5 weeks-countdown begins

This will be the 4th trip to Bali and the one I didnt really want to go on. Robin decided about a month after our return last year to book again. I love Bali but felt it was time just to have a couple of short breaks at home or at least close to home. Last year my eldest daughter married 2 weeks prior to our Bali trip...she did schedule her marriage around our holiday. Since we did everything ourselves catering, flowers, decoration I was exhausted and yes the Bali trip did help.
So on the 16th April we are headed to Bali again. Staying in Sanur as we love it there. Everything on your doorstop without the hustle and bustle of Kuta and Seminyak. This time we have opted to rent a villa. The last 2 years we have stayed in a small place called Starling Villa's also in Sanur. 6 seperate rooms around a central courtyard and pool. Reading is something I do a lot of whilst in Bali and as nice as the rooms are there is really nowhere for me to sit or curl up and read outside or inside other than the bed.
This is likely to be our last trip to Bali for a least a couple of years and even though I have posted JBR's each trip I though I may as well get into blogging. This way I can record day by day and not have to try and remember all the details after I return home. Now its time to prepare for 18 days away...mmm massages,dentist appointments more massages...and a visit to Wina Optical for some new glasses. Also seeing all the people we have met on the previous 3 trips....did I say I didn't want to go to Bali......
