Bali - Day 6

Edlynne waking up to a lazy morning. Daddy still sleeping...

Dinner while waiting for the Kecak & Fire Dance.

Just a note: Kecak Dance is a ritual dance created in the early 1930's for the movie "Island of the Demons" by the German painter and intellectural Walter Spies. It have a impressive circular chorus of bare chested male singers (I think about 50 of them), chanting over a heap of fire.

The dance was in a temple. It was dark and starting to rain. I quickly covered the sleeping Edlynne and went into a shelter to watch. Didn't saw much. It was a bit boring with the chants and at some parts I nearly fell asleep too...
