to a couple guys in the band.

3 new short videos to watch!

It's Silver Week now! The whole country gets mon-weds off, but since our normal weekend is thurs-friday.. we get 5 days off! We have no major plans really, so it's time to catch up!

Here's a link to "in the fishbowl." a Imageography project that Leigh and I had started in July, and just finally finished up the edit. We are really excited about it and would love to hear what you think... please check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yeAOzm2yawY
and share with your peeps ;)

here's just a couple clips to entice you!






While in Bali Cori and I did an Imageography piece with her art. I called it "Bali Art Department" and you can watch it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjN3x8FILsE
It's really cool to see how her work unfolds and all in the beauty of Bali with traditional music!
You can see lots more of Cori's amazing work here: http://corijacobs.com/
Please share with friends!




On September 11th Jeff played his first gig in Osaka! You can watch him sing "When I Paint my Masterpiece" here: http://www.youtube.com/user/jbolton941
Hopefully there will be more of that to come...






Hope you enjoyed the videos! We are really happy here creating art and music and now that it's turned fall- almost, it's even more enjoyable being in Japan.
Love to you all!

Enjoy! M&J





More salad rolls and raw goo balls:)

Been on a major healthy eating kick lately, trying to balance out and
get my irritated Osaka skin back to normal- and hopefully better than
ever! This health kick has me staying away from dairy ( as usual) but
also wheat- impossible for me but I'm trying... And so that pretty
much leaves a diet of greens, fruit, and fish! Which I am excited
about but it's also daughnting buying fruit here:( $2 alpples, $6
peaches-forget it! But we've been making due and today I made more
tofu salad wraps and tried these raw ball things, these will be
nothing like the ones we had in Bali, but I had to try.. They are
cooling in the fridge now.. Will report back.

Oishikatta!

That was delicious!

Da beach

At the rather popular tourist site- Tanah Lot were you pay a small
donation to sample or cleanse with the holy water- spring water that
flows out the big rock on the right. The after sunset was the best
part...

Cori enjoying a cup of tea and the sites at Kintamani Volcano area

Very amazing!

Rice terreces along the way to Kintamani Volcano area...

Jeff lounging at the Bali Buddha

Where we enjoyed many smoothies and yummy meals!

Lounging at the wonderful house we called home during the week in Bali.

Rice patties abound

Although they are much less now with all the foriegn investment eating
up the land.. It was great to see the rice patties at all different
stages of life, this one was accross the road but luckily the ones out
back from our porch were lush and tall!

Religion is everywhere

In Bali the majority is Hindu. Which makes for beauty all around. The
intricate carvings and offerings are everywhere and I feel so lucky to
have attended a large ceremony and a wedding,wow the Balinese really
know how to make a foreigner welcome!
