Dreaming in Dreamland

Dreamland beach was another favorite of ours. We enjoyed watching the surfers carve impressive waves and relaxing with our friends, soaking in the moment. We spent the better part of one afternoon just sitting on the rocks as the waves crashed around us, drenching us in the sea water.
The children of Bali are beautiful. These little boys were having the time of their lives playing in the water. They weren't afraid of anything. While they only had one body board between three of them and they didn't let that dampen their fun. All three would sit on it at the same time waiting for the next wave to come. With their combined weight, however, they only moved a few feet each time a wave came.

Dreamland had a shore break as well as a reef break and you could play in the waves if you were brave enough. Near the shore the waves were anywhere from 5-7 feet, while those on the reef were upwards of 15 feet.

The sunsets were magical. Although they were beautiful, they were also a bit gloomy, we never wanted the day to end.
