Bali living
5th day on Bali and loving this tropical paradise. The waves have been really good, a little on the too big side over the weekend, but have settled down into more of a comfortable range. Apparently you can surf nearly every day of the year here and have good conditions somewhere on the island. The level of surfers here is quite incredible and there are a lot of them, but there are so many waves to go around you are bound to get some all for yourself. Still at the surf camp and planning on going by ferry over to Lombok the day after tomorrow. Hoping there will be less crowds in the lineup over there which is the reputation. Been keeping up yoga here and feel like I am sweating out a pound or 2 a week. The food is very good here and plentiful so staying very healthy. Thinking about buying a used surfboard to cut down on my costs since I have been renting one everyday and plan to stay another couple of weeks. The people of the island, especially the surf guides that I have gotten to know, have been very friendly. They laugh and play games with each other constantly but have good hearts and are kind. Between surf sessions at the camp are when everyone relaxes, laying around the pool or in a hammock, play tennis when it is not too hot although I haven’t played due to lack of sneakers, and eat the fresh food and drink strong Indonesian coffee or fresh juice. I have read about 4 or 5 books since I started this trip and probably will finish the 2 I have with me. Overall a really nice place to be!

I am sooooo happy for u!!! I just love reading these post!!! My cousin lived on the beaches Bali for months and surfed EVERY day!!! He treasures those memories…as will u
Get home to us safely someday…but until then…wishing nothing but good weather,health,good surf,and a open heart.
