A trip North

Bali is a small island... a tiny dot compared to it's Western neighbour Java. It's 90km by 140km long. About the size of PEI (isn't everything?). But for such a small place, it's incredibly diverse. There are, of course, beaches and rice paddies... but also forests, lakes, and mountains. And the mountains, well they're volcanoes. Seven of them. The last eruption was 1963... so here's hoping one doesn't blow while we're here! This past weekend we drove North from Ubud past some of these volcanoes. It was a bit cloudy so we didn't always have great views, but it was nice to feel the mountain air. We were only planning to go for one night... but we ended up driving right on through to the North coast, and spent a day and a night at the beach over there.
Here's a slideshow from the weekend.

  1. Your weekend trip sounds aamizing, it looks like you guys are haveing an awsome time on bali - many new experiences and inspirations. I have been on Lovina beach myself many years ago for christmas eve, it was stunning as well back then, i liked the dark sand there.

    how do the boys like their new school? and how is everyday life in ubud in your fabouloous open house?

    i good myself, had to come back to toronto for some business stuff but we have decided that we will definetly be making the move to munich over christmas, relocating to central munich feels as the right decision after spending the summer there. otherwise a bit slow on the yoga but i am sure this will change aagain.

    best to all of you, Antje
