When you travel!!!!!!!

Postby jaffa1949 » Mon Jun 17, 2013 12:40 pm

You get to see unusual sights, often the meeting of old world/third world and modern tech or other strange thing so I thought I'd start this thread with photos from West Timor the island of Rote a traditiona musical instrument called a sasando made with a bamboo centre, lontar palm fronds forming the sound box. We were serenaded by ancient Rotenese songs until!!!!!!!!!

On the other side of the coin, if you call a friend about the great surf , he ain't gonna get there in time

You also meet some strange vehicles on the road

Not the red bus the other one.......it's a work vehicle>



Please feel free to add your own travel pictures :lol:

The dude must have some rather strong neck muscles from supporting the weight of that instrument. :lol:

well, if it's light and helps getting the girls, then great! (I'd still lose the hat mind you - but that is just me!)
