Banana pancake
I just devoured a banana pancake for breakfast and am now uncomfortably full. Luckily I have this view to distract me. The last couple days on Gili Air have been amazing. It is kind of like camping at a fancy resort. We have nice beds and AC, but we need headlamps at nighttime, and we walk through a field of cows and chickens to get to our room. We've done yoga and meditation with hippie island expats for the last couple days, and it had been great! So far this morning, our hotel has played TLC, dire straits, frank sinatra,and the theme from Hawaii 5-0. Also great. Headed back to Gili trawagnan for a couple more days of island fun before heading back to Bali.

Gili Trawangan
After a scary boat ride, followed by a horse-drawn buggy ride, we safely made it to our hotel on the gili islands!

What would Elizabeth Gilbert do?
We're in Ubud, Bali (made famous by Elizabeth Gilbert with Eat Pray Love). So far, it is amazing. We've gone on a health kick. We're going to yoga every day, and drinking at least 2 fruit smoothies per day. In the evenings, we go to cultural activities, like Balinese dance shows and cooking classes. For the record, Balinese dance shows are kind of weird and not worth your time, no matter what the guide books tell you. We're heading to the Gili Islands on Saturday morning!

The zombies are coming
Seriously. Now is the time to freak out.
Stock up on tuna fish, twinkies, and munitions at your local Wal-Mart ASAP. If the shiz goes down within the next month or so, the rendezvous point is Bali.
Many thanks to Erin B. for sending the article :)
