feels good to be back home..
i came here too many times not to make it my home..
i miss the crazy chickens clucking..
i miss the crazy dogs barking…
i miss the crazy traffic horning & peeping…
i miss the ‘good mornings’ from the people here when i do my cat stretch first thing i step out of my room…
i miss the many many other things..
small or big…
we surprisingly didn’t wake up too late on our first day..
i think it’s all the anticipation turned excitement!!…
we are now finally in bali!!..
and of course..
i miss the d.i.y feeling of doing all the home improvements in the simplest way…
erm..yeah..that’s gedai “trimming” the tree..
the sight of making offerings for prayers is just touching even in a very small way..
the one thing that i crave for almost everyday..
whether or not when i am in bali..
this bubur is really nice & tasty!!..
taste very home cooked & made with a lot of love.. 🙂
i got so hooked on it since the first time rai brought me to try it at krisna cafe..
it’s time to get out there after filling our stomachs!!
it’s afterall kenn’s first day in bali!!..
we were going to have a bbq that night..
so the right thing to do will be to shop for food!!..
lots & lots of food!!..
(yupz…kenn can eat..no doubt about that..)
3 person on a bike + a lot of shopping later on is going to be tricky…
rai took kenn with him..
while evi (ibu’s daughter) took me with her…
looks like he’s having some local fun down the small & not so busy road of sanur…
(yupz..with no helmut…)
loving the sun…
(something i can give a miss back in singapore)..
kenn the tourist in the supermarket..
since he can’t do the cooking or the buying..
he can just do the pushing..carrying…& eventually the eating… 😛
rai – “let’s go get the fish from the beach..”
us – “ok!!”..
& at the beach the fish stalls literally are…
you just can’t get any closer to the source already…
to be honest..
i have never seen fish so fresh before..
(not counting the times when i was still fishing of course…when fish just comes out from the sea..)
the colour of the scales is beautiful..
seemed like they still sparkle..
the chef picking his ingredient..
& the “winner” is…
i don’t really know what that is…
guessing it’s a grouper..
some deep sea one it seemed like..
from the state of its eyes..
as much as i want to say “poor thing”..
i actually think it’s beautiful..
beautiful in the “freshness” aspect..
leaving the cleaning to the expert..
since i first discovered i like to eat fish..
i also discover that fish cleaning is not for the faint hearted… 😛
waiting for our “catch”…
the chef gets to work..
(in mona’s term – “nekkid”!!…)
nothing else more perfect for the weather..
i miss this very “private” pool..
entertaining the chef over a game of uno…
(thanks for preparing the food!!)..
the first winner..
of course he’s smiling it off… 😉
and the battle continues..
i only have 2 cards left!!..
of course..winning or losing the game isn’t the point…
it’s afterall just uno..
doing something together & enjoying each other’s company is just priceless…
a nice ice breaker for kenn & rai who just met..
but then you know..kenn (the socialite) never has problem meeting people..
