Scoot Scootin`

We have been hanging out in our area since we got back from Ubud. Our place is in Seminyak and then Legian Beach and Kuta Beach are both within scootin` distance away and that is where we have been hanging out. Our mode of transportation is a Honda Scoopy, yes a scooter. I have been elected as the driver...not sure how as I nearly ran into a wall the first time riding it. Let's just say I have come a long way since then and I'm pretty much a local now on this thing. There are about 8 scooters wide on a 2 lane road with cars coming frequently. It was pretty intimidating at the beginning but the more you do it, the more comfortable it becomes. We just go slow and let everyone pass us. Below is our vehicle for two, for the locals it's a vehicle 5+.

We have been heading to the beach everyday around 12-1 and then we try and stay through sunset at 6:15. 2 days this week we went to Legian beach and I decided to try surfing. Clearly I need someone to coach me as I can catch every wave but my feet are clearly not in the right place when I stand up. The 1st day was a little rough but the 2nd day got a lot better and it was more fun. Let's just say I won't be entering any surfing competitions anytime soon.

We have finally went to some dinners that were really good here which is a change to the ones that were just average. We have less than a week left here in Bali which is a bummer but we are super excited for Thailand. We have a couple more sites we want to see here before we take off so we will be heading to those this week. Below is a photo from one of the good dinners we had on "Eat Street" in Seminyak at the restaurant called The Junction.

Until next time!
