Bali dance

One night we decided to go to a traditional dance. We ate wonderful Balinese food and watched a group of young people dance the "Legong" which has been a part of Bali tradition for centuries. It is described as a "heavenly dance of divine nymphs." The experience reminded me of when we attended a luau in Hawaii, but the dance was very different. The costumes were extremely colorful and elaborate, and the music was beautiful. Ryan loved it (as you can tell by the picture below!) and we all got to pose with the dancers afterwards.
