Bali Java 2010

Day 24 & 25 Nov. 22 & 23
Just waiting for Linda and Patt to get back from Hong Kong this evening and then we take off on the evening of the 23rd (actually 01:30 on Nov. 24). It will be good to get home but I hate to leave Bali. I will be buying some presents and taking a last walk down Monkey Forest Road.

Commentary 3
Indonesia grows some of best coffee in the world and they do not have a clue as to how make a good cup of coffee. This is a tea drinking culture. Their coffee will not only blacken your teeth but it will also curl them. Two cups and you look like a warthog coming out of the bush.

Thanks for coming!
Jim, what a wonderful way of expressing your true feeling of the trip you made to Indonesia. I could not help but grinning from time to time reading your expression. I can just imagine how you sang in Semarang. You and your group are a wonderful group of true people ambassadors. Its a great bunch of good Americans who has left a lasting friendship in Yogyakarta and Semarang. Thank you for coming; and do come again at any time. We will be waiting for you all. And so will the Merapi volcano!. In friendship, Arifin.

Sounds like a great FF exchange
Carol and Patricia are friends. Carol telephoned and told me about your blog. It sounds like a wonderful exchange. I have visited Bali, and agree with you. It is a lovely, lovely country with warm and friendly people. I am a member of Oregon's Mid Willamette Valley FF.
