The next few days!

Woke up not feeling the best, not quite BB but considering this was our 4th trip to Bali and we have never been sick on any of them, it was not nice. Felt bad all morning so no breakfast for me just some dry toast. Thankfully no vomiting. We had planned a half day trip to Uluwatu and surrounds and then have dinner at Jimbaran I still went along and tried to enjoy the things we saw. No dinner for me either. Its hard watching others eat....Still no better the next day..dry toast again...R woke with the same thing the next day! I dont think it was food related as we ate different things. Anyway that all but wiped out a couple of days for both of us. R recovered after getting some antibiotics. I went from feeling ok to not over a few days..then decided also to get antibiotics. That helped to get on with the holiday. On a day when we were both feeling better we went to visit Nyoman's family in Sangeh which is near Ubud. They put on a lovely spread of food for us and we played with the children and looked around the compound. Next day we had breakfast at Mona Lisa, good eggs benedict...planned a few hours trip today heading to Goa Gajah and Gunung Kawi. Considering I was weakened by the stomach bug I somehow manage the 315 steps down and back. Lovely peaceful place and couldnt understand why we hadnt been before this. Finished the day back in Sanur ordering some leather goods to be made. Days are a bit of a blur as I went from feeling ok to feeling awful. So we took advantage of the feeling ok and tried various place to eat. Star Bar, Rib, Three Monkeys, Mona Lisa Cinnamon. Massages,pedicure/manicure at Expression were excellent. Had a couple of requests so went to Sukawati market to find an elusive object and was over the moon when I found it. Also did a trip to Candi Kuning spice market to stock up on vanilla beans (still think I paid too much but still so much cheaper than here). So while we were in that direction decided to go to Bedugul and have a bit of a wander. On the way back decided to stop at the Ghost Hotel. What a shame this place never opened it is in such a lovely location. Spent about an hour wandering around and taking some photos. On the way back down R began to have some fits (epilepsy) they are strange vocal that last about 15-20 seconds but he had them all the way back to Sanur. This settled by dinner time. Overall we had a relaxing trip some forced and the rest by choice. Time to start picking up the glasses and the leather to make sure we have time for any adjustments.
