Hello Bali

I had a good day today. I got the chance to go to the asian art museum and get lost in pretty arts. It's not often that I go to museum, even though I really like going to those type of venues. It was a calm and educational day. I learned where Bali is and some of the rituals of Bali. Did you know Balinese are mostly Hindus. Also- the westerner highly glamourize the island to attract tourism, but unlike other island, it is still one of the few that remained to continue it's traditions and maintain (as much as possible) the normal rituals/ lifestyle it once was.
