Weaving Village

On Lombok Island, our cabbie took us to Songket Village, where women weave beautiful cloth.

I thought we would just watch the process. I didn’t expect to be given the chance to work the loom myself. It was so much fun!

After that, they dressed me in traditional garb and took photos of me in my beautiful new home in the tropics. Haha!

And, yes, I bought a piece of clothing, a colorful blazer that’s light enough for me to wear in Texas (at least when it’s chilly.) I will treasure it.Les mer
