Bali Sept/Oct 2012 Motorbiking Pictures

The following is a contiguous selection of "best of pics" during an hour or two stretch when Kim and I were riding  in the southern side of the mountain region of Bali.  It had just rained a LOT, as it was the start of the rainy season. So we improvised, I found a rolled up tube of plastic for sale at the local market, and when the weather looked relatively clear, we started off again.

 I think all of the blurry, "motion" pics were taken while I was riding at speed, and simply holding the camera, either in front of me or behind.  To me, these pictures are hypnotic, and obvious justification to spend $$$ to fly to Bali and rent a $5/day motorbike and ride around with no apparent purpose.

Scenes from our camp on Coligny, Hilton Head.
The Tiki Hut at the Holiday Inn Beach House on Coligny Beach on Hilton Head. This is THE happening beach on Hilton Head.  There are others, but they are not near a significant commercial center, like Coligny is, so Coligny gets manner more people.



Billy met some folks while inspecting a big hole near their blankets.
