Leaving Bali

Music and dance are very important parts of the Indonesian life.

As we left Benoa, we parted with the distinctive sounds of the musicians....

........and the beauty of the graceful dancers.

Ships in the harbor.

Note: Perhaps many of you have pictured me, lying on the beach in Bali, soaking up the sun since my last post.  Actually, I am home now and still working with my physical therapist to help heal the wounds from my February fall. I apologize for not posting in awhile.  On to Perth.....

The motor scooter is the major form of transportation in Bali.
This is not a recommended transport for the uninitiated.

Lined up, ready to dart into traffic.

 Young schoolgirl on her way home.

This nursing mother zipped by so quickly, I was unable to give you the full effect of a young mother, breast-feeding her baby with one hand and steering the motor scooter with the other.
Even our guide remarked, "That is dangerous!!"
