Here's to Bali! Which means
'animal' in Sanskrit. Right after we left they had that act of terrorism right
near where we had stayed. Remember the nightclub bombing? Pprior to that,
when we had visited Paris right after we left they had that bombing of the
tunnel by Algerians. We have been lucky a few times.

Wonderful remembrance, thanks for sharing it.
Yes I
loved visiting Bali as a child. We would stay up late watching
the
performance of scenes from the Ramayana in the village we stayed
near
(this was pre-TV days there). Something about the monkey-god,
can't
remember much more of the play except the masks, the gamelan
music, and
the feeling of community coupled with excitement in the
Balinese night.
Also ate duck eggs and sweet rice cakes there for the
first
time.

all the temples there. And we had a priest at
Besaikih do a puja for
our happiness. This was before I went Buddhist.
However on the flight
home it was Saka Dawa, which means the full moon,
and the flight goes
all night for like fourteen hours straight. The time
we left was the
full moon, and it was full all night on the airplane, and
since we
were going west the moon had just started being full when we got
back,
and all in all it seemed liked the moon was full for three or so
nights. Strange synchronicities come about through a rotation of ones
reference point. Partners are one of the strongest synchronicities of
all. It's nice when things line up ;)
