Friday evening, from sunset, The Longest Table record attempt was happening out the front and on the beach of Le Bleu Beachfront Restaurant. Right between the two islands of Nusa Dua Beach, an enormous table of approximately 60 metres length was set up to accommodate 120 people. What an amazing spectacle.

However, one guest, Klaus Schmidt, famous music videographer turned and asked me, ‘Where’s your girlfriend, mate?’ Good question. I think at those moments you do actually need one around!
