Love, Compassion,and Tolerance (from Bali)

Hi,
Well, we're here Bali. But not before 'One Night In Bangkok', and a wonderful time. Briefly, we saw Pink Taxis, beautiful painted buses, and a mall full of people.
I'm writing this from our host's computer. John lives in this wonderful beach complex, but the plugs are all different. So, this will be brief, and we'll pick up the song game tomorrow.
We can see the ocean from our room. There are five dogs. There is a staff of people who do various things, including make the jewelry that John designs. He has two stores that sell the work he creates. One is called 'Street Dog'.
We went to a store called Bali Deli, that was like Trader Joe's. Land here is very expensive, and it keeps going up. Many foreigners retire here, hence, stores like Bali Deli. Oh, and then there's the chopper rental shop. Huh?
Tomorrow we will take part in a major festival that begins with a big gathering at the beach by the house, complete with special outfits. Of course, there will be tons of pics on the Flickr site, starting some time tomorrow.
I hope this reaches you. Have Magnificent Monday.

Peace,
Danny

"Love, compassion, and tolerance are necessities, not luxuries.
Without them, humanity cannot survive.
If you have a particular faith or religion, that is good.
But you can survive without it if you have
love, compassion, and tolerance."
~His Holiness the Dalai Lama, For the Love of God
