Moving On Again

Bali has been good to us. The snorkeling is truly spectacular. The biodiversity is overwhelming and the clarity is fantastic. We saw lots of turtles, a shark, titan trigger fish, squid, and the most colorful and unique coral in the world.

But with each excursion out of the first-world luxury of Kuta (the tourist neighborhood of Bali) we are challenged by questionable cleanliness, inexact transportation, possibly lethal bug attacks, strange bathroom facilities, and unknown food safety. It is definitely as challenging as it is entertaining.

Tomorrow we will fly out of Bali. We believe we will make another trip here. But tomorrow we fly through one over night in Singapore and then on to Thailand where we will be boarding our cruise. We are looking forward to having the same place for 14 days.

Today we got hair cuts. This includes wash, cut, head massage, conditioning treatment, and blow dry for $18 TOTAL (not each) plus tip. We will miss this. And dare I mention that we are going to Bubba Gump's for dinner? A last bit of Americana for a while!
