Janet's parents visit Bali

Our guest house has been busy! Two days before Peter's parents left, Janet's parents arrived for a weeks stay. Here is a guest post from Wes and Mary.

How wonderful to have been able to travel to Bali to observe the life style that Peter, Janet and the kids are enjoying. Such a departure from Toronto!!! So many highlites for us: from enjoying the bamboo guest house, to being a little overwhelmed by the fascinating beauty of the big house. I will never eat rice again without thinking how labour intensive it is to grow, but also just how beautiful rice paddies are which contribute so hughly to the richness of the Balinese culture. The compounds and temples, just numbers alone, were so interesting, not to mention the traffic and all the motor bikes!!!!

Our driver, Agus, is such a special person and will never be forgotten. Our meals in the house and out were delicious, with Wes's birthday dinner being outstanding. It was wonderful to see the kids and to tour the Green School. Our host and hostess made our stay so welcoming and just could not do enough. Not their fault that we both fell!!!!! This is certainly a very special place and lucky for us, they went and so did we. The bike ride was scary but fun Janet - and thanks for insisting I go. If I was asked to rate our stay, I would say 10 out of 10, and that's hard to beat.
