Chapter 22: "Yes taksi?"
The views I got of Darwin on the cab ride to the airport Friday morning made me feel better about not spending time there. The city in daylight was significantly less enchanting than it was at night, consisting mostly of non-descript squat cyclone-proof buildings. In the 70's Cyclone Tracy destroyed almost the entire city and left most people …
Another Kuta Beach
We are now at Kuta Beach (Lombok) in much nicer accommodation. Our sleep has been disturbed for the last three nights by mosquitoes, frogs, running water, the chanting of the Koran and an undersized bed.

... costumes are costly so I called it good. We then head to the bazzar outside but on the temple grounds I suppose. Well, this must have been 100 stalls easy and these folks were hungry for the white man's money. All a bunch of junk like we see in Mexico and really pushy folks. At this point, I believe Rob dropped the idea of Hinduism and now floats once again in the abyss. The good thing is in Thailand they are Buddist and I always had ...
