bali part 2, or last day of luxury

So this was our last day in the nice spa that Sophie booked us; a really beautiful spot that I was just aching to get out of. It’s one thing to be pampered for a couple days, but completely another to tarry too long. Our last full day we got some very nice massages, ate fried food made to satisfy australians, and rested on the beach. Most of the jet lag had worn off, except that we were still waking up with the sunrise. Afternoon naps did help, though. We never did find out the story of that ship that was run aground, maybe half a mile out to sea, but I seem to see ships like that a lot; there was one in mexico, as well.

ratatat in SF

So, in my last post I was complaining about having too much to do. I should have maybe been more careful what I wished for. I had a bit of an accident; I fractured my tibial plateau, for those at home that can’t read an MRI. I was practicing for my DMV exam on my motorcycle and bumped the throttle; next thing I knew I was in the bushes. I’d love to continue learning to ride when I’m healed, but really, I have too many other things going at once to give riding the attention it needs not to kill me.

apcera halloween

Technically, this was Friday before halloween, but it was a good time to party. They had a costume contest, and good food, sweets. Then those of us that live in the east bay headed over to Cato’s for some beers and late dinner. 7-10 of us crowded around a table talking and drinking and eating tatchos (natchos, but tater tots instead of chips). Good times.

florence and the machine

Just went to this concert, and it was a lot of fun. I tried to post these from the phone, but ran into some odd ssh issues that I still can’t figure out. Could be the beer. Anyway, photos:

cruise to st francis

So, earlier today, I was at something of a loose end as to what to do with myself, and I found out our friends Peggy and cris were going to go on a little cruise. At first it was going to be to Tiburon, but when we got to the boat, it seemed a bit choppy for that crossing, so we went to the St. Francis Yacht club instead. It’s a nice place.
