bali.. day 5...

2nd January 2011...
my final day in bali...

deck heading to the lobby...
to wayang restaurant for
my last breakfast here....
the koi pond completed the landscape....

my breakfast place...
watermelon craft...
fruit decoration...

when i was having my breakfast...
i heard a very soundly music...
wonder where it came from....
traditional music alive...

     flower at the ladies..
they change the decoration everyday....


perfect landscape with water elements...
flora & fauna...
just cool and calm....


it seem like this little girl also love
frangipani...







this flower got very nice smell...

the trees at this hotel resort look matured enuf...
make it look completely perfect....

Big tree over a Pura...
heading to the beach...

Butler Station...
a simple nice landscape...
clean n green....


Sunset Restaurant
where i celebrated my
New Year Eve....

the private beach....

The decoration of the wall look very nice
with touch of natural elements....

even a flower pots got
bali touch....



Lotus

bird's cage...
hanging on the tree...

This is my room....
Flower at the reception...
i was about leaving...
huhuhu....


Fence of the grave yards....
reminds me to waht my driver told me...
every single village had their own grave yard
since everybody needs to go back to the
root when they pass away....

there will be many ceremonies after a person died...
atleast the family need to do 30 days ceremonies...
it won't be cheap...

after the 30 days...
they need to clean up the person sins..
they need to go every pura in bali...
it will take atleast 2 days to be done...

and one more thing...
if the person never involve in any
of the village mutual cooperation,
the family need to pay to the leader
to bury the body there...

bone handicraft...
where i went after pick up my jacket and bag...


my favorite..
but i didn't purcase since
the price was about rm600...
it just 6cm tall...
very cute, nice detailing for that size...




grrrrrrrrrrrrr............

scary...
but if u look at the positive view...
isn't it incredible?...
look at every single details they carved...
from a bone they can turn it into a very nice craft..
how big a bone can be anyway?....


there was a funny & pity story behind this bone craft...

on my way to Kintamani...(2nd day)
i saw a lots of shops selling this craft..
so i asked my driver...
"what is that white craft made of?"
the answer was.....
"they wear white cloth when they go to pray"


hu??!!!


i did not asked again...


till i went to a shop at kuta (3rd day)
then i saw the white craft again....
i asked the girl...
BONE HANDICRAFT...
but i did not purcase since
they were big...
and the carving design was not my taste...

on my way to bedugul on 4th day..
we stop by legian to pick up my jacket
but i was unlucky since the shop closed on new year...

i saw a shop selling this bone
handicraft and reminded me to ask the driver....

he said maybe i can get it at the shops in badugul...

so, at bedugul while i was stunned with the views...
my driver went to the shops there
asked for the bone handicraft...
but it was negative....

on the way back to hotel...
i did asked my driver to stop
by legian since i saw a shop selling the craft that morning....
we went round again and again but cannot find the shop...
i pity him so i said...
"enuf....not my luck"

the next morning (5th day)..
on my way to pick up my jacket...
i saw the shop again...
so i asked the driver to send me there...
i was lucky that day....
