Mall anywhere
We awoke before the sun and went on a small little walk along the wide beach of Kuta before all the hawkers had risen. A few people were up and about. The weather was cool but we could tell the day was going to be hot. Ezra was just content to be digging a hole looking for clams. A gentleman showed him all sorts of hermit crabs. “I caught one crab. I caught one.”And the list grows of the animals that Ezra and Viena have seen or caught. We rented a boogie board for 50,000 Rupiahs and played in the water. The water was warm and the waves were fairly calm. The waves were not looking like the great awesome Kuta waves that we have heard so much about. We all played in the water and the boogie board was big enough for both Viena and Ezra to ride together with my help to ensure that they were not smacked down into the rough sand. A couple of times they landed on some coral and both had belly rashes that hurt and stopped our play. Nothing a dip in the pool could not cure. A real treat to have these two days before heading off to Malaysia. Viena and Ezra enjoyed jumping from dark tiles to the white tiles in the hallway of the hotel. ANd the Javanese interviews on the beach were hilarious. We finished with a walk to McDonalds late in the evening were we saw HP who is alive and well and still enojing Micky D’s.
