    If i had not known you were in Bali..i was sure it was Little India in Singapore...so much tge same..
    Amazing.
    Been to Bali so many time but had no idea all the Gold/Fabric place existed.
    So there you go..another great variety that you just know how to present.
    Was hoping to hear some news on Damien.
    Thank you for the wonderful effort you go to, although it does not look like effort.
    It seems a natural course of events for you.
    Keep up the great work😊

      There are specialty shops in different areas of Denpasar: an entire neighborhood to buy fabrics, stone sinks and tubs etc. whatever you want, it could be found in Bali. I wouldn’t buy gold from Bali unless I knew it was a authentic gold seller. Here in Alaska where I live, there are many gold mines where they dig up the gold and you know who they are. There are several gold mines where I grew up and it’s very common for women to wear gold nugget jewelry. Some family gold miners make about 1 million USD per season. They still live modest but have real toys like airplanes, dump trucks, etc that common ppl cannot afford.

    I love those fabrics, will probably go bananas over there, bought 4 fabrics in Fiji 3 metres each, the lot cost me about $80 AUS dollars
    Love the Balinese style hair clips, all looks great 👍

    Fabolous Fabric shopping @ Sulewesi Street , across from Bandung Markets most shops alomg that shopping strip open around 10.00am
    Variety /choices is mind bogling. You have to be prepared to be hassled!!! big time . There are touts / ladies who get a commission from shop owners , they can be a real nuisance , pain in the bum, aggressive at times and very persisant-- glad to see Muzza and Vee didn"t have that issue
    I really enjoy a stroll along that area, a visit to Denpasar isnt complete with out a visit to Sulwesi St
    I get a driver for half a day, visit shops, have lunch at Hong Kong Chinese Resturant -- near Bandang day market or go later in the day and end up at Night Markets
    Either way a vist to Bali is complete with out a visit to Denpasar
    i don't visit the gold sellers so can commet

    When the gold lady gave you a price to buy at $100 per gram I'm assuming she meant Australian hundred as if she meant USA $100 per gram that is a lot more than current gold spot price.
    One of those big fat gold necklaces will do me if I'm feeling indulgent and reckless 😅

      horrid, driving here is a nightmare because there are so many scooters on both sides of the car and you can never see them, Parking is also a nightmare. I have a car and we ONLY take it when we have to. it takes 15 mins to Kuta from here on a bike, and can easily be over 1 hour in a car

    • @MurrayWilkinson1
      @MurrayWilkinson1  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      1 man's meat is another man's poison. By your standards it is not right, by theirs it is survival..
      Don't forget the Buddhist lady that spent over $100 on birds just to release them to the sky.

    • @Ludo-logy
      @Ludo-logy 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@MurrayWilkinson1 I have no problem with anyone needing to survive, but there are a lot more animals in these types of markets than are just for food. It's more about the conditions they are kept in and their treatment that I dislike. Yep, it's great that the Buddhist lady was releasing the birds, but at the same time they had to be caught and stored for her to do that, and many are caught specifically for this reason and other religious rituals. I've been to Japan, South Korea, China, Burma, Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia, so I'm well aware of the living condition and hardships that many people in these areas have to live. But that doesn't mean they shouldn't treat animals better .. having more of a Buddhist approach.
