A few weeks ago we headed to Bali with Ma Ma, Gumps and aunty Robyn to celebrate Robyn's 21st birthday. Your dad didn't come as he'd been to Melbourne the week before with your grandad to watch Tottenham play so it was just the five of us.
We stayed in a villa in Umulas, which is about ten minutes north of Seminyak. It was an awesome three bedroom villa with a great pool that you spent most of the week in.
As usual, you were great on the plane and slept most of the way there. There's something magical about the white noise of planes that always seems to put you to sleep (you did the same on the way back too).
On the first day we visited a bird park and reptile park which you loved, as well as seeing the monkey temple. Check out the photo below of you and me holding parrots - you weren't too impressed but you didn't freak out at least!
Later in the week we visited Seminyak and went to the shore to show Ma Ma the beautiful beach and then buy some cheap DVDs. I loved the fact that you could identify Shaun the Sheep, Peppa Pig etc and just kept grabbing those DVDs and putting them in the basket (I was happy to buy them all - they're $1 each!).
We enjoyed massages and pedicures and your Ma Ma, aunty Robyn and I also took a cooking class while Gumps looked after you which was probably the highlight for me.
It was a very relaxing week and you had a ton of fun throwing pebbles in the pool all week and just generally walking around in the nuddy because the weather allowed it and playing on the steps of the pool. I managed to do some study and sewing so was super relaxed (which was great as it was likely to be our last holiday for a while).
None of us caught Bali belly thankfully (the worse thing you had was a cough and a runny nose). You were obsessed with red cordial which I think helped :)
Thank you for being such a great traveller and for travelling to your second country with me darling boy.
Love you
