The road to Xanadu, second take

Decided to write a longish prose-poem about the Bali adventures. Have started, but slow going...
Meanwhile, David and I have discovered the sheer delight of the swimming pool in the garden; the water temperature is perfect. We dip at the end of the day when the sun's heat is not too extreme!
Wish I could swim with the camera, there are some wonderful pictures seen from water level, with the grassy fringes of the pool sharp against the empty sky beyond.
The peaceful air wafts warm across us as we pull ourselves out of the water.
There are times when life approaches the idyllic.
But we do not forget the other side...
