Ubud, Bali

Now that is a town worth visiting. Still a ton of tourists but a completely different atmosphere. Calm, a lot of nice restaurants and a dozen temples sprinkled in. Our hotel is a dream, with like 15 bungalows built into the slope of a valley. Just those cats living in the wall or under the roof. Those are quite annoying ;). We started our Ubud experience yesterday with a fire dance show (more dance than fire). Today we got up early and had a very nice walk through the rice fields around the city followed by a tour of the monkey forest. Then I had the famous suckling pig (almost as good as advertised) before we fled from the heat around midday. To cap off the day we'll now be having a traditional Balinese massage! After that I'll check the football results completely relaxed. They shouldn't be able to shock me then ;).Read more
