Balinese chap on Kuta beach with a long pink boat. Kuta is famous for its surfing, and the beach was full of Australians
looking disgustingly tanned and straight out of Home & Away... |
A few days before the end of our holiday we made a trip to Tanah Lot, on the south coast of the island, which is famous
for its ancient (well, 600 years old anyway) temple by the sea. When the tide is in the temple is cut off from the
land, and the sunsets are apparently very lovely. All the local taxi drivers know exactly what time the sun sets
at Tanah Lot, and how long the spectacle is likely to last for. |
Another view of the sunset - this time with Dan mucking about with red filters on his camera... |

Vanessa with Tanah Lot temple in the background. At this vantage point there was a large crowd of other tourists
setting up their cameras and tripods, waiting for the sunset. |
Sitting in a little cafe bar near Tanah Lot temple as the sun went down. We drank beer and ate crisps made from slices
of coconut, before getting a taxi back to Nusa Dua. |
Breakfast by the beach on Vanessa's birthday, 15th November 2000. We flew back to England the next day (a lovely
thirty-hour journey) and by this time Vanessa was feeling so rotten we were really glad to get home! |
