It's Vanessa's Birthday!!




Today is Vanessa’s birthday! It is also Nyepi, a day of silence in Bali. Even though this is a Balinese tradition it is an official holiday throughout Indonesia. Vanessa’s organization decided to move the holiday to tomorrow (Friday) in order to have a three day weekend so Vanessa has to work and has a meeting in the evening as well. I made pancakes this morning for breakfast before V headed off to work. I will pick up her cake now. We will celebrate her birthday on Sunday by having brunch at one of the hotels here.

This pics you see are the effigies they burn to ward off evil spirits and V helping Zee open his gift from Grandma Dotty.
