What does the ghost from Bali say? U-boooood!

Our last stop in Bali turned out to be the best one. Ubud is the place to go for relaxing, culture, pampering and prettiness! Our room was glorious - with a four poster bed, terrace, pool and bath and the town itself was really pretty and bohemian.




The first night we arrived we went to see some Indonesian dancing accompanied by a Gamelan orchestra.







The costumes were extravagant and interesting and the dancing was strange - lots of eye dancing...

Then Jen decided to spend a day being scrubbed, rubbed, bathed, painted and generally pampered at a spa (hey it's cultural!) The lady put yogurt on my boobs...

We visited the nearby monkey temple for a nice afternoon stroll









The next day Matt decided it might be time for his first hair cut in 5 months. He kept the skirt to wear at home though...

So farewell to South East Asia....The next leg of the adventure continues in Australia!
