We went on a new teacher trip to the beach yesterday. We went from 2-5. It takes about 40 minutes to get there. The beach was packed. There were so many cars in the parking lots and so many people on the beach. Biggy and I went for a big swim first. We swam out to the baby waves past the volcanic rock. It felt so good to be in the ocean. I don't think I have been in the ocean since Jacksonville. We had been told not to bring sand back with us in the bus. (Impossible... with so much sand at the beach and so many kids on the bus!) But to try and do this, we swam and then I put my cover up on to protect me from the sun and to fit more in with the locals who, mostly, are dressed more modestly. Some are wearing full on leggings and long sleeves. I am sure more to keep their skin white than to be modest at the beach. I did see one chica who strutted her Korean ass hanging out of her bikini and tattoos on her back. No modesty or white skin there. Anyways, Biggy and I and some of the other kids played in this nice little pool after that. We dug rivers and moats. Jonny walked up the road and found a place to sit and told us what was up there. We will have to go back another time where we can take the time to look around more. There was no way Biggy and I were leaving the beach. I got sand on the bus and I still feel bad.

Ankle Day 13

It costs 30 000Rp for half an hour to use the computer at this hotel! I pay like 2 000 back by my old place. It bugs me that it is so expensive... but I guess I am paying for convenience. I am stuck. I can't run away and I can't do what I want when I want. I am dependent on other people and it is great that I have those people.. but I am so independent.. that it is ... sucking in my brain. Ya know? I AM the kid who will run home and go to bed when she is done. I can't do that now. I have to wait or ruin people's fun. WHA! hahaha.. I am fine. Everyday is getting better and today is off to the doctor. It will be Sam's first time meeting Dr. Brown! Today at 12 is also the last day of my antibiotics! Sam is making me ask the doctor if I can have beer... there will always be that double standard! He is taking care of his sister.. but come on.. I had a screw put in my ankle I deserve a beer!! They shoulda had a cold Bintang besar waiting for me as they woke me up from my

California Toddler Tripping: The Last Few Days and Home

Here are a few photos and a video from the last few days of our vacation. This was the best family vacation to date. Of course there were tough times traveling with a toddler but we overcame each challenge as a family and amazing memories were made. I feel very lucky and appreciative to have such an amazing life.  AND… one more video: And then… back to the rain :-( We got another patch for Auntie Mary's quilt.
