A couple of posts ago I spoke of meeting my wife so that she can be my travel companion for the second half of this adventure. My flight landed first, and I hung out in the airport until hers landed 3 hours later. While in India I met a well-traveled older couple from the west coast of the United States. I asked them where their favorite place in the world was, and like many people the lady’s quick answer was home. I usually give the same answer first too. She knew I was looking for a special place to travel to and after looking at her husband, she followed up with Bali. Her husband agreed. At the time it put a smile on my face, because it was the place that my wife decided would be a good place to meet when I was making plans. The Bali experience has been welcoming from the start.
Since we arrived very late, I booked a hotel that had an incredible rate which included breakfast, got good reviews, and was very close to the airport. Grandmas Plus Airport Hotel may not sound appealing as a name for a place to stay but it was modern, clean, the grounds inside the compound were nice, the staff was friendly, and best of all the breakfast was excellent. We were only there for a few hours, but it was so good, I will try to book it on the night before we leave Bali.
Internet access has been spotty here in Bali and my laptop has been giving me security warnings about the WiFi that are a bit worrisome. Uploading photos to this website has been slow and it has put me way behind. I am happy to be with my wife again and we have gone on several tours. The picture above is of her on one of those adventures. Hopefully, soon I will have a click here button that works. But for now, I just want to get a post done and online. My wife’s friends are texting her; wondering if she is OK.
