Our Bali 2015 Highlights
Hello fellow Flyers 
After my Sofitel and Qatar Airways Videos I finally had the time to edit our Bali Highlight Reel.
Bali was really great - even though the wether was very grim at times we never felt the need to stay indoors.
We visited almost all areas in the south but didn't have time to explore the north of the island. Ubud area was the farthest north we got.
Staying in Nusa Dua (Sofitel) turned out to be a good choice as it is calmer than busy Kuta and Seminyak and it is connected to the "mainland" by tollroad - so you can get anywhere fairly easy.
I would highly appreciate a thumbs up on youtube it you guys liked my video

I also reviewed the Sofitel property so if you have any questions just hit me up!
regards from cold rainy grumpy Austria

Temple is "Tanah Lot"
Awesome video,
Love Bali - holiday there often.
Love that you refer to the tollway as a easy way to access the mainland, I prefer to think of the tollway (jalan tol) as a way of keeping the rest of the yobbos out of Nusa Dua.
The temple that has water around it (at high tide) is Tanah Lot - a great place to have a cold beverage at sunset and watch the sun sinking into the Indian Ocean.

Spectacular trip report. So much personality, and such nice camera work. If you applied some image stabilization to your shots you'd literally be at a professional level. Bravo!
I love Bali as well, but not Nusa Dua, which felt sterile when I visited. My favorite part of the island was Sanur. And I loved the midnight downpours, with which you are obviously also well-acquainted.

Great vid! Two questions: What is the artist and song name of the music? And What is the beach with the tall mountains next to it somewhere around the beginning of the video? Doesn't look like Bali at all! I have been about 10 times and have never come across that beach.
