E-mail from Jen

Hi there, just wanted to let you know that though I am in Bali at a CUSO conference, I am staying/working nowhere near the places where the bombs went off last night and though some of the CUSO staff were out in areas near the bombs to have dinner, they are all back safe and sound - though some were quite near the blasts and are quite shaken up from the noise, chaos, fear and trauma of being on site. Sadly, it seems that there have been quite a few deaths and injuries as a result of the explosions. My plans haven't changed: I intend to fly back to Bangkok Monday evening and return to Laos early Wednesday morning.

Miss you! love, Jen
