I was able to spend several days on the island of Bali in Indonesia in 1987. One of the many memorable things we saw were these terraced rice paddies in the mountainous interior of the island.
The picture above was scanned from a slide.

That is a beautiful image of terraced paddyields!
This is quite similar to upcountry rice paddies in sri Lanka!
We also have rice terraces in Banaue. Like these, gorgeous and amazing feats of labor.
These are so beautiful and interesting...quite a feat!!!
Hi George. It's been so very long since I last landed here. I'm happy you are still blogging.

Oh my, we were in Bali in 1988, such a beautiful place. We loved it, thanks for the memory.
(PS Betsy wants to go on the riverboat cruise again in case you didn't know!)
This is a very artistic picture. The terraces create a lovely pattern.

Wow that is really cool. It's a work of art!
First I must tell you that Betsy would love to go on another riverboat outing! Second the photo is amazing!
That's an amazing feat of agriculture! These farmers know how to get the most out of their limited resources.
WOW!!! This picture needs to be enlarged to really see the details.This is amazing.

That is an interesting picture today. I have never seen rice patties like this. Great showing. That is firewood, but thought it looked like a dog's head.
WOW... your header image just DREW ME IN! I can't wait to follow you to see what you share next on your hikes!
Happy NEw YEar!
That's what I always liked about Indonesia: the rice paddies!! They are typical of Indonesia. But I don't want to go back, for the bad memories I have of that country.
The uniqueness of Indonesian society, we feel not eat if we have not 'met' the rice, though already eat 5 pieces of breads!.
