SATURDAY PM the fifth downpour just began. 11:15pm and steaming hot. lightning illuminates half the sky, thunder rolls like a giant pebble in a can. this has been an extraordinary evening, the softest beauty washing over an ugly town. ...many rains later it is SUNDAY now, my last day in Kuta... and on the menu for today? ...electrolytes and charcoal pills...!
yes, with the force of a freight train, Bali Belly hit this morning... me, doubled over, drained of every ounce of strength, wilted and weak like a flower kitten, every pore on my body , from the soles of my feet to my scalp, flooding with sweat,.. FUN TIMES :) Bali, i will miss terribly, Kuta, Not So Much! So i have cancelled surf plans and will stay in hotel, packing and surrendering to the soothing seduction of National Geographic programming on the television, popping charcoal pills and saving my strength for the travel days to come :)
