The Kecak and Fire Dance was at a temple just a short walk from the hotel. We didn't read the programme synopsis but vaguely know it's about Rama and some evil king, with an appearance by Hanuman, the monkey god. But we were so tired after an early morning flight, the sky was dark and the music hypnotic, we took turns nodding off. Zzzz...
Man on a "horse" in a "trance" running over hot coals. Whether real or not, he got big tips from appreciative ang mohs.
Another morning, we spotted kids at dance training at the Ubud Palace and the temple next door. Funny to see some boys grimacing to get their steps and expressions right.
He's the rising star. Sharp and precise movements and just the right surprised look and rolling eyeballs.
Experimenting with Blogger's video upload. If resolution is bad, I'll revert to YouTube.
