Hammering Man

Tuttle from The Seoul Patch clued me in on what has been a big mystery for the past year an a half. That strange moving statue near the Seoul History Museum. It is eveidently part of of a series , of sculptures, created by Jonathan Borofsky, called Hammering Men, built to celebrate "the worker". Wikipedia has a decent write up about the topic if you're concerned. You can find other Hammering Men in cities around the world.

Statues of Bali

I was so fascinated by the stonework in Bali. Every restaurant, temple and even nicer homes had many beautiful statues. They often put their daily offering and incense on or around the statues, as you'll see. Most people in Bali practice Hinduism, unlike the rest of Indonesia which practices Islam. It was so amazing to see a different culture. I'm so accustomed to the Buddhist style that I've seen in every other country I've been to here... it was so refreshing to see something new.
