I too had a terrible experience on the way back from Lembongan in a small fishing boat, its in the pictures.
Huge waves breaking over the top of us while we were being followed by huge fins..the fisherman said Tuna!!!!

Hi Baliour life
My earliest memories and continuing
I was there in the late seventies early eighties and had a friend called Ketut alias Toothpick in all the trips i had he always looked after us. I decided to find him after the bomb so i chased around the bars in Kuta had a bintang in each (as u do) whilst trying to locate my old friend finally found him in Singaraja.I was so pleased that he hadn,t been hurt or died in the bombing. We hired a car and off i went to Singaraja, pulled up out the front of his little shop and i could hear his wife yelling Mr Ray is here, It was great to catch up with the family only my old mate wasn,t there he was working, his wife called him 10 minutes later the bike came roaring down the road he jumped off before it had stopped, he couldn,t believe i had made the effort to contact him it was a very moving moment.
I was on my third wife by this time so he had a million questions to ask me as to how my previous wives were as he had meet them on all my trips.Within an hour all his family had arrived as i had meet many of them during my trips, My old friend had left Bali before the 1st bombing and headed back to his village, to live once again in the family home, he got himself a job with a builder and worked his way to his current position as foreman, building properties for the Japanese. He showed me all around Singaraja introducing me to all the village locals that we came across, We can not put into words exactly the way we felt, and it was very sad to say goodbye on the day. Since then we have kept in touch and as two old friends now in our fifty,s our thirty odd years of friendship will always be.
