Our little Legong dancer

Before leaving Ubud Hollander had a few hours of pampering and was transformed into a Legong dancer.  Balinese girls from about 7yrs learn to dance for temple ceremonies (and now the tourists).  Its a beautiful dance involving ornate costumes and head dress, with darting eyes and flickering fingers the dancers express the story of a kings ill fated war over a maiden.
