We enjoyed the beach... (sorry for the huge pictures lopping over into all my stuff on the right side of the screen).
And some strange sights on the beach...if you look closely you can see a bride and groom posing for a photo shoot, a camel watching (because what screams "TROPICAL ISLAND!" more than a camel strolling along the beach?), and in the tree on the left is yet another lady posing for a separate photo shoot. Seriously? We really just wanted to sit under an umbrella and read a good book. To each his own I guess.
We also watched in fascination as the force of incoming waves crashed into these rocks and sent water soaring into the air...
ok, it was more dramatic in real-life.
In addition to the beach, we enjoyed quaint restaurants, like this one on the edge of a rice paddy...
And what's a trip in Asia without monkeys, right? We went to the Sacred Monkey Forest of Ubud. I'm not a monkey fan, but these bazillion monkeys weren't near as obnoxious as the ones from Java that haunt my memories. Plus we found this really cool old Indiana-Jones-looking stone bridge. (See monkey on the railing in front of us and just to the right...or maybe don't see it. It's a gray bridge with a gray monkey on it, I get that it would be hard for you to see it.)
How's this for a sunrise to wake up to? I never tire of the Lord's artwork in the sky...
Thanks for the memories, Bali!
