Backpacker Hell

10 August 2006 Having decided to try a new beach each day, we finally found ourselves at Kuta, surrounded by Australian backpackers, fleeced by a wrinkled old granny whose gummy smile charmed me into parting with a handsome sum for a juicy mango (let's just say it would have been cheaper at Waitrose), and more Hard Rock Cafe Bali souvenirs than we care to remember.
