#100HappyDays - Day 37 - Cute kid and cute critters

Seriously - is my son cute, or is my son cute?
Here he is all dressed in red, about to jump on the sepeda motor (motor bike) to go to playgroup.

Once we got there we met this cute little squirrel-ish creature. Not sure exactly what it is, but the cat had dragged it in. It was very young, still eyes closed, and clearly somehow lost its mother. But the playgroup took it in and have been doing their best to keep it alive.

#100HappyDays - Day 33 - More Ubud: cute kid, retail therapy, and farewell dinner at a sensational restaurant.

(Evidently I am not great at catching up on these posts!)

Again, many happy things to choose from on a busy but lovely day in Ubud.

Shopping in Ubud market - in some ways an unpleasant experience, with the harassment from taxi drivers and market peddlers - but I did purchase a very nice Balinese sarong. (Sadly don't have a photo handy)

After a much needed sleep, the adorable son told us he was calling his Cousin Leo in Germany on the hotel room phone.








Our last night together before parting ways, so we wanted to do something special. Sadly, Poppy's tummy was still not good so he stayed home and slept. The wife, the son, the mother-in-law and I went for a sensational dinner at Bridges Restaurant. Very expensive by Indonesian standards - but very fancy, and thoroughly delicious. With beautiful ambience - and white wine!




And capped it all off by finding a tailor/clothes hop open late at night selling some cool clothes, including red thai fisherman pants, dark blue thai fisherman shorts, and a nice shirt to match - all for about $13 and coming home with me. I'll find a photo later.

#100HappyDays - Day 06 - Spec Shopping

Went shopping this afternoon with the always wonderful Bakti, looking for new glasses. Overwhelmed by choice I've come away empty handed, but the Bug bought some for herself, of course. Fun was had. Here's is us goofing around,  trying on glasses we ordinarily wouldn't choose. What do you think?
