Bali in July

It seems like a log of Indonesian bloggers are in Bali this month (probably due to school vacations and such). I've been here with my family for the past two and a half weeks. Mostly it's been a time for me to get a root canal which has somewhat clouded the vacation, but other than that the weather has been wonderful up in the north. My wife and the kids have enjoyed being back home visiting with their aunts and uncles and cousins and friends.

I was able to get my laptop repaired at Rimo Mall which is just a great place for a techie. They have just about everything that you need there. I just wish that they were located up in the north rather than in Denpasar.

I'll write some more about Singaraja with a few photos in the next blog.

What I've found interesting is that in just the past 17 days the number of tourists seems to have exploded. When we were returning from Denpasar on Saturday, there seemed to be tourists everywhere on the road. Good for the local economy, but in terms of getting around the island, they just clog up an already overcongested traffic situation.

Well, time for breakfast. More on Bali later
