The missus went of this afternoon to see a girlfriend and I was relaxing with a cold one and a good book - very Sundayish when the dog goes off and I hear female squeals coming from the gate. Upon examining the disturbance imagine my delight to see not one but two long black, slim, brown skinned local beauties cornered by my stupid dog. Upon questioning what was up they gigglingly informed me that they had come to wish ME a happy Valentines day. Immediately concerned with the legality/potential of the situation I asked (as one does) after their ages. Imagine my disappointment upon hearing they were both only 17... Jailbait, still. Now I may be many things but an object of desire for 2 lovely 17 year old's, unfortunately, isn't on that list, and I do know that. Can anyone tell me what these girls were thinking? I really have no clue what that was about. I chatted for an appropriate time and then suggested they be on their way as my resolve and good intentions were fading fast - they were magnificent as beautiful, innocent, young Balinese women can be. As a parting shot they apologized for not bringing me chocolate...Clueless in the East.

Does this mean Sundanese people if so Ive never seen any reading a book other than the Koran

I think the Balinese think of it as a general celebration of love rather than romantic love. According to my Balinese wife, you can wish your kids and parents a Happy Valentine's day. Aduh!

P.S. what does sundayish mean. Does this mean Sundanese people if so Ive never seen any reading a book other than the Koran[/QUOTE]Similar to mondyaish noonish Bali time?Once while eating breakfast at warung every morning for about six months, one of the lovelies after cleaning rooms returned with a large red flower she placed in my long dark but mature locks. Her hand lingered on my shoulder a brief moment, just enough to get my attention. She and her partner in crime sat there quietly smiling at me for a few minutes when first one said, 'sherm maybe you buy us Magnum es krim"?If my wife were present I suspect it was her trying to set me up.

Being the champion Magnum buyer in Sanur, I know a bit about this valentine's day rubbish. DenpasarHouse is spot on with the way the Indonesians look at the day. It is a day of general love for every one. The best friend of my wife gave me a rose and a kiss this year. My female staff kissed me. The male staff moved too fast, so they did not have to kiss me. (I will move faster next year)

I promised my wife a valentines day romantic evening in a posh restaurant. She actually spent the day in a separate hospital bed in Prima Medika while I fasted for my colonoscopy and was anaesthetised.Do you think she still loves me?

For Valentine day I went to Sunset Beach Bar & Grill at Intercontinental, that was Magic! Most magical is when you go for instance in Nirmala Grocery during a Balinese Holiday like for instance Kuningan day and all the Balinese women wear their traditional clothes, they are beautiful![ATTACH]2694.vB[/ATTACH]
