6.30 AM Sanur Beach.
Dawn on Sunday and it’s all happening on Sanur Beach. There aren’t many tourists in sight- only Mr T and I, one western swimmer and a few expats walking their dogs along the beach promenade. But the place is packed and it’s wonderful to see. Sunday is the main holiday for Balinese and many family groups gather at the beach: some for traditional Hindu ceremonies, others to take a dip and a beach breakfast before the weather gets too hot. The beach is alive with activity as teams of cleaners sweep up leaves and rubbish, lone fishermen look for small fry to catch in nets, diving schools set up for the day as bemos deliver air tanks, and best of all, Gunung Agung pops out of the clouds and makes a majestic appearance. It was worth getting up early.

You and your camera are doing fine things! I have to tell you it makes me smile to see an email come in from an Australian who calls her blog Almost Italian, but is writing about Bali!! Love it.

It is rather odd- perhaps I should change my name to Almost Balinese. I’m glad it amuses you Ardys- I might do an Italian Balinese post next. x

Yes, indeed. And I think that’s true also for taking pics anywhere in the world.
