Living in China has brought us many opportunities. We've seen so much and done so much. We feel very grateful and fortunate to be able to experience all the great wonders of Asia.
Besides exploring China we also wanted to venture out and see Bail, Indonesia. What can we say.... "It was amazing!". Everything is so alive and fresh! The people are really nice, very happy to welcome foreigners to their island. Not to mention the FOOD! The food is to die for. Everything we ate there was delicious. :)
Bali is like being in your very own "Discovery Channel". It has amazing forests with exotic wildlife. The further you get from the tourist areas the more you get to experience the true Balinese Culture. People working the rice fields, children and their parents taking baths at the lake and not to forget the women balancing those amazingly heavy baskets on their heads.
We learned that about 80% of the people are Hindu so there are more temples than homes. Every house and business has their own private temple. (Below are some pictures)
Spanish Translation (ST): Viviendo en China nos ha dado muchas oportunidades de mirar partes nuevas. Hemos visto y hecho cosas que nunca no huvieramos imaginado. Hestamos muy agradecidos por tener esta oportunidad de explorar Asia.
Aparte de explorar China queriamos visitar Bali, Indonesia. Lo unico que podemos decer, "fue asombroso!". Todo se mira muy vivo y fresco. La gente es muy linda y amable. La comida esta delisiosa! Todo lo que probamos nos encanto. Bali es como estar en su propio programa de "Discovery Channel". (Canal de educacion). Bali tiene bosques asombrosos con miles de animales exoticos. Lo mas lejos que se va uno de las partes turisticas, mas mira uno la cultura real de Bali. La gente sembrando arroz, niños y sus padres bañandose en el rio, y las mujeres balanciando canastas pesadas en la cabeza.
Aprendimos que 80% de la gente son Hindu y ay mas templos que hogares. Cada casa y negocio tiene su propio temlpo privado. (ay fotos abajo)
