A quick post we'll make just to comment on the absolute crazy madness of masses of bodies everywhere, fireworks going off in full force for about six hours, and a full moon lighting Kuta Bay.
(Pictures will follow once the hotel gets their little Year 2010 password problem fixed! :) )
An absolute sea of fireworks were exploding, all along the miles of beach, almost like the Wave in a football stadium, boom!---down to the south, then moving up ... here... then there... up to the last explosions to the north end of the beach, and then all over again!
Thousands and thousands of people, and, of course, one must specifically note the roving packs of shirtless, drunken, "friendly," raucous Aussie lads who were just going down the beach and street from beer store to bar in their spirit of New Year's revelry. Ahh, can't wait for Australia.
And the Blue / Full Moon made the evening skyline really gorgeous and almost surreal.
And, oh man, the Indonesians are just nuts for noisemakers of all sorts, creating a nonstop cacophony of horns and whistles all along the beach!
As a final note, it was really odd seeing images of Auckland, New Zealand celebrating New Year's about five or six hours before we did on Bali. And, of course, we here on Bali got to New Year's thirteen hours ahead of Philly, friends, but I think everyone's caught up now, so Happy New Year, everyone!!!
