Happy Holidays from Bali! We spent a delightful Christmas in Munduk, a small hilltop town, overlooking rice paddies, valleys and the ocean in the distance! We were the only guests in a fantastic, quaint hotel complete with a porch and open-air bathroom, both facing the most spectacular views I've ever seen in my life (truly!). This is one of those places that you want to tell everyone and no one about. Everyone because it is just that perfect, and no one because you want to selfishly keep in hidden and hope that it never spoils. While it was rather rainy in Munduk, we still enjoyed our time playing cards, watching a couple movies, hiking to a waterfall and attending a Christmas dinner complete with gamelan music and Balinese dancing.
Now we are in the North staying on a beach in Permuteran at a hotel with all the essentials- a pool, a pool side bar, a spa, a good restaurant, a large beach, one big ocean, a few hills close by for hiking...it's a nice oasis for a few days....despite the mosquito that found its way past our mosquito net last night and decided to nibble all over my face (as the rest of my body was covered by the sheet). I woke up this morning with a large bump on my forehead and cheek, and a swollen eyelid! Yes, it bit my eye. not very nice.
That's all for now - this internet cafe is expensive!
Happy New Year!
Love,
Laura and Jon
