I've been in Ubud now for 2 days and honestly it's more like living in a boat than on land cause it's been raining for the entire time. I don't mean your gentle pita-pat of warm, summer scented, life giving essence.
It is like a cow pissing on a flat rock.
It's now 1:30am and the beer has run out and I'm down to a friends home brew bourbon and it is still fecking raining. I spent most of the day driving to and from the airport bringing people back from their 2 hour overdue flights (thanks AirAssia - it took off 2 hours late but did then tell us in Denpasar? Fuck no!). But it has all worked out and everyone is happy. And I still have the home brew. Merry Xmas all.
