We have escaped the world known as Bali, with all its enchanting ways. Rowan got Bali Belly (a stubborn intestinal bug) that required Cipro to get rid of. This was from the simple act of eating some lettuce in a wrap in a restaurant that thousands of other westerns eat at, so that does not bode well for a boat-load of tourists. But he's over it like a bad suntan and none too soon either. It doesn't seem possible that we spent a month in the alleged Shangri-La of Indonesia, leaving behind four dogs, a cat, and the bamboo house that we've written about previously. We had a nice sunset dinner (top picture), looking out over the lagoon where fishermen cast their nets until they can no longer see in the darkness. We set sail with our (now regular) driver to take a KLM flight to Singapore before our visa ran out. As we weaved among the scooters, street construction, exhaust, and other taxis, we saw this little black dog on a girl's scooter.
A few hours later we arrived in Singapore, to be met with ultramodern conveniences, a ferris wheel of epic proportions, and tap water you can actually drink. Salads, here we come!
