Days 40-46: Tanjung Benoa, Bali

Sorry for the long delay in posting, we’ve been relaxing completely! We’re in Bali now, at the four star Aston Bali Resort ($55/night, thanks to wotif.com!), enjoying the beautiful beach, warm sun, and nothing to do! The last month has been fairly tiring (but wonderful) and we have a lot of recuperating to do. I’ve been playing a bit of volleyball, and we went jet-skiing, but other than that it’s mostly been sleeping, laying on the beach, swimming, and reading! It’s a rough life, but someone’s got to do it.

Bali is truly beautiful, and the people are tremendously friendly. We’re only 8 degrees south of the equator, so it’s predictably hot and humid, but not terribly so – temperature is around 28 degrees Celsius most days, and probably 70% humidity, but between swimming in the ocean and pool (both probably 24 degrees, a nice bath water!) and the breeze coming in off the ocean, it’s fine being outside.

We'll have to more to report about Bali later, after we do some more exploring, but for now the beach is calling.
