Bali Day #8, July 14th 2013 - Hanging Around Jimbarin Bay and Kuta

We made plans for today, but it rained really hard in the morning so it threw us off.  We went ahead and rented scooters/motorbikes from her cousin.  2 scooters, 10 days, 4 helmets, (800,000/$80USD). 

The day we arrived, we found out that one of Sani's relatives had passed on.  We attended the funeral but for some reason, we were not given the right time so we showed up at the wrong place at the wrong time.  We did make it though and it gave us all an opportunity to meet her very large family.  

Later, Chris and I went out on the Motorbikes.  A quick trip to the Dickies store yielded Chris a pair of Osiri Skateboard shoes.  We returned to the resort to drop them off. We then went to the local maret where I bought a handmade kitchen knife and a over the shoulder bag. 

Next, Chris and I went and had 90 minute Shiatsu massages for a total of (180,000/$18USD). 

After, we headed to Kuta, ate at KFC (had 2 piece chicken, rice in a bag and a Pepsi).  Bought some trinkets and returned to the resort. 

Sani had Chris and I make a run to MM Trolley, a local grocer, to but Mango juice and BBQ potato chips. 

First, pictures of the rain storm.

The actual cremation. Note the large propane cylinders.  




The Bali girls really LOVE Chris. 



Cremation is almost done.  Kind of foul smelling.
