Hello from Bali!
Yes I'm still alive, it's been a while I know, communication is not a priority in Bali it seems. Only Bali phones work in Bali, no Vodafone etc and we are still on dial up so it's taken me 20 minutes to bring up my e-mails. So don't expect any new pictures till I get to Hong Kong I've heard through the grapevine technology is better there. That is if I can bring myself to leave this wonderful place. I'm staying in a lovely hotel for just 9 of your English pounds a night, there is a swim up bar where the average price of a beer is 50p and a gym although frankly it's way to hot so there won't be any treadmill action for me. Every night in the bar there is a cover band playing all the same songs as the bar down the road and every other song is a reggae version of a song that wasn't a reggae song in the first place! Think I'm a bit reggaed out at the moment. Someone even murdered Radiohead last night with a yes you guessed it reggae version of Creep. Very interesting I have to say. Well it's certainly hot here and I think I've had sunstroke or heatstroke for the last two days, I didn't even go out last night I stayed in confined to my bed and watched two of those not quite so legal DVD's you can buy around the corner and ordered room service like a rich person. It has cooled off a lot today, it's only 33 degrees which I'm told is 'Not very hot today Miss Jo' Apart from laying by the pool, swimming in the sea and getting too much sun I went to a temple the other day that had wild monkeys running around everywhere. God it is frightening how much like humans they are. I saw two Japanese tourists get their glasses stolen by the little blighters who like to run off and put the glasses on breaking them in the process. To be fair they do tell you this before you go into the place and you would have to be looking at them quite closely for them to be able to take them off your face. Anyway just a quick hello today as it's too hot, I think I'm still a bit spaced out and the woman who owns the internet café is clipping her toenails behind me! yuck! So I'm off to find some shade.
