Ceremony in Sakenan and Tanah Lot
We depart from Kuta earlier to see temple ceremony in Sakenan , located in Serangan turtle island. When we arrived, there were already load of people coming. Now, all of them come with cars and motorcycles as bridge has been built to connect this island to Bali. Before they came by boat.
People have to wait in queue before get the turn to pray as many people from all over Bali attending this ceremony. We spent some time observing the crowd and the ceremony before continuing our trip to Sukawati art market. After Sukawati we drive up to Bedugul area to see Temple of Lake Bratan. As it was one day after Kuningan (Manis Kuningan),a holiday time, we noticed many local Balinese people visited the area. Not to pray but for sightseeing and fishing with their family or girlfriend.
We had our late lunch at near by Muslim restaurant before drive down to Tanah Lot. In Tanah Lot we saw many people doing pray even though the temple anniversary of this temple would be held in the next few days. However, the temple has been decorated with penjor, flag and umbrellas. We end the day with a good sunset here.
Been working as a Bali tour guide and driver for over 15 years. Still very much enjoy my work as I meet many different and interesting people. Things on the road are changing all the time and I would like to share some of those that I show. ------
Taking pictures have been a hobby for me for many years. Now, I am still struggling to make that a hobby as a job. Wish me luck please.
