Picture post!

Here are the photos that I didn't have time to put up in the last post.

First, some ogoh-ogoh:
This one is Hanuman, the monkey god, fighting against two naga (dragons).
I think it was somewhere between 15 and 20 feet tall. Later that night, they carried it around.


This guy is Ravana, the king of the Rakshasas (demons), and the villain from the Ramayana.
He was even taller than Hanuman -- note the people standing next to it.


From Gunung (Mount) Batur:

The view from the top! You're actually looking at two mountains. The one in the front is Mt.
Abang,and behind it (you can only see a tiny bit directly behind the first peak) is Mt. Agung.



Also the view from the top. In the left is Lake Batur, and behind it is the Kintamani ridge.
This whole area is one big caldera from an eruption waaaaay in the past.
