Then a trip to Lenek to see the traditional dances of Sanggaar “Bao Daya”. Upon arrival we were greeted by the band and escorted down the street to the performance area. Five dances were performed beginning with the welcome dance. Then came the Keeimol which is traditional music with dancers and singing. Then, two young men competed with sticks and shields in the Prisean . Four children delighted us with the Gagak Mandiq dance- crow birds taking a bath. The Gandrung dance is about love and courtship. It is a social dance and the women chose audience members to dance with them.
