Bali September 2000

All journeys has a planning phase - this one is taking place in my apartment on Vejlebrovej 

And next just take off - here we have arrived to Bangkok and of course light refreshments were required

This is from the lobby in a nearby hotel where we had a couple of Irish Coffees


To the left - this drawing was placed on the inner side of the door to the ladies room in the restaurant where we had dinner

And now in a whore bar - here some of them with us - nice girls

This guy is the owner of the bar - I do not remember what we were discussing

Most of the photos show a lot of drinks - I wonder why ?

They look a bit doubtful, may be they think, they have to undress ?

Here Carsten succeeded to get a suit without droopy trousers - this was the last photo from Bangkok

Finally Bali - here is our hotel - the name is Swastika Bungalows in the town of Sanur southeast of the island

Like you can see - everybody are relaxing

Massage - this is the best when staying in the Far East - here Tonny is beeing  kneaded

And now Tove's turn to be kneaded - the bodyworker is good but she doesn't speak english

We also went to a nightshow - local dancers entertained

more from the dance show

As the sign says - this is a silver work shop

Right outside the silver workshop there was a cockfight - notice the spurs on the cock's legs - they are sharp like razor blades

Relaxation - it is not the midgets club having their holidays

Carsten & Inga in the bar belonging to our Norwegian friend

Christian in Christian's Corner

Does anybody think we drink too much ?? Poul & Annemarie

We had to move away from all these drinks -here on the way to the volcano Batur we saw a show which lasted almost an hour

And the end - the good guy  defeat the bad guy

Also a small waterfall was en route to the volcano

Here we are looking at Batur Volcano - the weather was bad - actually the volcano had an eruption in the Year 2000

Here you see two volcanos - Tove & Batur Mountain

Batur Lake next to the volcano

Terraces with rice growing

The woman walks with an offer to one of the Gods 

It is not funny to be ticklish, when you are attacked by monkeys - it tickles all over - the monkeys were in a town called Ubud a bit north of Denpasar (the main city on Bali)

Inga with a monkey

Christian nearly lost his shorts - the monkey kept pulling them down

Dinner at Kell's Bar - we made him cook a steak for us all

you have to concentrate when you eat - this shows very clearly

Poul & Annemarie

Kell (the owner) & Carsten

Flemming & Grethe

Here is Christian's whore, Carrot (he got the name from his hair colour) and the owner's wife

Here they are these lovebirds in Christian's Corner

Tove & Inga was in a market - here Inga is bargaining

This is a funeral - everybody is headed for the crematory

They save and save to have enough money for this ceremony and it can last months before they have enough money

In the afternoon we play cardgames

What do you think is on his mind ?

Well the game is on - it is not for fun - beers are at stakes - the loser must  pay for a round

To the right - the owner of Bamboo Bar with a roasted sucking pig - he made this dinner for us all - we were a lot of people that night and he ran out of cold beers

John, Rimma, Poul, Annemarie & Carsten

Christian, Tonny, John & Rimma - and a lot of beers

They are busy eating

This gecko was on the wall all the time we were having dinner  - it is approx. 20cm from the nose to where the tail starts - the tail is approx. 15cm

And now for the nails - manicure on the beach

Tove with a couple of fancy drinks
