• _Now You See Her_ by James Patterson & Michael Ledwidge While I was hesitant to read another Patterson book so soon after my last one, I was looking for a quick read for the plane rides on my way back home. This one was a quick read, which I finished in one day due to a sleepless night before my second day of traveling. The main character runs from her past in Florida…

  • _The Plague_ by Albert Camus Albert Camus (pronounced ca-moo and not cay-mus as I would like to say it) is an interesting author from Algeria. He wrote _The Stranger_ (published 1946), which I read quite a few years ago after my college friends gave it to me as a gift. I hadn’t heard of him before, but I remember enjoying the book, though I can’t currently recall the story. When I came across…

  • Well, our last day was spent relaxing with final massages, errands, etc. Overall, we had a really lovely time in Bali and were sad to see the time come to an end. The return journey took us back to Jakarta on our way to Bangkok. I headed back to Abu Dhabi from there. Here are the last pics from our trip. Back to ‘normal’ posting after this. 🙂 [sthumbs=4205|4206|4207|4208|4209|4210|4211|4212|4213|4214|4215|4216|4217|4218|4219|4220|4221|4222|4223,max,3,y,center,]

  • Hardly worth posting for today, but a little something is better than nothing they say in the blogging world… 😀 The best part of the day was getting massages – about USD6 for an hour – at the first place we went to when we arrived. They were the best. After that was dinner at our Chinese food haunt (surprisingly no food photos this time!) and dessert at: [simage=4204,200,n,center,] Don’t ask why this…

  • A lazy day mostly by the pool – [sthumbs=4181|4182|4183|4184|4185|4186|4187|4188|4189|4190|4191|4192,max,3,n,center,] Later we went out. R got another tattoo done (no pic yet) and I did some shopping. Then, we went for some food and a ride around – [sthumbs=4193|4194|4195|4196|4197|4198|4199|4200|4201|4202|4203,max,3,n,center,] A good day! 😀

  • Time is going so quickly now. It’s another Friday in Bali and just a few more days left before we leave…. We just relaxed most of the day and then went in for some pampering. R did some ear candling to take the wax out of his ear. It was weird to see it happening! [simage=4175,200,n,center,] I got my mani-pedi done with a bright color to remind myself I am still on holiday…

  • Today was Marine Water Sports Day! It was a blast!! We had transport pick us up at 11am and then it was a 40-minute drive to the Nusa Dua area. Originally, we had considered staying at a resort in this area and then getting a scooter to visit the main beaches here in Bali. However, it seemed like it would be too far and boy was that estimate right. Not only is it…

  • Another day for the beach! It was pretty toasty out so we didn’t stay too long, but had some fun swimming in the waves. I wasn’t quite as brave as R in diving into the waves since they were pretty big and scary to me. However, it would have been a lot of fun to try surfing or just boogie-boarding. 🙂 Just a few pics for today – [simage=4146,200,y,center,][simage=4147,200,y,center,][simage=4148,200,y,center,]

  • Wow, a full two weeks of being in Bali has already passed. Just another week before it is a return to reality… 🙁 Let’s not think about that! We wanted to try out rafting in Bali since we had such a fun time in Oregon last summer. When we first arrived, we talked to a guy about two different locations for the rafting. He explained that one was close-by but with class 1…

  • Just another chilled day. So, here are some pics of our days… [sthumbs=4084|4085|4086|4087|4088|4089|4090|4091|4092|4093,max,3,y,center,]
