#462 Thursday 22 December

Yay .... Mummy is here!  It was a delight to see Kaylia's reaction this morning when she woke to find Mummy in bed beside her.

Today it was a late sleep in to recover from the late flight.  It was amazing to arrive at the airport last night and see the changes that have occurred since I arrived on the 13th.  The parking area for meeting arrivals is now a l.o.o.o.n.n.g.g  walk under a covered walkway from the actual terminal.  Far enough that they have a restaurant half way!  I shudder to think of how elderly people will cope.

After breakfast at Gardenia, Kaylia and Naomi went to the beach while I went hardware shopping .... small plumbing parts that need to be replaced etc.

Then it was pool time followed by Big-H.  Then home for more pool time.  Tonight we'll try "Alfreds" ... an Italian restaurant in the next street - Danau Poso.

During the trip to Big-H, the Lovan top-up was needed.  It works well and the anxiety was soon under control again.

7:30pm  .... no Alfreds  ... lil miss dictated Macdonalds for tea ... sheesh.
Still ... it's been a good day.  Lanang came and did step one of the water supply re-vamp.  We now have a automatic pump control on the top tank ... so it will turn off when the tank is full.  The water pressure from gravity feed is not sufficient so I have bought a second pump which is to be plumbed into the tank and will boost the pressure for showers etc.  It means that we have a water supply even if the power is off.

I have also finished the waterproof coating on the roof of the garage (where it had been leaking).  Now I can await the next rain to make sure it works!

  1. Yeah, I have to consider myself an elderly person now. Don't like the sound of that carpark walk. OTOH, surely the enterprising Bali guys will start up a pedal taxi service?

    Glad you're enjoying things.
