This is my friend Phillipa from Trinidad and Tobago.
Yum, coconut passion fruit tarts from Bali Buddha!
Phillipa and I took the batik class together. One day I drove her home and convinced her to shoot a video of the drive. It's in the scenic rice paddies north of Ubud. I wasn't yet comfortable driving with a passenger on the busy streets where bikes weave in and out of moving and stopped traffic through tight spaces. It's tricky maneuvering a bike with a passenger when you need to go slow. The drive takes us right past the temple that's having it's 40th year anniversary ceremony. Luckily we were around for the big parade at the end of the week-long festival. Here's some shots of that:
Temple Guardians
Beautiful women in ceremonial dress.
They sure do have style,
they wear cute little bustiers under lace tops.
Add a sarong and sash and you're formal...NICE!
Man, their parades move at a brisk pace.
Men often layer sarongs
These headdresses are made all from leaves and flowers.
This was at the end of the parade, I think some boys are getting tired!
