Thank you friends, just wanted to share this ancient Hindu temple on the sea with you. Sambodhan, the stuff I was smoking is Oxygen mixed with Imagination. That's DEEP stuff man, you should try it...in moderation; you might OD on the cellular rush! SsNY, nice observation about my "isolation". Actually, my significant "others" had gone swimming while I opted for the walk. However, I did wish upon the brightest star for my prince charming to rescue me from my self-imposed isolation! :) Preeti, it's not Kuta Beach but one and half hour ride away from the beach. Sapphire, yes, it's back to school for me next week! Mindgames and Confused, amazing is the fact that in the Islamic Indonesia, Bali is the only Hindu island strewn with sculptures of Hindu deities and pagodas. Many have names with Sanskrit origin. Dananah, I believe, for Australians, Bali is THE place to go for vacation, weddings and honeymoon. Infact, the Bali bombing skilled many Australians. However, the countryside still looks untouched by tourism or terrorism.
