buying the essentials [bali day 1]

After our crazy day of travel, we woke up ready to enjoy the beach. But there was just one problem, the kids and all of my clothes still had not arrived. But the airline had given us some money, and we headed to the mall next to our hotel to buy the one essential thing for the beach. . . swimsuits!

Thankfully our sunscreen and most of our other essentials had been packed in Andy's suitcase. We lathered up, and spent the afternoon at the pool. Later that night, we ate at one of the restaurants at our hotel by the beach and were given quite the show. Look at this marvelous sunset. (these are in order of when taken)



Mightier than the thunders of the great waters,
mightier than the breakers of the sea --
the LORD on high is mighty.

Psalm 93:4



Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD;
let us shout aloud to the rock of our salvation.

Psalm 95:1



Truly magnificent.

We got back to the room, and our suitcase still had not arrived (much to the dismay of the kids). But after they were in bed, wearing the same clothes for the 2nd full day, the luggage finally made it.

  3. I am loving hearing about your trip! I so hope we can make it there this summer. Our company is having a conference there. But we have to get our house sold first!
