I’m back home for a week now and I’m still not in the mood to blog. The travel bug is still in me, and jet lag is not exactly over yet. I’m still thinking of Bali!!!
There are a lot of the above kind of statues which I gather are some deities for protection, not sure and I didn’t ask.
I didn’t take many pictures with the camera I brought with me to Bali. Why?? Coz smart me forgot to bring the battery charger along. The second morning when we were getting ready to ronda the town, the baterries died on me. Good thing my sister brought along a spare camera with her. Sis, “lei hei tak geh”.
Oh, after arriving in Bali, my BM came out very naturally. I thought it would take me a while to speak in Bahasa Melayu!! Just seeing the signs in Bali were enough to kick the memory cells into full gear.
Of course some words like this Oleh-Oleh I didn’t know what it was. I thought it meant furniture. Turns out it’s a souvenier shop, a shop to ketuk tourist kau kau, yet we bought quite a bit there. This picture was taken on the free and easy day (5th day out of 6).
Since coming back to MN, my camera is still sitting in my hand carry. Yes, I still have my 2 big luggage and hand carry laying on the floor with clothes that need to be washed still crying out for me to move them. I’m just so out of it and going back to work 3 days after I got back was tough. Will download the pictures from my camera to Flickr this weekend.
My first day back to work was Monday, Dec 19 and guess what?????? My vacation to Bali, Singapore, Ipoh, Singapore was so fabulous I forgot what my network password to my PC. Even the passwords to the security questions were blur to me. No choice had to call Help Desk since I tried more than 3 times to answer the security questions and failed majorly.
Needless to say, my write up on Bali is not going to happen soon, or probably might not even resurrect at all based on my lack of motivation! 
There are some really good pictures my sister and I took that I want to put up here but then they are already in FB. There is one picture I took that so reminded me of Great Ocean Road. It’s not exactly the same but the fact that the jagged edge that faces the Indian Ocean and the sea eroded cliffs reminds me a lot of it.
The dogs at home are damn thrilled to see me home. Sticking to me like leeches especially Chase. Ranger’s mobility is not good, so he does not climb upstairs anymore. He will move to the living room or dining room wherever DB is. Poor Ranger….we started him back on prednisone again because of the mold outside. There is not a flake of snow on the ground. The weather is really freaky….we are having temperatures in the 30′s Fahrenheit. Some nights the temps stayed above freezing. This Christmas will be a very brown Christmas. Christmas hymnes are playing the background as I’m typing this. No big celebration just the 2 of us roasting a whole chicken with mash taters, sweet potatoes (ladened with butter and brown sugar) and green bean casserole. I don’t fancy ham, so chicken it is for me.
Again, till my next post….HAVE A BLESSED CHRISTMAS, peeps.
and also took some winter backyard scene before going back to bed.
