Balinese Dance at Puri Saren Agung, Ubud
February 06, 2010
Learning Moment: Ubud, Bali, Indonesia
You know how they say "You can't go back"?
And, you know how it is mostly true?
Well, doesn't it make it that much sweeter when you can go back?
That's what I'm finding on this trip.
We had a great time revisiting Chennai. And we had a great time revisiting Singapore.
Today, we landed in Bali. It's roughly our 10th visit to Bali. We always worry that it's changed while we were gone.
Bali is one of those places that just feels different. It's a combination of incense, humidity, ocean breeze, grace, humor, and authenticity.
Well, as soon as we landed, I knew that we were back.
And I mean back, as in, back in the arms of a friend.
It just felt right.
Tonight we went to Puri Saren Agung to watch the Legong Dance.
It was stunning, as usual. The gamelan was invigorating, the dancers were spectacular, the audience was appreciative, the night air was sultry.
It was, in a word, Bali.
We had an excellent dinner at Cinta and returned to our room.
The plan for the rest of the week? Lather, rinse, repeat...
