This massive fire trap was a favorite among backpackers. It housed a number of dormitory style accommodations. I was still pretty ill from Dengue Fever so I picked one and just hung out for a few days.

The only thing I remember about the flight from Denpasar was landing at Kai Tak Airport. This used to be one of the most amazing airports in the world. Landing while being able to actually see inside people's homes was both frightening and amazing.
