Thread: A few photos of my adventure

  1. #1

    A few photos of my adventure

    I was excited to finally make my trek to the other side of the globe recently and just got back this week. It was definitely a very fast paced trip since we were on limited time. I wasn't a part of the planning (my friend did it all) but more of a tag-a-long on this journey and I do know I would plan this out a little differently if I make it back. We spent our first 6 days in Bali Indonesia for some culture immersion and last few days in Singapore for some city excitement. My preference? Bali for sure. It was dirt cheap and the people of Bali are among the friendliest I've ever met. VERY superstitious folks but just so darn happy. LAND OF MANY OFFERINGS is what I call Bali because of their devotion to their Gods and keeping the Gods happy. Their religion is actually a combination of Hinduism and Buddhism with a twist and is unique to their island. The women spend their days making up the baskets of offerings and offer these to the Gods several times throughout the day. Temples are EVERYWHERE and one must not enter a temple in bad spirit. You must be happy and content to enter the temples because it's about making the Gods happy. Anyway........happy happy and positive is the vibe I gathered from the people on Bali and I had a fabulous time. I will be going back. I'd like to share a few photos so take a look.


    P.S. I guess I added more than a few photos.

    Great trip, great photos Alison A lot of monkeys must have peed over the centuries on those evil statues

    I love the temple on the sea - amazing!

    I'm SOOOO jealous! I've always wanted to go to Bali. I think it would be hard not to have Perry Farrell on my mind the whole way there (Porno For Pyros- Bali Eyes).
    How can you have your non-dairy pudding substitute if you don't eat your wok-braised tofu?

    So funny you should say that! BECAUSE I DID! But for some reason I kept singing to myself Under the Tahitian Moon and then would think OH WAIT YOU ARE IN BALI. HAHA!

    I love the squatters and the hose. Who needs to toilet paper when you have a hose?

    Believe it or not they think toilet paper is disgusting and unclean.
    Water cultures vs paper cultures.

    Oh yes and I can totally see their point.......seriously. BUT my concerns are several detailed questions so I would need an instructional on how to use the hose properly. I just envision WAY too many cootie exchanges being that I am a germaphobe.
