School break is over. There's a middle school just over the wall near us. Sound of lots of kids. A new man on the loudspeakers. I miss the former one who had a kinder voice. Occasional band music like a high school marching band where I come from. A woman signing a schmaltzy song like something from Lawrence Welk. The man again going on and on. Last year there was a lot of this for about a week, then just for a while some mornings starting early, maybe going on for hours on a Saturday. There's a lot of variety in it but not the best there is offered here. This is Bali.
