There are many many temples here...every street corner and market place there is a Hindu temple.
Wherever you walk, every entrance to hotels and stores there are offering to appease the badgering spirit of each place. Talking with some folks who have lived here and long time, I was told that many of these offering when placed at stores or hotels are to cleanse the place from all the evil spirits that us foreigners bring in with us. They want us here but at the same time having to keep the air clean from all the evil we bring with us. Strange how it all works out. ANYWAY... there is a temple here for monkeys and we went to see the imps at play. OK..not so much at play and not so innocent in all their frolicking. Scott was jumped on from the back because they want whatever food we may carry with and Nick was bit...well, attacked with an open mouth. Fortunately, small boy moves quicker then mad monkey. I kept my distance, talked quietly and firmly to all these monkeys with attitudes. This day was full of other interesting events as well. We went to a Bali dance, the volcano and rice paddies, coffee and spice plantation and then finally home. Just a few more days and we will be flying home. As the time gets closer we become more and more ready. Today the boys are putting in their last surf, Mijo and myself may just get our hair done. We also have a lot on our minds...things are brewing.

And also we ensure that when we enter in this specific blog site we see to it that the topic was cool to discuss and not a boring one.
Oh we will be glad when you are "home". This means, selfishly for us, that we don't have to worry about you as much. Of course, as my son said when I hated to see him go to Houston several years ago, "Bad things happen when you least expect them, and in the MOST unlikely places!"
The control we think we have over our world must cause God to laugh at times....
