More Bali Photos

After a couple of beautiful days in Amed, Heidi and I drove from the coast into the mountains. As we were just getting a little hungry we past a pig roast on the side of the road and we called to to join the occasion. I pulled over and asked if there was anywhere to eat...... unbeknownst to us there we were invited into the reception of a Balinese wedding ceremony. The picture above is of me and a villager swoping hats for a minute. It was a unexpected and beautiful experience.

We had the intentions of hiking Gunung Agung Bali's highest peak but we were to find out that there was a Hindu festival occuring and therefore the mountain was closed to hikers. However, we were able to spend time at a magnificent temple Pura Pasar Agung.

In Hindu temples it is mandatory that people respectfully cover their legs. Fortunately, the ever so friendly guide allowed us to borrow some. It was quite comfortable!

Everybody is into wearing flowers in Bali, women, men, children and even temple guards.

On the last couple of days we met up with Heidi's Dad and Step-Mother in the south of Bali. It was an eventful couple fo days of touring and enjoying the resort. Here we stopped to test some awesome ginsing coffee.
