Hello you all,
We continue our adventure with a mad pace. Lots and lots of experiences and discoveries in such a short time. We spent two days in a small island called Lembogan. We stayed in a small villa with a private plunge pool (big and warm as your bath hot Anne) and superb views of the sea voyage on the high seas in a small boat went well. When we arrived, the chips were happy to relax a little. As with all trips, small contingency from a fall, Emy and I have a skinned knee. Nothing serious but enough to get the disinfectant in the hospital (because we crossed the island with the bare minimum in our backpacks, not much from us). As is rudimentary but good ..... we found our scrapes and does not prevent us to go snorkelling. This time, even at sea Eve was thrown into the water. We found great funds with other varieties of fish of all colors. The food is really good, have lunch, dinner and supper on the edge of the sea, with breathtaking scenery. A Lembogan, there are lots of fishermen and seaweed farmers mostly. People are very nice. From our villa, it is massaged, the time the girls sit and bathe. We walked through small paths along the sea to visit Mushroom Bay.
Yesterday, back in Sanur to retrieve our luggage. En route to Ubud, we visited a beautiful orchid garden. In Ubud we had a little trouble finding a decent hotel (albeit very minimal, we have seen on rice fields and swimming pool). Here, we are really at the heart of Bali, in the heart of culture. A charming small town surrounded by rice fields, we came across people from around the world. We walk through the streets or there are thousands of small shops and coffee. At the market, everyone wants us to try on clothes. Emy chooses a dress that I am offered to 80 000 rup (approx. $ 10) that ultimately you pay 30 000 (approx. $ 4) is believed to have made a good deal, then come see us for all that we buy more than 20 000 rup. Eve wants to know anything, she wants to exit or turn around all of us.
At this price, my first thought was to buy a hundred to give the orphanage we will visit a village or poor. Assist people in buying and restoring here here .... We had dinner around a garden with a lotus dance and music lesson.
This morning, as the party to Eve, we took him, according to his wishes, lots of birds and reptiles. We saw more than 1000 species of birds from around the world, lizards, crocodiles, giant tortoises and komodo dragons of course .... sort of crocodile-faced dragon (Friends of Emy and Eve, we took lots of pictures for you). For those who read the book "Eat, Pray, Love", I met Ketut, the sage of Bali, which was still 100 years. He read the lines of the hand. This is my third life, I have a very good karma. In life, I'm lucky I live and old. I am very lucky, I succeed I will undertake everything, I'll spare you, it could go to my head .... short for those who have read is really like in the book, a quiet old man, very nice, a moment of pure happiness. Even Eve and Emy, sitting without shoes of course, on the carpet of Ketut, adopted a calm attitude and they demonstrated extreme patience. I think they were very intrigued. Then we also went for a drink filled with health vitamin in Wayam (herb doctor friend of Elizabeth). They cleaned my knee with leaves .... I do not know what an experience in itself ... It gave me a bag with honey, oil, I do not know what, peppercorns , who hates me, and a few other bags to purify my blood and my whole body .... Good thing we have a whole other medicine at home. Perhaps the burnt offerings and incense they bring me additional protection. We then dined at a cafe organic matter to remain ... mode health .... We found a brownie and Eve could blow over 8 candles brought from home, of course. You can not imagine how Bali is an island rich in culture and beliefs. It's really fun to discover other ways of living.
Always pressed to write, I forbid you to tell on our return.
Kisses Phil, grandparents and all of you ... We often think of you.
