Geo: -8.51927, 115.263So today Made and Ketut (The Guest House's Official Driver) and I took off after brunch for a day out. (I now have brunch everyday, I'm getting so lazy here in Ubud!)

yeah, this guy was not warm and fuzzy. Made was visibly nervous, and kept telling me not to get to close. "Aggressive, Suss-Anne, aggresssive, not too close" LOL, he was really scared!

Yeah, these were like one of the few cuties in the Reptile park. I liked the iguanas too, but Made wouldn't pick them up! <br>And I'd hasten to call the Komodo's cute! One bite from them, and you die a slow death the next day from
the venom in their saliva. Then they come find you where you died and eat you whole. Not cool!

Yeah, these rice terraces were amazing. I took a million pictures, definetly one of these needs to end up in a frame. These are just the kind of images I was picturing in my mind for this visit to Asia. You just can't believe it, but the
rice plants are like a flourescent green. It's like they radiate the sun, it just doesn't seem real.

LOL, well I did just extend my visa for another 30 days! So I'll be in Bali at least a month and a half, and I originally ballparked Bali for 2 weeks. And seeing as this is the first stop on my trip, I'm guessing it might be a little long
er than 3 months in total. =)

This guy was really, really not ok with me. <br>There are far too many bats in Indonesia, and not all of them are in cages.

From Mom I am just loving all your beautiful photographs. They are adding so much to your travelogues. The flora and fauna are so beautiful, (especially to a Mom who is looking out her window right now to a heavy snowfall that has total
ly covered the grounds here in western Massachusetts.) Love, Mom
