December 1st marks our 1 year anniversary and what better way to celebrate then by returning to paradise on earth, Bali. Yup, we’re ditching Vallarta just as the waves are coming back as are the gringos. We’re driving up to L.A. and then on to Bali for two weeks, return to L.A. to handle some of the last remaining remnants of my pre-mexico life and then hot-footing it back down to Vallarta in time for Xmas.
But I’m digressing.
Bali. yes. paradise. wonderful culture. Ubud for 5 days. The ketchak dance. rice fields. incense and relaxation. and then on to the beach scene to chase waves. Surfing is on my mind. Uluwatu, Dreamland, Nusa Lembongan and Kuta last time. This time? not so sure. Maybe Padang Padang, Impossibles, Jimbaran Bay, Medewi and possibly even a day trip to G-Land (if that’s even possible). Yes, it’s the surfing off-season but unperturbed, I’m a mission to enjoy some beach time and some surf time.
So I implore anyone who has good knowledge of Bali (particularly with regards to the off-season), to hook me up with some info on where to find reliable surf. I’m posting to Wannasurf and a few other places and I’m hoping that I’ve stored up enough karmic goodness, to receive some genuinely good advice. Our last trip to Bali was excellent and we found our way to several of the killer surf spots (unfortunately no real swell to speak of), but I read that there is plenty of off-season surf in Bali, if one knows where to look. I’m hoping that the ‘one’ that knows where to look, can drop me a line, cuz to be honest I’m a little clueless. Sure I’ve studied the map and can identify a hefty percentage of the surf breaks in Bali, but I could use some good advice for sure. drop it on me, puhleaze.
Ok, enough groveling, I’m off to scour the Bali-gringo surf blogs. I’m hoping to encounter one or two spiritual cousins of this blog.
