I can NOT believe it. My girl dubbed by her friends and teachers in Singapore as a real shop-a-holic, said tonight I have had enough of shopping. Jess and I just look at one another in absolute disbelief. She said tommorow I just want to chill by the pool. So I guss since it is the last day, OMG that's gone so quick. I should just let her. Besides maybe she can just keep an eye on Jayden and Ben, whilst Jess and I get the last minute things. That is IF we have forgotton to buy anything, and I think not. Maybe we'll all have a chill day.  

Can't wait to see Vic, I have really missed him, soppy but true.

We all had a fantastic time today. We had photos with a chimpanese. He was really lovable, and the tiger cubs too cute, we got photos pat them. They are only 2 months old. Baby Preston just wanted to hit them. Like he does everything he gets excited about. His thumb is not bothering him at all.

I kinda spoilt myself today. We went to the silver place I think in Ubud. Anyway we were in this huge place with loads of hand made silver jewelery and picture and all sorts of stuff made from silver. I don't wear jewelery much. A pair of earings and a gold ring. I don't even wear my engagement and wedding rings, only cause I need to get them resized. I'm a lot bigger than when we got married. So I found a pair of lovely earings and they were oonly about $18 Au, but then I was showen a nice pendant that went with it. And then they showed me a really nice bracelet to match. Autually they showed me a few. But the one I really liked was $175 au at first. Then of coursea nice silver chain to put the pendant on. The whole lot eventually I got for $200 au. I did ok but jessica and nat are both much better at bartering than me. I think I prefer it at the big department stores. If I see a bargain that better there I don't need to think anymore about it just do I want it or not. Jess has this lady she's been going to and friend have gone to her for years and years. You don't barter with her she gives rock bottom price all the time.

She such a nice lady too.

Hi guys, having for the most part a fabulous time here in Bali. Shopping is awesome. I have photos of me in sereval different deckchairs. It's great when I get home I definately will post photos. Nat and I have taken an hour out of our busy shopping schedules to jump on the internet and keep in touch with friend and family. PLus I thought I'd better clear my email box, sure enough there was 66 to check.

We had one terrible day yesterday. I guess everyone worse nightmare for a foriegn country is needing medical help. Boy did we need it, my daughter Jess nearly jumped on a plane home. Baby Preston had the end of his thumb badly servered, almost off in fact. He had surgery yesterday to stitch it back. 9 stitches under general anertetic. But he was ok to come back with us by the end of the day. And lucky we took out travel insurance because it was not cheap. So far the bill is just over 12 and 1/2 million rupea and thats not including today s check up and fridays.  But he's ok and that's the main thing. It was a really large hospital and they treated us really well. Hopefully no more dramas.

And lots more shopping and fun to come. 

Almost on the plane....Waiting waiting waiting  , SO EXCITING. It's been over 15 years since I went on a plane. That was to America.
