Snorkelling and Trekking in Bali Barat

The food at nusa bay is amazing . Best we have had so far ( and we have had alot of great food ! )

We started nature and wildlife trek at 7am with a ranger and then headed straight to amazing snorkelling . Was a wondeful day of being on the ocean and getting to see some beautiful stuff . Snorkelling is so calming and relaxing for me ; always heightens my awareness that there is a whole hidden world beneath the water 
Beautiful 

Afternoon was spent swimming and eating and napping and reading here at nasu bay with all the deer and the hundreds of monkeys :)

I have booked a creambath for my hair tonight with scalp massage and a 30 minute power back massage . At these prices cheaper than having a marguerita!!

Tonight we are going to cuddle in our king bed and watch the funniest movie ever that we saw but bear has not ( The Week Before ) 
I hope bear is having a great time ! He says he is but he also seems annoyed by us much of the time ( eventhough we are super cool fun parents who arent even annoying !!)

I guess we shouldnt be surprised as so many people i told that we were coming with 18 yr old son alone were in shock . And people we met on plane too said the same . We have tons of great times and great conversations he just doesnt look thrilled all the time . And we expect him to be !

Cant complain though bear is a great travel buddy and is generally relaxed and fun and very very independant . 

Ps its funny bc right after i wrote this part of blog we had the very best evening with bear ( aka bali bear now ). Came back to the treehouse and he had fallen asleep outside on our treehouse chairs and deck and he asked me to lay down on his chair with him and just hugged me :)))))) made me feel so good and happy . I think we are spoiled with the constant outward love and affections we get from chase every  moment of every day !! Addicted! Even beauty who is much less affectionate  is much more needy than bear and so takes affection alot although pretends not to want it !! So these hugs and cuddles from bear a real treat !

We were all wearing our balinese robes that evening in the treehouse ( so light and comfy ) so we decided ro go eat dinner in them ! Had to convince hubby a bit ; alot as not his type of thing to be stared at but i convinced him that was stupid and not playful ! Lol 
Dinner in robes and our funniest movie of a lifefine on the balcony all cuddles under the stars :) heaven 

Was so cool in today to see all the offerings made ( all over bali three times a day ) ans the prayers they say with the offerings . What a  grateful religion . Beautiful people . 
My spa services were so simple . A nice woman washing my hair for an hour in a bamboo hut was all it was . No music - no hot towels - no fuss . Very simple organized culture . Unimposing and peaceful and friendly  
I could really learn from these people !

Off for morning at beach and then to long  drive back to last destination in canguu with stop at our fifth  and final temple tannah lot
