Bali

No trip to Indonesia can be complete without visiting my friends Ulli, Nyoman and their son Daniel who live in Bali. This trip was no exception so as the finishing touch I made one final stop at the island of the Gods where after arrival I took a taxi to Ubud. Needles to say I was extremely excited when the taxi dropped me off and I walked the final steps towards Guci Guesthouses.

One evening Nyoman cooked a special meal for us for us and I can still remember the wonderful taste of the banana-flower curry he made that evening. 

As I only had a couple of days in Bali and having the hospitalization in Sulawesi in mind I, for a change, decided to listen to my body and not do extensive sightseeing. With having been to bali already on several occasions I did not feel like I missed out on something so I did the odd walking tour to the center of Ubud and enjoyed the company of Ulli, Nyoman and Daniel. After all they were the reason for my repeated visit to Bali.

Time flew by far to quick for my liking but it was time to go home. According to tradition I invited my friends out for dinner on the last evening of my stay. We went to Nomad, an all time favorite restaurant of ours. It was the perfect way to finish of a more than perfect trip. 

One more night before the long flight home. What an adventure this had been. The last five weeks had been beyond imagination. Thinking back to my adventures just made me realize how vast and diverse Indonesia is. On the flight home I had already made my mind up, this had not been my last trip to Indonesia!
