There is much beauty here in Bali. This is the grand daughter of one of the male helpers here at the Ananda Cottages.Luso lives in a hut in the jungle, but stays on the property when groups are in residence. He acts as a nighttime security guard and sleeps amongst the stacks of pillows on the floor of the Wantilan. He also is an expert at climbing the tall palm trees for coconuts.
Today is a slow Sunday. Much more to my liking than the full on schedule we normally keep throughout the week.
One of the boyz in the training, Made [the youngest in the training {22} and the most obnocious Balinese I have met here] actually called me lazy on Friday. An unusually direct accusation for this culture. This was after the two-hour walk that exhausted me and pushed the boundaries of my bodies limitations. I was an hour late to the morning session and I just observed the session of working with pregnant women.
What a brat! Pictures of the Balinese boyz to come. Having downloaded them to my Ipod I am lacking the necessary cord needed to access them.
The training is coming into the home stretch. We are now practicing doing full sessions with partners and on the teachers.
Home soon!
Peace & light,
Bonnie
