Aloha,
First af all, thank you all for the nice tips!
finaliy i found time to post my holiday report from the Bali trip.

My girlfrind and i spended two weeks on the nice island Bali (Indonesia). At first i thought i woun´t find any tiki stuff on Bali, but this was wrong!!!
This island is full of Tiki (like) Bars, Tikis in al sizes and Tiki productions.
Let me guide you with some pics through Tiki the times of my holiday.




This was our first tiki detection. This is a Bar called Tubes, it was closed sadly!
You can found the Bar in the Poppies Lane one in Kuta.



Only some meters along in the same road we found the next Bar with Tikis, this time the doors were open. The bar is called Swell and is a surfer bar in the heart of Kuta.






A few days later we were on a trip through Ubud (the artist village in Bali) to the Vulcano Mt. Batur.
There i accidental found a production of 5.000 Tikis which are made for selling in Hawaii.
I asked the boss of the wood carving industry if he could sell me one or two piecees, but he said that the tikis go to Hawaii in the next two days and he have no extra pieces. Bad Luck.
Behind the showroom i found the production place in the middle of the jungle, it was amazing.



In Ubud are crazy artists with incredible skills.


Here you can see a surfscool in Kuta with Hawii Tiki layout.





Some pics from nice Balinese architecture.
