A Week in Bali

I walked along the beach last night and listened to the play of waves. This was my moment to say goodbye to Bali.

The dolphins were the highlight of my week in Bali. We took a morning dolphin “tour” in Lovina, hoping to see the dolphins up close. We were not disappointed. There were hundreds of dolphins all over, playing, doing air flips and belly flops. I even saw them under the water. I couldn’t stop smiling watching them. The experience was surely worth the early morning wake-up.

During my week in Bali, I spent two nights in Ubud, one night in Kintamani, two nights in Lovina and one night in Kuta. I watched legong dancing in Ubud, climbed Mount Batur around Kintamani, saw dolphins and felt the mist of waterfalls around Lovina, relaxed in Kuta, and did spa treatments several times. I did not enjoying having to bargain for every purchase, even fruit, but I did make some good purchases of Balinese batiks, silver, Balinese puppet dolls and the obligatory tshirt gifts. The week was wonderful. It seems surreal to be back in Nagoya on a cool cloudy day…
