Checking to the hotel Bail-fornia (Sofitel)

Celeste is calling to tell Duffy we made it in one piece (I think he was a little worried) I am waiting to go eat!! The Sofitel was a lovely hotel and the staff was wonderful.

Celste, Ruby and I having lunch

Celeste, Ruby and I stopped at a great Italian restaurant to have some lunch after alot of shopping and touring. Fabulous food and company!

My adorable niece Avery

Avery is full of life and a very girlie girl! We had a great time together in Singapore and she loves dresses and makeup as much as I do!



Makayla, Ruby (Rosie, Squish & Oreo)






Makayla is going off to school. Ruby is ready in the car seat and the pets are sending them off! Celeste house is a busy place in the morning and has given me a new sense of respect for Mother's everywhere.

Little India






Celeste, Ruby and I visited a beautiful Indian temple.

Balinese Dancers

The Balinese dancers were wonderful and the costumes were amazing. Each dance told a story about the culture.



The Spice Farm in Bali



Celeste and I visited a spice farm in Bali that grows coffee, tea and every spice you can imagine. Very beautiful. They also provide you with tobacco and rolling papers at your table instead of bread and butter hmm.... (don't worry Mom we did not light them)

Volcano Fields in Bali

Celeste and visited the Volcano fields in Bali. They are still active and are located in a very quaint town. Be careful of the street sales men and ladies, they think NO is a definite yes!

Rice fields in Bali




We visited a small charming town in the mountains of Bali where they still use ox to pull the wagons through the rice fields. It was surreal.

Batik weavers in Bali



Batik weaving mill has been around for generations and everything is hand made on wooden looms and hand died. The ladies who work there are masters at their craft and it was a wonderful place to stop.





Celeste and I visited Bali and these are a few of our photos.
