after the beach we headed to the padi fields, flat lands as far as the eyes can see. we had wanted to see the golden padi fields (almost harvesting time) but was told that the farmers delayed planting as there weren't enough water this season. we weren't disappointed, the green "sea" was equally beautiful! there was a big temple right in the middle of the fields, the contrast was spectacular. the gods & deities must be working hard to bless and protect the farmers of the area.
Hello Ali,
ReplyDeleteWelcome back! Oh wow, have I missed reading back here. It truly has been a long long while. Quite frankly, my blog has been that quiet spot as well - while you were away. But truly, it's nice to be tic- tacking back and connecting.
I've browsed several blogposts and am' riveted by the pretty pics and even more by the whole experience you've been through. In a way I'm a bit envious, haha! I so wish I could have a similar adventure..or something at least a tad exciting as life seems to be a hummmmmm the past couple of months and so.
Oh, and I love this post you did http://www.mettaville.blogspot.com/2012/06/time-to-face-fears.html
right now it seems I'm in a spot that could be said the same. Anyway, it's wonderful to have you back. The rice greens are all so reviving!

ReplyDeleteI do believe the nature spirits protect our farms and gardens, especially when we are in tune with nature.
Have a great day.
