Today I was not up until 8.30am, which is the latest I have been able to sleep since I have been here. I want to sleep longer but I can't. I had Balinese soup which is called terong. It is a broth with peas and beans in it and it is now my favourite breakfast. I hope it is healthy and not too fattening lol! I then had to go to the Bounty hotel as I left my card in the machine! Silly me! They had already emptied the machine so they gave me the address of the ban...

They too believe that Jesus was the first prophet, his mother was Mary but God was NOT his father. This discussion was very in...

woke up to a beautiful day, had brekky on the deck, fruit, eggs, toast, coffe and fresh pineapple juice. Everybody except Nic and I went to the waterfalls. Nic and I lazed around the house, sunbaked and relaxed listening to tunes. About 12pm I jumped on a scooter and went down the goatrack that is the road up to our villa and went into Senggiggi by myself.
