Hi to all who care (Halbs, max_payne etc)
Just letting you know that I won't be travelling to Bali in December - my travel companion and I had a 'conference' thisevening about what to do.
I think my main concern was not 'what if...' but I was scared of being concerned over there and not being able to relax - and of course thats something I wouldn't be able to tell until I was actually there. With this in mind, and still completely undecided and perhaps preparing to bite the bullet and just go, I toddled off to meet my friend for our discussion and I bring up the topic:
"what the **** are we going to do about Bali hey?" Her reply: "Well actually I've sort of made other arrangements for that time because I knew you were unsure, and you did hesitate over some other things earlier in the year". Problem solved and decision made without tears, arguments or hair-pulling. Disappointment, yes, longing, yes, but a decision made which is a relief.
SO:
Thanks to all for your advice, JBR's, Help with queries and for getting me excited over the last 6 months - unfortunately i'll have to put it all away for the future. Who knows where my travels will take me in my lifetime. Maybe back to Bali, maybe not. The world is a big place, enjoy it wherever you go.
Cheers
