A LIFE OF LEISURE......

Despite my plans to wake up early today and try to get into Bali time , i woke up at 1.30 pm today.....so half a day past before i even saw the daylight....and i need to be fit and ready to go tomorrow morning at 7 to go to Bali treetops and botanical gardens with Lisa some friends and their kids.  This is just a couple of hours after my regular bedtime or no falling asleep time here.....and my body will probably think it will be an afternoon nap when i go to bed at 9pm.


I had a very relaxing day today: went to the beach and had another 1,5 hour full body Balinese massage with my new Balinese friend Nawang, after which i had a fresh fruit juice, a manicure and a pedicure by her daughter and a Gado Gado (vegetable dish with sate sauce).  


Met a very nice english school teacher who used to be an IT consultant before he moved to Bali one year ago.  So we chatted about Baan, ERP systems and our past lives in the real world but by the time the sun set and the cafes on the beach lit their candles, concluded teaching english and running a casa rural provide for a much richer life style then running the rat race....;)


Came home to find my house all cleaned up , with fresh flowers everywhere from Putu ( no,  not Puta...!!) the cleaning lady.  In the altar in the living room she every day puts baskets with donations of food and flowers with a candle and incense for the Gods and spirits around. Maybe that is why i feel so good here......;)   


Now i ´am going to put candles and incense all over my Joglo and prepare my bag for my weekend trip with some nice music and will do my yoga and meditation to prepare my body to go to sleep.


Still did not take any pictures but they will come i promise.....
