Kuta


Some people come to Kuta, Bali to party but I will always think of Kuta Beach as the place where Peter and I learned to surf.  We went out for the first time at sunset and just as we successfully caught our first small breaks, the sky turned an awesome shade of pink, orange, and yellow, the colours deepening as the minutes wore on.  It was amazing to be in the ocean doing what we were doing at that magical time of day.  In the midst of swallowing a ton of salty sea-water, paddling out with all our might, and attempting to actually ride a wave, I simply had to stop and think about where and how happy I was at that moment.  

When we weren't on the beach, we wandered around the maze of streets around Jalan Legian and made transportation plans for exploring more of Bali.  Kuta was just the beginning!
