from Bali) to Ijen volcano
Here's a summary of the schedule:
- Arrive Wednesday night in Bali (Air Asia, I believe still has good fares)
- Leave Thursday morning to Ijen
- Join the rest of the Bali folks Friday evening.
So far me, Nir and Anna are doing the volcano tour. Any more takers? Join us! :) The tour starts Thursday morning, but not sure what time for those of you arriving on Thursday. Nir can someone flying in Thursday morning join? What time do we have to be where?
So far we have 8 people Wednesday night, 20 Thursday night, and 23 Friday and Saturday nights when Nir & Anna and I return.
I know a couple people have ideas on recommended places - let us know what you have in mind, and let's book!
Thanks

Fri, Sat we all stay together in Villa at Sanur except those who booked acco already.Plan B consists of a package at Nick's Pension Villa at Ubud on Thu night, including airport pick up, drop, cultural village tour, sunrise volcano tour and rafting.

great! I've added everyone to the group list (hopefully :) ) we are up to 15 committed and checked on the final confirmation tab of our spreadsheet and expecting ~
Bali Final Confirmation spreadsheet (same as before, new tab now for your final check) <https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?hl=en&key=tFXpFeXULLrHTjRRVvf39Hg&hl=en#gid=1 >
so thanks everyone, good luck on OB, and we'll book next Monday-ish after our weekend travels and everyone has had a chance to go to the spreadsheet and check the box :)
link is also on that spreadsheet, but the villa we're committing to on Fri-Sat for ~$45-50 USD/night/person is the Emerald Villa <http://www.booking.com/hotel/id/bali-emerald-villas.html?aid=304142>
see you next week!

Hi everyone!
Sorry for the spam, but me and Caroline (my wife) just realized that Bali is the place to go to during the break… Ok, a bit of a last minute decision, but anyway. Just looking at the people going there I’m sure it’s going to be a great trip ;)
We plan to go there on Wednesday night and back top Singy on Sunday night. Akhil, IF there is a possibility to share accommodation in the villas Friday to Sunday and it not is a big hassle to add us, it would be great to stay together with you. Otherwise we will book everything separately. We will anyhow book the accommodation from Wednesday to Thursday. People arriving on Wednesday, where will you be staying?
Concerning the trek, it sound really great, and if (once again) it is possible to join, that would be great. Akhil, in order to save you some hassle, please let me know if you already have booked everything. If so, I’ll just call to Nick’s pension to see if we can add the group. Otherwise we’ll just find out something else to do on Thursday.
I will book the flights with Air Asia tomorrow morning.
See you!
