    Why) The bridge players that we met at the tournament were some of the friendliest that we have encountered during our travels.  This Buckys and the next one both came about because of suggestions from the locals.

There was a lot of Buddhist themed art on display but this "Golden Buddha" by Dewa Sygita Basuki was my favourite in that category.

There was actually a whole lot of art in a wide range of themes.  This is a painting by Tony Diodati called Yellow Boat.

During our tour of the many buildings and levels I ended up taking twenty two pictures.

In this space, I am trying to limit myself to one picture per theme.

We heard that a staircase at the Dunes was worth seeing.  We found three hand crafted wood examples but this was probably the "one".

  Although these next three all appear to be of the same theme, let's call this one my favourite wood carving and ...

... we can call this one my favourite statue and although this next one is also a statue ... 

... it is only being included for its humor value.  Just don't ask me to explain what the joke is.

When you were looking at the chair above, did you notice this image from the erotic art section in the background?

I will close this section with another painting but I am calling it modern or pop art so that's okay.
