Day 27, 28 & 29

Gypsy and Ann swung by for our first and only date night.  So…one might ask, what did you do?? We had adult conversation with Richard & Richard, a same sex couple from Quebec who are in Indonesia working at the clinic Tara visited the week prior.  After getting out later than desired (the kids didn’t get dinner till later, etc) we took a cab to their place which was south of our location around the Monkey Forest.  Once we arrived at their place we realized how screwed we really got with Villa Rasa Sayang.  They paid $700/month for a 2 story Western style house which had 2 king size beds and 2 outdoor modern bathrooms located on the edge of a rice paddy field – to say the least, it was paradise.  Richard, the chef, made us a wonderful dinner while we spoke to Richard the Forester.  These 2 were wonderful to speak to and committed to helping others.  Tara and I on the other hand are barely capable of looking after our 2 charity cases.  For the night tho – we had freedom from the bonds of parenthood - ahhhhhhhhhh, nice.
