Indulge me.....I am loving that we had the opportunity to take a great family holiday......
and on that holiday I loved.....
* Seeing this lady work daily in her little tailor business in a back street...creating the most beautiful sewn cut work.....
* Learning new things about the Balinese culture straight from the locals themselves...
* The lushness and hidden beauties we discovered as we traveled by foot....
* The braveness of our family to try local cuisine....
* It may have been accompanied by some favourites not so often had drinks from home....but we never get them served in glass at home...
* I loved the my kids just fitted right back in this time and took it all in their strides...
* That food.....mmmm I could eat their rice dishes every day....
* Celebrating our national day in another country was certainly fun....
* That my guys have no aversion to exploring on foot...even if it was a long way....
* That despite it being a bust tourist season .....it was very quiet most places we went....
* The abundance of that beautiful Frangipani that is everywhere filling the air with it's perfume....
* No shortage of fun for the kids right outside our door.
* The punt on the accommodation that paid off....
* The decision to take my new camera and loving using it like a proper tourist....
* and finally I am loving that I was brave enough to try something out of my comfort zone.
* Love my family....thanks guys..... (Loved being away with extended family too)
(There were four adults and six children in our party......we arrived three day after the rest of family......4 of the children had no idea were we meeting up until we bumped into each other in the swimming pool....classic suprises and responses)
