... our own lobster, prawns, red snapper, clams, and squid.
After everything is weighed (you pay by the gram) the price is too
high Mike says “How about a discount?” - “what kind of discount
do you want 15 %?” He shows the price – “Umm no, how about
Obama discount?” This gets a smile – when we say we are from the
U.S. A lot of Balinese will reply “Obama –
good – he lived here” So the price is cut ...

... not we have hardly had any drink, since leaving kev & rach in australia, we eventually found one but the only one they had was johnny walker at about £30.00 so we went back to water, on arriving back we jumped into the pool & actually lounged on the sunbeds for the rest of the day which is unheard of for us, then found a super resturant within walking distance, pumkin soup & snapper in orange sauce, it was fab the beer was on draught & cheap ...

... style bread, Made uses half his butter to moisten. Was like comedy mime only without the hilarity that so often accompanies those bastions of silent comedy. A highlight of the tip for me was the announcement that the plane was approaching Singapore and would be landing shortly would we please fasten all seatbelts, etc. As well as shaking me out of my semi-hypnotic daze it left me wondering where on my itinery Singapore had been mentioned... I was booked onto flights ...

Hullo, one and all. I am afraid that my blog will be a short entry this time. I have some tragic news to relate. One week ago Jon Bushell, the partner of Alex, (the new English teacher who started the same time as me) was killed in a motorcycle accident. Life has been chaotic here since we first heard the news on Thursday night, but gradually the full facts have emerged. Jon was returning home from another day's driving instruction in Sanur, close to ...

... many ways! So my last night, Hanneke and I had a late dinner. After we found her a new place to stay and transported our bags (via bike of course) to her hotel, took us a while as we had to take a few trips - 2 of us, 2 big backpacks and 2 small bags just wouldn't all fit at once. We tried to do it Asian style as i'm sure the locals would've had no problem but let's face it but we're just some small-time white girls...haha. I tried to ...

... a very challenging asana practice. In the middle we stopped and sang more in Sanskrit, really singing from the heart, and also at the end. During the practice I literally could feel my heart open- it felt like the chains suffocating my heart had broken free and I began weeping uncontrollably. It was such a beautiful, moving, inspiring, joyful experience. To me, that's what it's about. That's what life's about. I want to ...

... a Bali massage are planned for today. Hopefully we should be able to live in luxury on the beach with lounge chairs and umbrellas, a surfboard, a massage and a manicure for less than $10 each. Plus a few cold drinks won't go astray. It's a bit nervewracking going down the beach though and haggling for these things and hopefully finding 'nice' people. You've got to be in the mood. And as I'm grumpy and couldn't sleep much, I hope it goes ok. But in the scheme of things ...

... I mean cabaret show on tonight!' he announced with a smile. We ordered standard Indonesian fare of chicken curry in coconut and gado gado, deliciously consumed. As I looked up from my meal, I saw a vision in while glide into the restaurant and start kissing, hugging and shaking all the clients' hands. He was dressed in a long flowing bussle-less 1900s dress, long sleeves and a shawl, buttoned to the neck ...

... place just set of f the main road. and during my last visit here i had a great few nights. As we arrived i was greeted with a warm welcome and the barman jumped up shouting my name. I obviously made a great impact on my last trip (My arrival with a like minded **** artist meant that the bar would be doing great buissness for a few days at least haha). the next 3 or 4 days were spent strolling the beach during the day soaking up a few ...

... to be requested 2 days earlier, and we never felt it would be damp !! The Bale, proved to be incredible for its atmosphere and closeness of seating. There was enough space to move, but inmtimate enough to have a great time... My table was called 'Chelsea' and the 10 people with me were all a great laugh. The food was of the 'Asian-fusion' style..google it if you want to know more... My description was 'Nice' but 'Not a lot' !! The speeches were fun, and the ...
