  • A bit about Bali Here's some trivia for you about Bali: Minimum wage is $70USD/month and the employer has to include lunch. You don't pay taxes if you make less than $200USD/month. You have to pay for your own health care and education. Posted by McNouye in McNouye | Sep 29, 2009
  • Paradise on a non backpacker budget Audrey's mother arrives tonight and we decided that the simple beauty of the little beach surfer hut was not going to be her ideal vacation getaway. We figured we would book into a p Posted by McNouye in McNouye | Sep 28, 2009
  • Monkey Lovin in Ubud, Bali Ubud, Bali. Yesterday morning I started out my day with a tasty breakfast under the veranda, by the pool, at my hotel. I was well prepared for the day with my rented motorbike and map in hand. Posted by wrldjumper in Where in the World is Gretchy | Sep 28, 2009
  • Spring Break on steroids (Kota, Bali) Okay, so I finally made it to the island of Bali. First stop was the tourist area consisting of Denpasar, Seminyak, and the world famous Kota. I stayed with two local people (thanks to couch surfing). What Posted by wrldjumper in Where in the World is Gretchy | Sep 28, 2009
  • Balangan One of the most interesting things about traveling meeting interesting and fun people along the way. Having been in this nice little surf spot for ten days, we have seen a wide variety of people come and go. I'm sorry Posted by McNouye in McNouye | Sep 26, 2009
  • Balmy Bandy does Bali Having landed at Denpasar airport in Bali, we made the short trip to Kuta Beach, party capitol of Bali. However, we had not anticipated how busy it was going to be and as a result spent the next two hours Posted by markg22 in MGCB | Sep 26, 2009
  • Indonesian Cobra Hunting Note- initials have been used in order to protect the privacy of others. It all started when “D”- an American guy staying at my hostel, invited me to dinner with an English brother and sister duo he had met in Posted by wrldjumper in Where in the World is Gretchy | Sep 23, 2009
  • Balangan When we first arrived, it took a moment to realize we were in paradise. The first thing I did was take a moment to soak it all in, the quiet place with a few people lounging around Posted by McNouye in McNouye | Sep 20, 2009
  • Butt Identification, Please!! UGH Okay, I know I have you wondering about the butt ID thing, but let me start at the beginning. My excursion from Philippines to Indonesia started two days ago.....and that is how long I have been awake. I Posted by wrldjumper in Where in the World is Gretchy | Sep 20, 2009
  • Tremors An earthquake hit Bali this morning, approximately 7am Bali time. Reports indicate that the quake measured between 5.8 and 6.1 on the Richter scale. We were at the dive shop when it hit. A minor tsunami erupted from the swimming pool, Posted by pendleton in The Pendleton Odyssey | Sep 18, 2009
  • Anti-surfing I am not the first parent to notice this, but it seems the harder you steer you child one direction, the greater the chance is that they will rebel and do the exact opposite. You know, the peace loving Posted by McNouye in McNouye | Sep 17, 2009
  • Translation unnecessary It is really cute to see Taro and Kiyoshi play with the little girl Rara (3 yrs) who lives here. She speaks to us in Indonesian and we understand nothing and we speak to her in English and she Posted by McNouye in McNouye | Sep 17, 2009

  • Balangan On our drive to our next destination, Balangan, I thought to myself, what a big mistake this could turn out to be. We drove through barren farmland for about 30 minutes when we finally found a sign for our Posted by McNouye in McNouye | Sep 15, 2009
  • Audrey's rebuttal Ok. I have no rebuttal. Dave is right. I paid her what is equivalent to $5/hr when she only asked for $3. What can I say. She watched our kids sleep for 2 hours. Posted by McNouye in McNouye | Sep 14, 2009
  • Un-haggling I love my wife. I really do. In fact, most people that meet her do. The summer Audrey came into my life, my sisters used to joke about making a TV show called “Everybody Loves Audrey” where each Posted by McNouye in McNouye | Sep 13, 2009
  • Getting out of Dodge I've finally stumbled across a broadband connection and so have just uploaded about a dozen and a half new photos from the last few weeks. I'll just put one or two on this page; if you want to see more, Posted by The Rymans in Rymans At Large | Sep 13, 2009
  • Blood, sweat and orang utans :-) So we arrived in Bukit Lawang on our bargain journey, the last hour provided us with roads that had to be seen to be believed! Potholes all over the roads for miles and so deep you wouldn’t even chance a Posted by bumblebum in Our BIG trip | Sep 12, 2009
  • Sumatra! [applogies: this was written a few days aago...] Hiya! We’re now [or were] in Medan, in Northern Sumatra. Well, as far north as they recommend as the north north is not that nice due to a little trouble with it trying Posted by Big.G in Our BIG trip | Sep 12, 2009
  • Worries Laid to Rest I guess when you only have a handful of toys, you find ways of improvising. I am sitting on the balcony with Kiyoshi at my feet playing cars and arranging our shoes in a neat line and Posted by McNouye in McNouye | Sep 9, 2009
  • Useless Shit Useless Shit On any trip, you end up with some really important stuff that you can't live without, and some less important stuff. Useless stuff. Useless shit. It seems that this time the uselessness of the shit is directly proportional Posted by McNouye in McNouye | Sep 11, 2009
  • Trekking in Munduk, roughing it in Padangbai Apologies upfront for those who take their verb tenses seriously: I began writing this in the present tense while I was still in Munduk, and finished it several days later here in Padangbai, and haven't got the battery power left Posted by The Rymans in Rymans At Large | Sep 7, 2009
  • Nasi Goreng and Little Boats We finally arrived in Legian after a 24 hour journey. The boys were both angels. Neither one of us thought they would be so good. We couldn't have asked for a better arrival. Our flight landed Posted by McNouye in McNouye | Sep 6, 2009
  • Getting to Munduk I have lots of great new photos, but they'll have to wait another day because the internet speed all over the island is horrifically slow and just now I don't have two hours to wait while all the new pics Posted by The Rymans in Rymans At Large | Sep 6, 2009
  • The End Of Java Hiya! We've paid for the flights, booked the Taxi to the airport, and so tomorrow we're on our way to Sumatra! Woo! Today we've done a tour around a couple of temples - Borobudur (the biggest Buddhist temple in the world), Posted by bumblebum in Our BIG trip | Sep 6, 2009
