@BarBaraPrz @rakski I wonder how many decades we are away from being able to do this. Unfortunately it will be a bit late for us.

If that had wings, I'd swear it was a mosquito.

I really wish Pretty and I could travel there. I'm sure we'd have a good time.

It would be gorgeous I would go! My nephew in his last year of college got invited to go there with his professor to present at a conference. It was quite an experience of course.

A significant number of West Aussies get married there and it's cheap enough for quite a few guests to make the trip too.

@snowy22315 Maybe I could rearrange a couple of the vows a little. I might make him add 'I promise not to wear stained T-shirts when we go out'. What do you think?

Because it's relatively cheap to live there, some West Aussies spend several months of the year there.

@noni1959 I'm not really sure about social security and pensions. I know if we leave the country for more than six weeks, these things stop for us. At least I think they do. I've never really had to look into it.

Some West Aussies go for months at a time as it's cheap to live there. It would be like living in an island resort.

That is interesting and a good way to create art from all kinds of scraps, Bali sounds like an interesting place to visit. I have written about it. I could not afford to go to Bali but if you can I think it is a great idea to go visit Vince's brother and see how he lives there,

My mind was boggling for a minute but WA to me means Western Australia. Usually I write it out in full but, as I had just used it in full, I then abbreviated it. Sorry 'bout that.

I hadn't heard that. It took them a long time to recover from the time in 2002 when a Bali bar was bombed by a violent Islamic group and some 202 people were killed and another 209 injured. Over 20 nationalities were involved.
