In Reply to: JBR - Griswalds go to Bali - Pt 1 posted by Ellebana on Tuesday, 10. May 2011 at 12:13 Bali Time:
Thanks for the feedback everyone. You've inspired me to keep writing (when I can find some quiet time). I'm working on the Accommodation JBR at the moment. I haven't forgotten the lady who wanted to know more about the Padma.
We did definitely need a drink by the time we got to the Holiday Inn, and it took a few days for me to feel like I was actually on holiday, but I got there eventually (once the Nanny started!).
Regarding the question about blogging - I've had a few online writing gigs over the years, but just don't have the time any more. I felt very rusty writing the JBR, which has in fact inspired me to try and get back into it more often.
Also, re the Trunki for our 2yo - it was actually a Godsend. B2 is a runner and we found that the Trunki actually slowed him down and made it easier to catch him. It also meant that he could look after his own portable DVD player, snacks, ruggy etc; which meant one less thing for Hubby and I to carry. If anyone reading this was on our flights they would be sure to remember him - he was the little blue-eyed blonde who happily (and harmlessly) rode his bee Trunki down the aisle on the Jetstar flights.
