I've been very bad about keeping up with stuff here on DW lately - even before the trip.
Anyway, I've been out of the country for about 10 days now - since last Saturday 3rd. Went all the way through Bali, saw so many temples and waterfalls and beaches, and now I'm in Tokyo!
The tour starts today around 4pm, and let's just say, I'm not ready. I need more sleep (even though I got a bit more earlier) and I'm rather tempted to sleep until 11:30am, toss everything that's out of my suitcase into my suitcase, and tow it the 8 minutes to the hotel where we're meeting and just skip walking around the area.
One pic, and you'll have to go check out the rest at my Flickr.
You should be able to click on the picture and it will take you to the site and you can move forward and back to see the other pictures I've put up.
That site is Tirta Empul, IIRC, which is a temple complex with natural springs which people have purified themselves in for thousands of years. The concepts of these gates - candi bentar - is very typical of the Balinese culture.
