Bali photos

Bummer, holiday is over. But what a great holiday we had!

In a nutshell, we explored Kuta, the beach, Seminyak (where we stayed), went inland to Ubud, saw wood carving, silver-making workshops, markets, the elephant park... and we did heaps of swimming, reading, lazing about, and of course fit in a beautiful visit to the spa for a body treatment.
Our beautiful pool
Lara ... Amanda and I hated the thought of these elephants living in a park carrying tourists around all day, but on the other hand we loved the experience of being able to meet Lara, she was beautiful.
Monica the baby orangutan... again, not happy thinking about Monica sleeping in a cage at night, but her "minder" obviously loves her and looks after her well, and I thought she was absolutely gorgeous!
Amanda and Eric in the rice paddies. Eric was our tour guide for our Ubud trip.
At the wood carving gallery. The pieces were amazing!
Mmm... one of the many lovely cocktails we tried.
Ha ha! I already said we did a lot of reading! Actually, we were checking our trusty Lonely Planet to decide where to go after the beach.
Some of the millions of markets around Kuta.
