17 After Af Hard Low Cervix

e. .. packs!

course, Christmas, especially because of the gifts is becoming increasingly prey everywhere (and then we complain about the crisis ... big spenders!) S and gifts 'will also gift wrap, of course!

For us, the gift bag is of course made up of two items: wrapping paper and staple or tape. It 's always been like that. And it was one of those things so natural and never imagined it would not be changed.
The emergence of self-closable bag with bow me a little 'left perplexed to say the truth, but at least they have always been the staple or tape, and the general idea of' cute packaging + staple 'was not then modified so much.

Until we came to Indonesia.
I still remember when, in the most well-stocked shop in the area we tried the ribbon from gifts, from classic to curl with scissors. Nothing. Not even the shadow. Or the prefabricated
flakes, or to pull those sides that curl on their own ... nothing.

Perplexed, after buying only gift paper, we approach the banquet where a couple of girls put together the package. Assuming that the tape would be added to them during packaging.
system to wrap the gift in the paper is different from start to finish. I know, you say, how many ways there are to want a package? Yet it is so.
card here costs a lot, and even the wrapping paper, then do not go to waste even a centimeter, I say, one millimeter.
The packaging begins taking measurements and checking goods and cutting the paper to be of a size so small that I can not even wrap one side of the gift, let alone everything! Only one side is left 3 or 4cm of transhipment than the size of the package. And we
there, overlooking the banquet to watch the girl, thinking that will not make it and that we'll never go to queue at the cash because he cut too small a piece of paper and will never be able to wrap the gift.
Yet she seems sure of what he does.
began to attack with a side of the tape to one side of paper gift wrap and then to finish with one, or perhaps up to 2 mm, the overlap of the paper. Fiuuuu ...! by a hair! think we waiting for the other two sides to close.
Then turn the packet and closes the bottom, with the same pinpoint accuracy to which the card is really very little overlap. Other than my package with a square meter of rolled paper two or three times around a tiny little box!
Then there is the high side of the package, and there are 4 or 5 inches of surplus, and she takes the scissors and starts cutting. And then you say, mha, this is strange, he did the other sides without losing one inch of paper and here is to throw away a strip so great! But no. Not only cuts off all but a piece diagonally. Millimeter, natual. And then he began turning the package over and under the paper and left and right and in a moment with those in more than 4cm card you pull out a decoration that is four of my bows!
Lovely. And there are a thousand different forms. EECCA what I've received this year, we could call an origami-package:

almost sorry I open it!

Biggest Number Recorded

Bali, as we said yesterday, is full of tourists. And we have fun when we go there just to make the tourists ... massages on the beach, contact the junk stalls, etc. ... On one side is a bit 'strange effect because we speak the language very well and knowing the roads and places, with the rented car and so on, it seems like when you go from Piedmont to make the weekend in Liguria! It makes us feel vacationers, and so every now and then while driving Cri Suan tapped horn for no reason, just for fun, and I start squatting on a few steps to chat with some ladies of anything local or negotiate something that does not buy either!

Between 'turistaggine' and one we came across a dinner with lots of dancing. What's more touristy than this? I think the dinner show is the apotheosis of the tourism trip ... are not you? Of course we could not stop us, although we've seen dozens!

I leave you with some 'photos of the girls dancers of Banjar Shindu Beach in Sanur, Bali ...

Selamat Tahun Baru Balinese Dancers!

Even with a little 'delay we are here to wish you Happy New Year, Selamat Tahun Baru!

We were taken by a whirlwind, actually a double vortex ....
in Italy, within three months we have been, we have not had time to stop for a moment, and then came here, I think I fast enough to recover our spaces, but ... worse than going at night!
We have been in Singapore for a few days, commissions on commissions ... I do not understand why it is that every time we go to Singapore to spend our time running errands: go get the laptop left to care (that was so BAD ONE of everything and it's been changed), go find a guy, buy this and that, meeting with foo ... but intrammezzo holiday from work before going to the Indonesian Italian! Well, at least that the time zone you do not hear either! hihihi now and then I can write all I want accented with Italian keyboard! eeeee aaaa IIII ... is such a release! although it took me a while 'to get used!

back to us when we arrived here at home in Indonesia have found joys and sorrows, as always ...
The new house with whitewashed windows and the dressing room is beautifully finished, we are still using the Joglo and garden were in a sorry state! None
cut the grass and we found ourselves in a dark forest, the forest so that the PEM had not at all want to come here to open the doors and windows for fear of snakes in the tall grass, so he left everything closed for weeks! I do not say ... in the middle of the rainy season! I only say that we're not done now to wash all clothes, towels and blankets that smelled of mildew and all were useless!

2 weeks after we went to Bali to celebrate New Year, do some 'commission (again) and buy some' things for the new house.

intermezzo-Small-
Beware these two Japanese who have caught at a party the night before:

you fully dressed with traditional clothes (I wonder how long it has taken to piegarselo so behind his back and his elegant dancing around like crazy in a feast of Indonesian and Russian with a lot of mouse ears and combined luminescent flashing colored!
It is not over, after a while, 'a Russian lady is drunk went to get the Japanese girl flashing her ears, she now we still have some 'bad, then pacatissima has moved away from the party and after a while' came back with the head of a plush bunny ears! He had the 'reserve ears'!!!! What I wonder is if he has bought in Bali, or if the case is brought in from Japan along with the kimono!
really live in a cartoon ... indeed, in a Japanese manga cartoon!

Small aside - this time in Bali was invaded by large groups of Russian peasants, rude and do not know a word other than the Russian ... mha.

Now I close the parentheses is the interval and then I close this post confused, I promise!

However now we are back home at last, we are planning to move to the new house, sleep in the guest room because we are not ready yet and is not especially mobile and we are beginning to design the garden. In the coming days promise
photos galore!
Kisses to all!
