What if you left everything behind, and moved halfway around the world?

Denise and I went to Bali last week, with our friends Lonnie and Eve. We visited Ubud, the artistic heart of Bali, and watched a traditional Barong dance, and feasted on world-class food. We also took a chance on Nusa Lembongan, an island off the southeast coast of the Bali mainland. The total population of the island is 7000, with no cars. We did some great snorkelling (I saw some barracuda!) and relaxed in the sun. Very nice. Denise has a more in-depth writeup on her blog.

When we returned to Bandung on Monday, we found that the rainy season had begun in earnest. It now rains every day. On and off, ALL DAY. Which is nice and peaceful, and cools down the air. But it also makes running errands challenging (or impossible), and it can be tricky to time the ride to school. Overall though, it’s a nice change. I’m sure I’ll feel differently in a couple of months. :)
