Last week we all took a virtual trip to Bali via Skype. An acquaintance of mine,
Jan Reynolds who is the author of a series of books about vanishing cultures across the world, has spent quite a bit of time in Bali researching the Balinese rice farmers for her latest book entitled
Cycle of Rice Cycle of Life. She is currently back in Bali with the rice farmers and wanted to Skype with us to share some of her findings. Jan introduced us to a young Balinese woman who said hello to the children (this ended up being their favorite part). We saw a statue that was 1/2 man 1/2 elephant, 2 men playing a beautiful and unique piano, orchids growing on trees, and lovely offerings created from grasses and flowers. It was a very unique experience. We are looking for a classroom somewhere in the world that would like to become our Skype pals!
