Home sweet home. We were welcomed by an very excited Kratos and the couch - overnight flights aren't the most fun in the world, especially for those doing the flying!

Reason for travel to Bali: Massage. This was taken at the second massage place we went to in as many days. This one was the best by far - if you're ever in Bali try out Bali Orchid Spa. I've never been so relaxed!

First daylight impressions of Bali - HUMID! The floor was wet with humidity but I thought the effect of our footprints was pretty cool.

Art took me with him to Bali as he had a two-day layover there. We arrived at 2 a.m. to pouring rain - this is how it looked.
I couldn't help thinking the whole time we were there that Elizabeth Gilbert (author of Eat, Pray Love) had been to this very airport and that was really cool. I'm such a dork!

Sancia and Yoko came to our place for language exchange so I thought it only right to provide yummy stuff for afternoon tea from the local European style bakery. LOVE their cranberry custard danish!

We went up Datou mountain with Alex and Yoko for a cup of coffee and Taoyuan's night view. I liked the sign of the cafe - which was open air and very full!

Yet another gorgeous Taipei day. This one was taken after I had had my first hike up Yangmingshan (YangMing Mountain). This photo looks past Jiantan MRT station towards the mountains.
AWESOME day!

An absolutely stellar day in Taipei as Art and I headed to Silks Palace for a work dinner. It's days like this that make me love this city even more.

My post-work, pre-tutoring ice-cream. Ate this whilst finishing off the last bit of an Ian McEwan novel. Nice.

Yoko and Kratos on the roof. Kratos was sick the night before so I worked from home to look after him. By afternoon he was fine and dandy and gagging to play some ball!

I saw my book in a bookstore and got ridiculously excited. And then took a photo.

The best sandwich I have had in Taipei EVER. Absolutely addiction making - I will be back!

Black bean beef (it was meant to be pork ribs but I defrosted the wrong meat bundle) and home style tofu. I'm getting the hang of this Chinese cooking lark!

Not for the faint of heart! We fed Kratos a whole raw chicken for breakfast and he LOVED it. Can't say I was a huge fan of the process but happy to see him enjoy himself.
