Enjoying Bali after some rest

We are catching up on some sleep and feeling more alive. United airline lost half of one tandem
in transit somewhere. We should get it back tonight hopefully! Otherwise we just walked around town (Ubud) yesterday. The main interest for the kids was the market. Ubud is turning into a busy tourist place.

Tuesday we had a nice walk around the rice fields and got used to the heat a bit more. We are still on Bromont time – we wake up at midnight and can’t get back to sleep. Alex played on his iPod from midnight to 6:00 am!!

Wed: hired a driver for the day and went to the biggest temple in Bali – Besakih. We were lunky because the Balenese are celebrating now and it was full of people dressed up to pray – (much more lively than the Maya temples). We had a traffic jam waiting for a cremation procession to pass – interesting for the children. Then we went to the beach – quiet but not amazing

    You will get on to Indonesia time soon enough. 12 hours is a big time change.
    We are chasing our tails to get ready to leave. Of course, new and urgent issues alwasy crop up at the last minute.
    You have done all that and are unglued from home
    Expect LOTS of traffic jams and swarms of scooters all over Java
    Keep having fun and keep posting

    SALUT,
    Avons entendu qu’il y avait eu un tremblement de terre au large de l’Indonesie cette nuit chez vous mais qu’il n’ y aurait peut etre pas de tsunami. Si vous en avez eu connaissance vous nous le ferez savoir. Nous souhaitons que ce fut rien ou vous etiez.
    A bientot.
