Does a surfing lesson make me a surfie?



Today brought a new experience - surfing. A few days ago I found a surfing teacher on the beach of Legian. He was spot on. Jeffery showed myself and two ladies we met by the pool how to stand up and we had a ball for a couple of hours. I can now say that I’ve surfed and I’m keen to go again before we leave.

Tonight we kicked back with a cheap-n-cheerful meal at a small cafe near our hotel.

We’re off to ride an elephant tomorrow, which will be another new experience.

Ten things I've noticed in Bali


Still water
Litter on beaches
People are more inclined to make eye contact and stare
People are more inclined to smile and say g’day
Yes mister, you want trans-spot?
The moodiness of a tropical thunder storm
The luscious taste of tropical fruit for breakfast
The hardness of Bali beach sand
The beauty of the touch of a masseuse
Unbelievable sunsets touching still water
