Well, what a relaxing day in Batu Karas! I've spent most of it sunbathing and reading a book while Sam's been surfing and we went for a couple of walks too. Just had a great thunderstorm too (I love a good storm!).
We're staying in a lovely bungalow with a great garden to sunbathe in.
While I was sitting on the veranda I did a sketch of what I could see. I'm planning on colouring it in when I get around to it. It took quite a long time, there are a lot of lines going on there!

Sam snapped this photo of me by the beach after a long sunbathing session!
I love the boats here, they're all painted lovely colours and they look so interesting with all the fishing equipment in them. I'm going to have to sketch one while I'm here.

Here's where I spent most of my day!

I did a couple of sketches over the last few days which I couldn't upload due to the internet speed so here they are now!
This one's a strange one! The Every Day in May challenge for 26th May was 'draw a screw', so here's mine.

While in the airport waiting for our flight I did another sneaky drawing of a fellow passenger. Nice headband!
I did a quick line drawing of my open bag. That dog-type thing is a cute pencil case which Sam gave me as a birthday present.

I couldn't be bothered to colour this next one in completely, so I settled for just shading the little platform thingy in the sea.

We're just about to tuck into a delicious evening meal at a lovely beachside café, so I'll leave you with one more photo snapped on the bus on the way here. Looks a lot like Vietnam we think!
