I don't blame her. When there are specific admonishments against bowing down before idols, I can understand her hesitation. I don't know that she handled it very well, I imagine she could have just said from the outset, "I'm sorry, it is against my beliefs to bow to a statue like this, I'll watch but I can't participate," but I can definitely see where it crosses a line.
