We
arrived in Denpasar, Bali on January 18th
and stayed in Kuta for a couple of days, walking around in the labyrinth of
sidewalks between high walls. To get
from our hotel to the beach anywhere else you had to go right, then right, then
right, then right, then leftor you could go straight, then left, then right,
then left, then left, then right againall through a high-walled maze past
Hindu temples and statues with people cruising past on motorbikes with
surfboards. We took surf lessons one
afternoon. With our surfing guru pushing
our boards to help us catch the wave, I was actually able to stand up three
times. I however have not yet caught a
wave by paddling myself fast enough.
Everyone we've met asks how long we've been in Indonesia and when I tell them this
is my first time here, they ask why I can already speak bahasa Indonesia so
well. Sweet! The language study is
really paying off.
