Lazy days Too
Yes, did you ever try to do ‘nothing’? Not as easy as it sounds.
I cannot just sit there and look at Carol, so I
tried reading a book, but got side tracked by my surroundings. Carol thought it
a good idea to get a full body massage at our place next door, the place we
liked, Budaya Spa.
Both of us received a full body massage for the
amazing price of 130,000 Rupiah.
They worked us over, flipped us around and
kneaded the heck out of us for U.S. $9. They used salves, oils, took 1 hour
each, and fed each of us a tea and fruit snack. They were thankful that we came
to them, we were thankful for the good job they did and all was well in Bali.
We lazed.
We could not really walk around, it rained too
much. Yes, we each had a poncho, or we could have used the umbrellas Uma Sari
provides, but we felt like being lazy.
For dinner we wanted to go to Pici Pici, a
restaurant next door but when we stepped into the streets most of the lights
went out on the street.
Total darkness… there might have been a short
from the rain someplace?
We never found out why we had no electricity
but now it was easy which of the surrounding places was open for dinner. Well,
Pici Pici had candles burning; they told us we could eat albeit from a limited
menu. Normally our daily choice of restaurants is extensive, there were food
places all along the street, and it seemed that every 3rd house had
some kind of food to offer. We chose, that night, the Pizza place next door
going the other way from Pici Pici, and enjoyed the one light bulb that gave us
light, lit by a hidden battery or generator, I am sure. Vegetarian Pizza was
our choice that evening, yummy. Carol tried a Banana/Pineapple lassie. Kind of
like a smoothie.
Believe me; it was not easy to do
‘nothing’.
