Dune Bashing in the Desert

The dunes + my boy Sam + Sam's Jeep = Good times in the sand

Fossil Rock and Camel Rock are popular dunes to drive on and camp.

Bali Photos

Our house came with breakfast served each morning
It was nice waking to the singing birds and fresh fruit.
The neighbor's dog was a great friend
who seemed to follow the bacon smell into our house.
Bella enjoyed our visitor.
The pool was placed within the gardens and
cool and refreshing to jump in.
The fish pond and Buddhist sanctuaries placed around the grounds were calming.
Loving life in our Bali haven

Where can I find a motor bike for hire?
Chilling at the cafe with the beach across the street.
Beach views
Side streets
The communal offerings all over Bali are a unique part of the island's lifestyle. 
Sunset walks with the waves crashing,
enjoying the water and sand.
The wind was perfect for kites,
especially the boat shaped kites floating above.
Happy hour on cushions set up on the beach.
Waves crashing

Temple on the lake
The clouds were drifting through on the mountain sides
creating a surreal effect.

And you thought your trunk was crowded?
Monkeys and pigeons snacking together
Our new friend
The girls with the monkeys
The baby monkey was incredibly cute
Showing empty hands tells the monkeys you are not there to feed them.

The temple is filled with monkeys

Somehow the day got more beautiful
The rainbow came near sunset as we waited for a traditional dance
Rosie is over the rainbow
The rocky coast was a nice sunset view
The dances started after sun down
The actors with masks really put on a show
The girls got to pose with the cast
They even learned some moves
Rosie in deep thought
