Bali - part one

We just returned from our one week trip to Bali. It was absolutely fantastic.

We enjoyed the beach, the temples and the seafood dinners. Here are some pictures of our first days at the beach in Nusa Dua and visiting the Tanah Lot Temple. Tanah Lot is the temple by the sea built by the 15th century priest Nirartha. The temple is one of the seven sea temples by the balinese coast. You can read more about it here.

Around the property

We were almost going on vacation when I realized that you did you receive a proper tour of our Vietnamese estate. So here are some pictures... Enjoy!

And you would think the resort would be famous for its seafood...

That truck still works!

MiniVan Stuff

Our child has just graduated to growing baby-fat, but we are going crazy around here…

We already have the room ready, a stroller and some clothes. Yeah… I love when people just think of bringing us stuff because they saw something tiny and cute…

So let us present you the MiniVan wardrobe at the respectable age of 23 in-belly weeks…
