Crap Resolution- Temp until real stuff comes in

Update: Prambanan made the headlines recently ( May 2006) when it was reported to be damaged during a powerful earthquake. It's a real pity considering that reconstruction efforts were nearly finished when I was there in Feb 2006. Recent photos suggest that the damage was significant, with large pieces of stupas and carvings scattered all over the ground. .The temple has since been closed to the public until damage can be fully assessed.

Not too long ago, shopper diva and greedy diva paid homage to the goddess of high adventure in Angkor Wat. The experience whetted their appetite for more so they packed their bags and left for Java to find more strange gods and goddesses which dwelled in temples of stone. Well, the divas did find them and were ( gasp! ) pleased to find the temples in manicured gardens and only 17km from the nearest mall. This meant that they could still get their manicures and their adventure! So happy were they, they got into a dance of joy at Prambanam.
