bali-ed out!


2 days 4 dives....a stingray and a shark...and SEVERE MOTION SICKNESS....i'm now padi certified~


so i got an email from a friend rhetorically asking how i did not shit in my pants after seeing the shark...the only thing that will make you shit your pants is the food~..."no fish on mondays?" -- obviously the only way to travel is to disregard all local dining convictions and take the plunge into oral euphoria...of course u're rolling the dice to a game of craps...literally....


anaphoric (not even sure if thats a word) "fuck!" -- got the damn shizzles again!...i think this time its only for one night...couldn't even go out last night....beer shits would have been received much warmer than the painful grab your stomach and wince on the ivory squat.....


back to jakarta in a few hours...back to singapore in a few days...then vietnam by next weekend....i can't wait to try one of those fetus egg thingy's....everyone tells me they're super tasty....


 


pictures:


1. atv'ed through rice paddy's....white water rafted down the ayung river...




2. doing stuff like slingshot alone takes some of the fun out of it...also harder to bargain for a cheaper price...dangggit!



3. ground zero in bali....i gotta remind myself to take pictures of the australian embassy in jakarta



4.  barong dancers.....all these dance shows are pretty bS...specifically made to suck tourists' money...10 minutes in...my ass was numb and bored as hell....the dancers are advertised as the main attraction but they take up 5 minutes in the beginning of the show and their roles are servants....the rest of the show is like a wanna be chinese opera of monkeys, bears and birds....



5. kecak dance...its kind of amazing to be on top of a mountain and see people doing tribal ritual dancings...fire hyms and stuff...but again...show was for tourists...annoying with the constant "kecha kecha kecha woong kecha kecha kecha woong"....i almost felt like busta rhymes was gonna come out and rap over the beat.......



oh yea...the view was incredible...i think they raise monkey's there too..friggin jumped on my backpack...scared the living shizzles out of me...



6.  lastly - durian on the street....
