July 8, 2006-Back In Bali

I arrived in Bali 24 hours ago and just getting settled in again. I will say that I arrived to some solid 10ft waves yesterday and today was still pumping, but not as big as yesterday. Just another reminder of why I love it so much here! All of the surf pics below are from Balangan for those of you who are familiar with the area.

On another note, I am definitely starting to feel at home here. Picked up my new motorcycle yesterday after I landed at the local Honda dealer. It’s nothing compared to my Harley, but for here its great. Also took it to the local welding shop to have my surf rack made as well as a camera mount on the front of it so that I can video while driving. It’s always an adventure when I get on my bike. Well, I think I am over typing and thinking at the moment so just enjoy the pics below. Oh ya, the surf pics below are not the greatest because I didn’t shoot any photos until the afternoon and by then the lighting was bad. Anyway, for those of you who surf you’ll at least be able to appreciate it! The journey continues……
