Week 33: Elder & Sister Miller’s 45th Wedding Anniversary in Bali

August 21, 2018  

A 1 hour and ten minute flight to BALI!  Hindu Culture Experiences in Bali…. Elder and Sister Miller’s 45th Wedding Anniversary 

August 14th, After a wonderful week we packed our suitcases for travel.  Elder Miller and I sent our 17 year old grandson on a “Trip Around the World” plane ride home to Utah, Elder Miller and I boarded a short one hour and ten minute air flight time for Bali, and our driver embarked on an overnight train ride with his wife to Jakarta for a family wedding.  
Our driver in Bali was a young man with two children who is Balinese and devout Hindu.  He not only drove us but taught us about his Hindu faith, traditions and lifestyle.  Bali was a very different culture from our experiences in Solo Indonesia.  We appreciated the “offerings” in the vehicle and everywhere we looked around us.  He told us in his family compound and family temples they shared 60 offerings each day.
