Aug 21st 2016 - Mauritius - day 5 (Bali pic review)



So I have been sticking to my goals.  Exercise, music, and writing for three days in a row.  So far so good.  Yesterday I also made some art for three songs that I just recently finished, one if them with my buddy, Chuck, aka Bounty Hunter.  Here are the pieces of artwork for the two Theory releases.




On that note, I have posted several new psybass tracks to Soundcloud in the last two months.  Have a listen if you are interested.  I also did the artwork for each of them as well.









Also yesterday, the landlord stopped by and brought us some cooking essentials and also let us know a water cooler is on order for us.  That will be nice so we can start getting the big blue bottles instead of buying water by the liter at the corner store down the street.

Him and I also chatted about fishing here in front of our house.  He is going to bring me a fishing pole as well as a hand-line setup.  He told me how to catch sand shrimp at night along the shoreline with my headlamp, and said that when he was living here they ate fish nightly.  He said when the freezer was empty he would fish for a couple hours at night and catch 10-15 kilos of fish each time.  So I am looking forward to that.  Hopefully I will be successful. The fish vendor down the street always has fish for sail.  It varies in price. Squid was about $5 USD per pound, fish was about 1/2 that.  Not too bad, but free would be better.

We also learned how to recharge our phone and wifi with data when we run out, as well as check the balance.

One other cool thing was that in the evening I noticed some movement towards the ceiling in our kitchen. Upon closer evaluation I realized it was the most vibrant gecko I had ever seen.  I snapped a picture with my zoom lens.  He is a welcome housemate and hopefully will keep the bug levels low in the house.



OK. Now for a look at some past experience.  I didn’t blog in Bali, so I thought I would show a few selected pictures.  We met some cool people, went on several cool adventures to the volcano, water falls, the monkey jungle, and overall had a really awesome time.  I am only going to post a few of my favorite pictures, as our data here in Mauritius is pretty limited.  There is a place with free wifi, so maybe I can get a bit more posting of pictures in while going there for a bite and some food.  We will see.
