Yesterday Ben and I headed south to Uluwatu and scored some fun little waves in the afternoon all to ourselves at a little right hand reef break, whose name remains unknown. Today is Nyepi, the Balinese New Year, a day on which the Balinese all remain in their homes and silently fast- it is a day of introspection for them. We thought this only applied to Balinese and that we could go surf today, but when we tried to leave our place, they informed us that this would not be happening. So we're in the room all day! Good thing we've got books, movies, and super foods to carry us through! Tomorrow morning we fly to Sumbawa!
Oh yeah- on the Balinese calendar, today is the first day of 1934... never thought I would get to experience the 30's, but Bali is full of surprises!
